Well, even Xiom aren't bold enough to claim Omega VII is, what, 20-25% faster/spinnier/whatever than Omega V or even Vega Pro. So I don't really know why anyone who is not a bored/desperate EJ would even bother.

The difference in the arc (and the subsequent ball dip) on Timo's loops as compared to Dan's is amazing. Also Timo's deceptively simple looking serves have so much variation. Dan - thanks a lot for this.

http://www.customtabletennis.co.uk/ has both Omega VII's for "only" £45.99.

+1 for the allround bat with Sriver.

Accidentally stumbled on a new variation of the shovel/jab serve: Highly recommended at 10:10 in the last leg :cool:

Unless you're already 20, there is probably a chance. I am not very familiar with the state of TT in your country. You just need to look at this in a realistic fashion and ask yourself some questions like * What is my current national ranking? Is it junior national ranking or senior national...

There are many instructional videos on youtube featuring Ma Long where he demonstrates his footwork and techniques for looping, serving, etc. You can try to emulate his technique. Record yourself doing the same shots, drills. Play your videos and the ones with Ma Long side by side to see the...

[SOLD] For sale is a Tibhar Samsonov Force Pro Black Edition FL, 86g. Used for one practice session and 4 matches so it is almost like new (but for traces of glue on edges). Will ship to UK or EU only. Payment via Paypal: £26 or €30. More photos are here...

When there are objectively measurable results. * Beating opponents you could't before. * Moving up from a lower division in the league to higher division. * Regularly playing in tournaments, and finishing a season with a higher ranking than at the start.

Nah, 22 min to St Pancras and 6 min to Stratford International. Easy peasy.

Saturday and Sunday, from St Albans.

Jinxin Wang's ittf post is another great summary of why China's domination is unlikely to change in the near future.

Well, one can easily make an argument that anything besides T05/Evolutions and H3 has been deemed superfluous by the market. But then marketing departments would have nothing to do, would they? And so we have Nanoflex Kr - the sponge from Hype Kr plus topsheet from Nanoflex - "new" rubber sold...

Fair enough. Still, a very surprising strategy.

Andy, how do you know Samsonov used K1 at T2APAC? Did he say so in an interview?

Considering the dearth of Google search results and/or raving reviews of these rubbers as compared to the number of results/reviews of evolution family, I'd claim with a lot of confidence these massive sales remain imaginary. There's no way a pro like samsonov will alternate between rubbers...

I am just trying to understand the logic behind such marketing decisions. There is clearly a very healthy interest in tacky rubbers and tacky/tensor hybrids outside of the Asia market. Just look at the long threads on all major tt forums each time a new hybrid appears. Go to www.tibhar.de - and...

Can anyone shed any light on why these rubbers are not for sale in any European TT web shops?

I try to concentrate on the flight of the ball over the table and to judge the amount of spin on the ball, almost to the point of ignoring everything else. No matter how fast/hidden the point of contact is or whatever pre/post-contact deceptive motions the opponent uses physics takes over once...
