The center ply of viscaria is balsa, not kiri as in TB ALC

I think in the mens event Zhang Jike will win I think in the womens event Liu Shiwen will win

Variation of all of the above posts ! Keep the opponent guessing, sometimes even changing your body placement can confuse your opponent. Serving from the center or from a lefty's side creating different angles

I admire LSW also, in 2013 only li xiaoxia could beat her in terms of explosiveness. I would dare to say tha LSW is on a bigger level than ding ning when she is in the mood, but we must wait and see what happens in the wttc 2015. No chopper has ever won 1st place in olympics or wttc in singles...

placement, variation & effectiveness (all kinds of bh strokes) : zhang jike and wang hao by far. People say zjk most of the times because he beat wang hao and he has a more explossive BH overall but WH is the best in variation by far from everyone. talent & stroke beauty : ovtcharov and...

Hello there people! I am a civil engineer, seems like 1/2 users in TTD have studied engineering sciences in general lol

actually he forced him to run as a form of punishment if ZJK didnt meet his requirements in training

His BH topsping against backspin was definitely not at a pro level, compared to Appelgren,Karlsson, or Persson. He had a fantastic feel for the backhand punch which was a good technique to use with 38mm ball cause you could flat/smash/kill a ball easily if you were gifted with feeling as waldner...

Chinese tacky rubbers have a sticky surface topsheet so they produce tons of spin (the ball stays on the rubber longer) but are significantly slower than european tensor rubbers. The chinese use it because you have plenty of options in the short game as well as serve and receive. Now since the...

Did you know that Waldner actually developed and practiced a lot his "feeling" of the ball and it was not purely a "god given talent". He used to experiment in training and try different shots all the time. If you watch older videos of him before 1987 you could see that his feeling was nothing...

I think this happens because OSP uses different gluing techniques than the big companies, which may cost more but the final result is a blade with much better quality in overall behavior. How exactly do you fix small dents in the perimeter of your blade Carl?

its over the net

I play with Virtuoso OFF- for the past 2.5 years. This blade has the best feeling Ive ever experienced in a blade. Here is my review on TTM if you like to give it a look http://www.tabletennismaster.com/profiles/blogs/osp-virtuoso-off-blade-an-allwood-miracle Note that this blade has maximum...

I didnt rely only on the recent world cup, but after watching full games of ma long against wang hao and zhang jike, especially in world competitions or chinese trials. The short game concept comes from the fact that, if u watch carefully ML makes many bad choices on placement of the short balls...

To be more accurate than upsidedowncarl, ML's short game compared to europe players is more than enough and maybe perfect. Compared to WH and ZJK his short game is worse enough to lose him points. His BH banana flick is also not as good as WH or ZJK but again this is not the reason that he loses...

When did he said that? Is that interview on a video with subs, can you provide a link please? I think they are both players who can adapt their tactics, not only ML so it sounds a little weird to me. The 2013 wttc trials where LGL is commenting WH vs ZJK he is saying that ZJK WH and ML are on...

jiang WAS a top player. WAS! The 80's style of short push block and short pips attack close to the table was too predictable after the 89 WTTTC loss. He wouldnt stand a chance against all round players like LGL or ma lin. The 90's era of chinese, implemented the BH loop in their game and a more...

If I had a time machine and managed to organize a tournament with all the best chinese players at their prime the ranking would be something like below. The games would be round robin (everyone plays everyone) without any knock outs 1.Zhang Jike 2. Wang Hao 3. Kong Linghui 4. Wang Liqin 5. Ma...

If this sheet has any adhesive on it, it may attract dust particles from your rubber that cannot be removed easily actually causing more damage instead of protecting :P (I have used tacky sheets and they actually harm your rubber rather than protect it) If it is just a normal sheet that can be...
