http://www.presports.com/miscellaneous/538-andro-rubber-protective-film-adhesive.html something like this? Tacky sheets are useless on european rubbers, basically they are useless for every rubber. Its just a marketing trick for the companies to make more money. If you want your rubbers to be...

Well thicker sponge definitely gives more spin (when it is compressed to its maximum of course) and less control than a thinner one. I dont know about the pros but I saw a documentary about wang hao zhang jike ma lin etc and LGL said that before beijing olympics wang hao was in perfect form...

Thats an interesting point of view, since you also happen to be a physics fan (thats obvious hehe) . About the 1mm 2mm rubbers I dont think it would be half the speed because we dont know if the whole impact and spring phenomenon acts in a linear behaviour. And there is also the wood layer...

Yeap the term force was wrong. Lets "replace" it with "work" If a thicker rubber (larger spring) needs 10 Joules (just saying) to be fully compressed then the thinner rubber (smaller spring) will be compressed also, its just the law of Hooke actually. The difference is that the energy released...

For the same amount of effort that compresses a sponge the thicker sponge is faster/spinnier. It is like a spring, if you compress a larger spring with the same modulus of elasticity and then compress with the same amount of force a smaller spring, the larger spring will release more energy A...

Once you peel them off they will automatically shrink most likely, especially if they are tensor rubbers or if you stretched them too much after you glued them Measure the old and new blade dimensions and compare them Put 6-8 drops of some booster and they will expand enough to fit the new...

i dont see any player or a blade

I think its one of the most important threads in TTD

It doesnt have to do with angles. Harder sponges are usually more dense sponges (when comparing the same rubber with the same topsheet of course. for example T05 FX with T05)! I dont know exactly how the degrees are measured but here is a clue regarding number/degrees...

Of course its possible as long as you dont bulk up too much

Well ITTF surely lacks in developing the sport. Chasing a TT career as a western kid is somehow more difficult than being a chinese. European kids will try other sports more popular etc etc. What really disappoints me is that coaches in Europe are not doing a good job. Isnt it weird that young...

If you want to focus on explosiveness just lift the weights as fast as possible but with proper technique. Squats and lunges are perfect for TT you can search various legs and torso exercises on youtube Now for the fibers ...slow twitch fibers are activated when the fast ones are completely...

Your weight/height are totally fine. Its actually pretty simple, if u gain pure muscle mass through proper training and diet you will be definetely faster. Adding 2 kgrs of muscle mass and 5 kilos of fat then obviously you are doing it wrong. To play proper TT you need both strong/explosive...

Well for example of players like zhang jike and ma long or dima and boll Im afraid I will have to disagree (on the part that "they would do anything"). They know each other so well that serving/receiving (at the beginning of the match) does not play an important role to the final outcome. I mean...

That's not important , even if they did it doesnt necessarily make their decision more logic or safe. Players keep the serve just for psychological reasons only, you have the chance for an early lead of 2-0

I love scientific analysis and I really enjoyed this article but the detail on giving or keeping the serve does not worth the study. Why? Well we are not sure that the set will go on 9-9. Besides its better to study the opponent thoroughly than to rely on mathematics. The probability of a match...

Of course there was a limit in Olympics and wttc. Winning the wttc is more difficult than the olympics though...from the 32 round and after 90% of the players were top50 of world ranking. Winning 3 wttc like WLQ did is an immense achievement. On the other hand Ma lin won 5 world cups and wang...

Red or black it doesnt matter. Using some edgetape wil do the job like der ecthe said. The topsheet is the same, they just change the color using different dyes

So what is your actual question here? Every material vibrates, some more others less. Flexibility is a different characteristic, off course a flexible blade will vibrate more under the same force applied per same amount of time (comparing to a hard blade). Vibrating blades or to be more...

I agree if you are talking only about the family guy video and not about the thread starter and me. When it comes to the video its mostly a matter of sense of humor (or perspective of "funny", what is funny to me may be insulting to you and that situation is totally normal and ok, we are all...
