    Takkyu_ga_suki No I really would throw my bat at him! 😁
  2. Cure for the EJ

    So Avalox P700 actually seemed quite flexy and a bit wishy washy. Actually seemed a bit slow. I have acquired a Korbel SK7 and A Xiom Solo, both of which I have tried before. The following is based on 1 practice with a lp bh guy I have played for 25+ years, we are of a similar standard. My...
  3. Can a player serve better with a less spinny (arguably) rubber?

    Today I managed to try Fastarc G1, I am thinking of moving away from Tenergy 05fx for various reasons. Anyway I think I hack serves not brush them in general. My serves are not great. Today I hacked my serves with G1 and seemed to be getting more spin and variation than with my usual 05fx...

    If I ever lose to someone wearing trousers, I will throw my bat at that player and never play again. How rude!!
  5. What is the right way to improve my backhand?

    Yes fair enough, its worth considering though, sometimes even strong players in sports go back to basics to correct a technique as I am sure you would know as a coach yourself. I would get coach to look at you shoulder and wrist then. A lot of good players have too much movement in upper arm...
  6. What is the right way to improve my backhand?

    If you can not push, but more so drive and block with backhand, I have a theory you should not be trying to bh loop. IMO BH loop is technically the most advanced and hardest shot for most players, although some players naturally seem stronger on BH. Unless you can play 100 bh in a row without...
  7. Fastarc C1 and G1

    I ordered some G1 in the end today, might as well try a big change if trying a change!
  8. Is there a way to responsibly recycle dead rubbers?

    yes give them to a coach who can glue them on a bat for a beginner
  9. Fastarc C1 and G1

    I have decided that Tenergy 05fx is a bit bouncy, too bouncy and that these days the negatives of that outweigh the positives, especially with the ABS balls. So I know Fastarc G1 is often touted as a less bouncy but still spinny alternative to Tenergy 05. I have never really used the harder...
  10. Barefoot shoes

    I think barefoot shoes are ok more grip but wear two pairs of socks for cushioning

    I served like that as he had pimples and I thought I could attack 3rd ball a lot. But he has a good fh if you serve loose. Honestly, I have been playing with ABS balls recently. I find them slower, less spinny, easier for opponent to deal with my pimple hitting, which had been getting better. I...
  13. Cure for the EJ

    I tried a Flack W7, it was not quite right for me.
  14. Video Footage Safe Thread

    Thanks, good comments. It nearly always comes back to footwork with me. Someone commented on weekend that I take ball too late sometimes on fh when there is no need. TBF he is a much much better player than me, so I was pleased to give him some problems, he is not at his best in this video...

    Here you go. Me against a very good modern defender! I am not playing very well at the moment, had a dip in form recently.
  16. Cure for the EJ

    On this subject I am going back to 7 ply wood. Been playing quite well with MLC and getting good results, but don't ;like the way I am playing and its making my bh pimple shots weak. I just watched some videos and wow, my bh has gone backwards by using MLC with pips. So just ordered an Avalox...
  17. Foot stomping

    This is the email: "xxxx is correct when he says that the rules concerning stamping were removed some time ago. In making umpiring decisions it is not always a black-and-white issue and in the case of stamping an umpire should use their judgement as to whether the stamping is adversely...
  18. Foot stomping

    Just to add some fuel to the fire. If foot stomping by your opponent or on another table is genuinely distracting you, you can tell the umpire. The umpire can act on this and warn the player not to do it then follow disciplinary procedure for un sporting behaviour. Although thus is up to the...
