This was TV gold. Watched the whole thing and really enjoyed it. Thx for the vlog Dan

WH would sometimes train with TPB. But yes rarely would pull it out. I think TPB still has its moments. Say caught in a crossover between FH & BH. Easy to use TPB here. I also happen to think the side-swipe chop motion Ma lin use to do is easier with TPB vs RPB. But I've seen Xu Xin do it...

Youtube video mirroring So this is pretty cool. If you're like me and have players whose games you want to emulate, sometimes you like aspect of a player's game but they're left handed when you're right. Or for me, they're right handed but you're left. That's where this handy tool comes in...

i once was looping with a buddy's shakehand blade holding it penhold to feel it out.... Smacked my forehead with the bottom of the handle as i was in that salute type position. #ouch

100% my experience also. I loved my Clipper for SP play. But not so much inverted & looping. That and I think that blade is a pinch fast for me.

It's crazy that he's only 5'4 112 lbs according to wiki. That is just one tiny man. No doubt for him to hit at the power & speed he does, he has squeezed every bit of power & maximization he could possibly get out of that frame. An interesting thought thought is that say if Koki was 6'0 and was...

Everything you say sounds like my newest favorite blade I'm currently playing with. Gambler Fire Dragon Touch. 7 ply 5 wood, 2 carbon (off) speed Very controlled. Lots of gears. Can play the slow shots or the fast ones when you want them. I'd go that. Note: This link is the shakehand...

Nice David. You got game. Nice FHs. I subbed on youtube. Hopefully see some more uploads from you. Would be curious to see some matches from you to see how you approach different things. Service receive, etc. So just curious, the FH looping at 2:00. What do you like to do? I have a lot of...

Different experiences for players at different levels. Given my intermediate level, I really high on my more controlled, more spiny (flexy) Gambler Fire Dragon Touch coming form my more stiff and faster Stiga Clipper. I couldn't be happier with the results. I've told myself over & over that if...

Ma Lin best server to watch for me. Like his style. The amount of spin he could generate. His after fake motions. He had it all. I do really like Ma Long's standard pendulum serve. The sweeping around motion. I read or heard once pros talking about how deceptive it is and that he's really a...

Yes for sure lack of focus. I spotted him 4-5 early points that last game, which ended up being somewhat close. If I don't let my guard down coming off a game win there, maybe I snag a 2nd win and really get him on tilt thinking "what's going on here?". Just that maturity and knowing when to...

As promised, here's my full match vs Daniel (USATT 2071) He took this match 3-1. Some of my thoughts or impressions: - A lot of sloppy serves on my part. When I watch overall how high they are, I have a lot of loose serves that get away from me either being a fault or too high & easy to...

Well while the main members of the CNT are dropping like flies, Xue Fei just took down his 2nd under 21 championship at the German Open after taking the U21 in the Austrian Open back in September. He played Timo Boll a few months back and had that match wrapped up but in Timo fashion, Timo came...

Among all this excitment for the main draw in the German Open, I completely missed that my new fav penholder Xue Fei (best current RPB on the planet) took yet another campionship in the German Open men's under 21. Congrats to him. Hopefully we'll continue to see him thrive. Championship match:

Some good points. Yeah I def see what you mean in a lot of those. Moving kinda sideways or moving as I'm swinging a lot of times. Probably just a lack of footwork issue with never having received any proper coaching & starting to play seriously at 30.... I'm 38 now for the record. I never take...

Thanks NL. That means a lot coming from you. Yeah they're just highlights. I mean you will see my flaws when I post my 3-1 match vs Daniel. He's in another level to where I'm at. But it's my assessment that I'm capable of hitting the impressive looking shots but the consistency. Sometimes the...

Here are some highlights from club last night. People I'm playing varies. Some newer. Couple of them more experienced. USATT 1894 & 2071 The match vs the 2071 player (Daniel - the kid here) I lost 3-1 to last night. I'll post that in a day or so. Hope you all enjoy. Video should be 1080p so...

Nah I'm good. I don't need pics. They hit the gym as pro athletes. I get it.

Yeah I'm with OhWell when I saw the 1st post. I was thinking "is this guy really going to play classic defense and rarely attack if at all?" Think that's a mistake in today's game but it can be done. Really not a whole lot of thought needed for this one IMO. Just get some SP in a thin sponge. I...
