  1. TT Myth Busters

    "Control" is often misunderstood. Saying a rubber has a good control its a matter of perspective, so you didnt invent anything new about saying "people have control not the rubbers". Well no sh** man ! Some players will prefer rubber A because they can play more accurate shots with it and others...
  2. Technique reverting to pre-lesson standard. Why?

    Watch this video and you will have your answer :) 1) Identify what aspect of your game is blocking you from executing the correct stroke in matches. Is it your mental state?Are you anxious?Is it the different style of rallying?Serving receiving? Footwork? Are your muscles too tense? 2)Train...
  3. TT Myth Busters

    Pnachtwey Both players are preferring 2.2 mm for topspin drives and 2mm for pushes/blocks (because it had more "control" meaning that the rubbers is significantly slower than the 2.2mm cause you had to add an extra motion to give the ball "pace" and place it where you want it" Now check how...
  4. TT Myth Busters

    and one last thing pathfinders videos experiments are not sufficient enough to prove what you are saying which is actually proved by a few counterhits and blocks. Science is used sometimes to prove what we already feel see and understand. But in the case of TT in part two the video maker...
  5. TT Myth Busters

    Oh and talking about faster or slower rubbers. If a thick rubber is fully compressed then it will restore more energy to the ball than a thinner one fully compressed also. Thats hook's law , I dont care about pathfinders findings cause you are actually defying simple laws here. The...
  6. TT Myth Busters

    of course not. i wasnt even talking about free fall. spin on a ball can be described by the magnus effect I was talking on playing TT in a room with absolutely no air and make flat hits on the ball either with pips or no pips and see what happens. I guess we will never know for sure
  7. TT Myth Busters

    Dude I dont have to prove anything to anyone. I tried many rubbers of the same brand and model and all thicker rubbers are faster. That's enough evidence for me. You are making conclusions about TT physics without taking all the factors into consideration...so good luck with that :)
  8. TT Myth Busters

    Every ball even "dead" balls produced by pimples have some light spin on it. Only if we had "no air" conditions we could produce a 100% no spin ball
  9. TT Myth Busters

    thicker rubbers up to a certain point are definitely faster than thinner ones end of story. Of course I am talking about keeping all the other factors the same. Same stroke, same speed and spin of incoming ball and we suppose that the energy of the incoming ball is enough to compress both...
  10. What are the best table tennis shoes ?

    http://www.amazon.com/ASICS-Mens-Gel-Blade-Squash-Shoe/dp/B00AJNBB7Y Im using this currently after using stiga and butterfly shoes. Much more comfortable and this "gel" technology makes it very easy for the shoe to adjust when you use constant footwork with fast pace. Its the first shoe Ive...
  11. Cant hit hard enough! Do I need new blade?

    Even the pros dont go all out on every shot, so just forget about that if you want to develop your table tennis skills. Watch a full match of top players, not the highlights and u will get my point. Body and wrist acceleration at moment of contact require totally relaxed muscles. You dont...
  12. Ma Long for Grand Slam Champion?

    Its really tough to tell, in Rio FZD will be even more mature, Fang Bo is ready to kill them all and of course ML an ZJK are still the best in terms of experience in my eyes. I believe that LGL will not include FZD for Rio he is too young and will have even more opportunities in the future, even...
  13. World Table Tennis Championships 2015

    Actually I believe she played really well and topped her game when needed , its just that she had to encounter very difficult opponents. Wu yang mu zi liu shiwen and of course li xiaoxia have all improved much more than ding ning since 2011 rotterdam. Maybe the chinese trainers focused a bit...
  14. World Table Tennis Championships 2015

    lol dude there isnt any conspiracy theory I also believed that dind ning was really injured. U could see that ankle twisting at 90 degrees
  15. World Table Tennis Championships 2015

    I dont know if LSW was affected but she made tons of mistakes through the game. At 1-0 10-8 and she totally rushed the two next points and ding ning leveled 10-10 and went forward to win the game and the score was now 1-1. In the next two sets LSW played smarter/faster exposing ding ning's...
  16. What type of exercise should i be doing?

    Strength exercises with weights will only make you slower if you bulk up too much muscle (like a bodybuilder or a fitness model) and you neglect flexibility exercises. There are videos of waldner and maze doing 10 or even more repetitions of squats with 100 kilograms over their shoulders...
  17. Table tennis popularity decreasing over years..

    Guys you are comparing different sports and making conclusions, there is no point in such arguements. Every sport is extremely difficult in pro level, especially world class. TT is definitely a very complex sport and if you want to compare it to other sports then you must consider some factors...
  18. World Table Tennis Championships 2015

    zjk will face liang jingkun in the 3rd round if they both qualify, which i suppose they will do. ZJK will also have to face kim hyok bong from N.Korea who is a very good player
  19. TableTennisDaily hits 100,000 fans on Facebook!

    congrats dan !! really nice to see TTD growing bigger and bigger
  20. What type of exercise should i be doing?

    Squats and lunges are perfect for TT. Type "footwork coordination " or "explosive footwork exercises" on google and you will get tons of info with various workouts. If you are familiar playing with open legs using sidesteps by moving on the balls of your feet without getting off balance, then u...
