No. The one on the left is the old, awful one.

Actually, the change of ball has played into Boll's hands. He pre-adapted in advance by planning his injuries and surgeries correctly. Now he's forced to stand much closer to the table and take the ball early due to lack of mobility. Amazing vision from the classy German. I can see a lot of...

Wow - I got some chilli heatwave doritos from tesco this week. Coincidence, or national grade snack of champions? You decide.

Can you imagine it? Bad seedings for staying up late, eating too many dúmplings, having a girlfriend. There would be so many new conspiracy theories to obsess about. edit - amusingly, the forum wouldn't let me type "dúmplings" because it doesn't like the word "dúmp". But I took a huge dúmp...

The CNT should be in charge of the seeding for future events. I'd like to see a website build like an interactive cardboard wall.

Should be a good one. Boll's match against Gao was pretty dire viewing.

First pic of jun's arm is from February when he pulled out of the Qatar open. Other one was a few days ago, not sure what he was in for. Hopefully well enough for the wttc.

I'm calling it now - it's Roundergy.

This is the problem for Butterfly in the long-term. Tenergy has had so much success it's burrowed into the brains of many players and they won't consider anything else. So how do they position new models? If they go super-premium they would be harming the existing cash cow. If they go...

So....congratulations if you live in Japan?

I used R7Soft on the Boll ZLF years ago and I remember it worked really well. Maybe a bit bouncy, but this was back in the celluloid days so it could be a better fit for the slower plastic balls these days. But as others have said - it might feel wrong to someone else. R7Soft has quite a lot...

It's amazing really that these details aren't more tightly controlled, but perhaps that's more of a statement of the importance (or lack thereof) of the ATTC for the CNT. This is the team that used the Olympic flooring for their Olympic trials, for example. In a world of marginal gains, this...

My experience with ABS-type balls is similar to what you describe - the drop in spin, and the difficulty in applying spin vs the reward, results in the most efficient route becoming to concentrate on another approach. I feel that it's one that reduces the focus on over spinning the opponent...

Ha ha, no need for apologies. It's been a super exciting couple of days, and the ittf's website has been crapping out. Makes it hard to see the tournament progress.

http://www.ittf.com/tournament/2773/2017/ittf-asian-championships/ Some links aren't working, the PDF ones do and you can see the results up to and including the 1/4 stage now. So tomorrow we get Niwa v Jeong and FZD v ZJK.

Also, these are the 1/4 finals.

No. I'm watching it on 5+ now.

Amazing stuff.
