  1. How do you deal with nerves in matches?

    What is helping me with match nerves is similar to your first suggestion. I judge myself on how successful I am at getting the first attack, not on the outcome. This is in practice and also tournament matches that "count." So instead of thinking about the score or the outcome, I think about...
  2. Ultimate TTD coaching!

    This Tibhar video shows ball control exercises for absolure beginners. Starts at 1:00 after a long open. The 11 year olds could probably get through all this in a week and start doing more on the table, a bit longer for 8 year olds.
  3. Why are Evolution rubbers still less popular than tenergy?

    I finally figured it out. Tibhar is paying a couple guys to be their social media department and go around all the forums posting stuff like this. Seriously, why reply to a post from 2015, on a topic that has literally been covered one million times, if it isn't a paid post? Must be the money.
  4. New DHS 40+ Ball - TTNPP (Is it fake or is it real?)

    Just be sure you get the DN-picture boxes, not the old ML boxes. What's insane is that Nittaku charges 5-6x the DHS price for a ball that is no better.
  5. Robot training Robo Pong 2050

    If you could get human partners to do drills and feed multiball with you that would be way more effective than a robot. Robots don't have real visual or sound cues of spin or direction. If you get used to hitting with a robot you can lose the habit and skill to pick up those clues and end up...
  6. What is the best way of prolonging the life of Tenergy?

    You don't need to use a protector sheet but it won't hurt anything either. Just clean with water after play, keep in a case and out of extreme temps and sun. Should last several months depending how many hours per week you play.
  7. Practice match, tips?

    It looked like you played a lot of passive shots with your fh, especially pushing some long serves, even though your fh attacks are really good. You should take the initiative with your fh any chance you get. Your defence away from the table is strong too. Closer to the table your fh block is...
  8. Stiga quality

    Yasaka blades are excellent build quality. Just my $.02. You don't hear many complaints about Nittaku either, if you want to buy a premium-priced brand.
  9. Watching pros makes you better, and we should watch women players

    I prefer watching the top women. Their hand speed and touch is unbelievable. Also in the men's usually one player takes control of the point and ends it, which is kind of boring to me. The women battle for control and sometimes it changes hands 2 - 3 times in a point.
  10. Best setup for Yasaka Sweden Extra

    Mark V sux. Lots of forum experts recommend that stuff but none of them use it thenselves. It was a bad idea to change your blade and rubbers at the same time. Try the same rubbers you used on your old blade, so you can evaluate the YSE. Then if it is still too fast, change the rubbers...
  11. Attacking against long pimples

    To answer your actual question most times if the pups player pushes to you - you cannot push it back. The ball will pop up and he will smash it. It is a little more complicated because different LP rubbers are very different in how much spin of their own they can create, and how much they...
  12. Training mentality in table tennis

    Changing an entire club may be impossible, but you only need one or two other players who want to practice. You could contact local TT coaches to ask if any of their students wants to practice outside of lessons. You might have to take a lesson to find out, but that wouldn't be all bad. Most...
  13. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    Congratulations NL, O40 state champ is really cool. Is the black anti on the Seemiller guy?
  14. Slow down a blade or speed up the rubbers?

    Most people posting these equipment questions are probably not in the 2000 - 2100 range where you live, so your answer may fall into the category of true but not that useful. If the OP plays in a 1400 - 1800 range, then over the table play is likely not the dominant factor that fh looping is in...
  15. Win a FREE Rubber from Tabletennis11.com!

  16. Rubber with highest Throw Angle

    Probly true, but if there's equipment to fix it that's way easier.
  17. Rubber with highest Throw Angle

    Dang, I was hoping to find a rubber with higher throw than T05. I can't keep the ball off the netcord with that stuff. Sorry to hijack, but is t05 the highest throw rubber period, or is there something higher?
  18. Pro players that don't boost

    This doesn't make sense to me. So you are saying Butterfly makes a boosted version of Tenergy for the Pros that they could sell to us suckers as a "National version" for maybe $200 a sheet, but they don't want the extra $$$$? Doesn't sound like the Butterfly I know.
