  1. Backspin flick against backspin ball?

    can you please post the link to that video with exact timestamp ? the definition of flick is explicitly different from push. If you do a push motion and call it flick it does not become a flick ;)
  2. Pongfinity Sensei

    The Pongfinity Sensei is a 7-ply wood and hence probably a little faster than the beginner 5 ply woods that beginners would play. I don't think you can go much wrong with buying it for him. He will have mad fun and the rubbers are good enough to play for beginners and intermediates. If he then...
  3. Backspin flick against backspin ball?

    i challenge you to show me a top spin push and a backspin flick. The pure definition of a push is to hit it from below and over the table. if you hit it from below and move the racket in the direction you would need to to create top spin (which would be moving the paddle to yourself) you would...
  4. What is going on with the umpire here?

    Didn't know Biden did have a side job.
  5. Pongfinity Sensei

    to be honest, i do not know a single person (being a table tennis beginner) in germany that would even remotely think about buying table tennis equipment from AliExpress. They would much rather go to a table tennis shop to get consulted or check some reviews on amazon. That was pretty much my...
  6. Pongfinity Sensei

    and how would a total beginner know which of the hundreds of 7ply woods are a decent ones? On top of that the G-1 is pretty hard for a beginner to play, so even if he had somebody like you to advise him he would end up with a pretty fast and unforgiving racket. I think part of what you pay is...
  7. Pongfinity Sensei

    I own one but stripped the rubbers from it. From the hardness of the rubbers and the color of the sponge it could very will be an aurus select clone.The rubbers were decent enough to play with it as a beginner. The blade is a 7ply one so you would assume that this racket is not exclusively for...
  8. New enticing upcoming blade

    Thank you for your opinion about the TMXi. It looks intriguing to me and i would like to know if you really think that the TMXi Pro (and non-pro if you have insights in that modell too) are better than the Xiom Ice Cream AZXi (which i currently use with 91g). I can hardly believe that it has...
  9. Had a forehand loop revelation

    It looks like you are trying to execute a slow drive with different angle to make it topspin, but I think it does not work that way. I am a beginner as well, but I made quite a good progress learning top spin, by not trying to hit the ball at all, but rather imagining an angled wall that is...
  10. Nittaku Acoustic Carbon / inner carbon

    So I got a regular violin, a inner carbon violin and two Acoustics. From memory the violin and Acoustic where very similar and I did not need to change much switching between them. I recently switched between the violin inner carbon and the regular acoustic and noticed that the ball throw angle...
  11. Backspin flick against backspin ball?

    A flick is usually a drive or topspin ball played with a short motion over the table only using the arm and wirst and not the whole body. How would that fit with creating backspin? What you describe is a backspin push. Gesendet von meinem SM-G998B mit Tapatalk
  12. What is the name of the classic shape of a blade?

    I thought Nittaku was from 1920 or why do you not count them as table tennis brand ?
  13. Hugo Calderano HAL is currently a good option?

    Great, let us know how it works out for you. Gesendet von meinem SM-G998B mit Tapatalk
  14. MZ Match Video, more opening up

    There is this arm cast style bandage that you can wear to learn top spin. If you wear that in practice matches you basically can't reach for the ball, since the upper arm is fixed at an 45° angle on your shoulder. That will force you to use the legs to get into position. Gesendet von meinem...
  15. Looking pure Wood blade for developing my skill , Korbel etc

    You can order any of these blades from tabletennis11 and request a light blade. They will hook you up with a light one. Just received a light (83g) Nittaku Acoustic from them, while my old Nittaku Acoustic that i already have weights 86g. The Yasaka Sweden Extra is a nice and very affordable...
  16. First custom bat advice

    There are a few very well known allround blades that you could start with. Generally i think your ideas do make sense already. I don't know about defensive rubbers so others might chime in if something like short pimples and the like would make sense there. Good alround blades that dont break...
  17. REVspin site؟

    you can check what other reviews the reviewers have submitted and you can even check what they are currently playing with. That can give you a good understanding if you really want to be that thorough.
  18. REVspin site؟

    i think people underestimate the validity of these reviews in comparison to forum reviews. Who says that the person giving a review/rating on revspin is less knowledgeable than the person writing in this forum and saying "rubber xyz is the spinniest, fastest, greatest ever". If there are more...
  19. I just ordered from tabletennis11.com. What a pain!

    You are pretty cocky spitting half-truths around even though you do not much about the topic yourself. At least that is what it seems to me. First off, most protocols being used 8 years ago are still supported by todays browsers. Even though most browsers today might support HTTP 2.0, they also...
  20. I just ordered from tabletennis11.com. What a pain!

    as the others already wrote: it is your card issuer, not tabletennis11 subjecting you to this security feature.On top of that i can only say good things about tabletennis11, i just called them and Sergei himself took the call and helped me with my questions.
