  1. The Late-Developers of Table Tennis (Do they exist?)

    No one can answer his question, success is not a matter of hard work only. Success = Natural talent in something + Quality Hard Work + Correct Decision making with Timing + Personality + Luck (you need luck to have all of the previous) Especially the luck factor is something which is out of...
  2. Blue sponge

    nobody can answer this question. it depends on your loop but I can give you just one single guideline about skyline and hurricane. H3 has a harder topsheet so you need a more open paddle comparing to the skyline which has a softer topsheet. If you execute the exact same stroke with the exact...
  3. Your friends say table tennis isn't a sport?

    Well first of all most people dont even know the definition of the word sport. 95 % of the TV sport fans watch basketball football soccer (whatever you wanna call it) american football baseball and voleyball. So everyone has a different opinion and most people tend to name an activity as being...
  4. Giangt going TT frenzy :)

    hahahahah at first I was like : What the hell happened? Is he giving me a tribute?
  5. TTD Comp - Win DHS Gold Arc 3 Rubbers

    I think it is slot number 1
  6. I feel cheated on....

    from my experience with many tacky rubbers, I suppose you were just unlucky and purchased a "bad" product. All 729 rubbers i have bought lasted for about 2 months maximum with 3 trainings per week. In general there arent more than 10 rubbers with lower price than 10 $ which can last for a...
  7. Blade sensitivity to spin

    Soft blades provide better information about what happens when you hit the ball. If a player with a hard blade can counterloop with ease, that means his technique is good, its not a matter of a blade or rubbers. If you know how to counterloop you can do it with a 30$ paddle from eacheng.net So...
  8. Quentin Robinot - Master Of Epic Shots!

    the song is from the rocky soundtrack (its a remix the original doesnt have these slick beats), dont know which movie! i have the soundtracks from all the movies and i cant find it. probably its a song that has been played in the movies only
  9. China Open 2013 Attendace

    Interesting point! Well the chinese fans of TT are decreasing, soccer and basketball gain more and more ground in China. Another factor may be that (just speculating) in the city of Changchun the people are not so interested in TT. In the harmony china open held mostly at Suzhou the seats are...
  10. How to perform Kick Serve?

    The best way to counteract this serve is to practice some kicker serves yourself. The contact point which is on the upper half of the ball produces topsidespin. Lets assume for example 80 % of the rotational energy is topspin and 20 % sidespin. Now when the ball bounces on the 1st half of the...
  11. Ask Richard Prause a question on TTD

    Many people involved in Table Tennis believe that the chinese are now unbeatable. The same belief was proven utterly false by the swedish team back in the 85-95 decade. I believe that Japan, Germany, France and Korea have good possibilities on beating them but they are afraid of them too much...
  12. New Ball for 2014 Confirmed (ITTF Study)

    there are different patents antagonizing each other and the best "patent" will earn the rights from the ITTF?
  13. Waldner or Ma Long?

    definetely. ma long cannot compose himself in big moments, waldner could and zhang can :P
  14. The Never Ending Tragedy - Ma Long vs Hao

    lol I dont think he relies only on his TT career to finance his whole life. As far as I know elder people in china dont get pension so they rely on their kids and he has to take care of his family also. Ma Long earns even more money from sponsors , after he retires from the chinese national team...

  16. European Rating to USA Rating

    its simple : you cant compare different things so you cant know the true accurate answer. If china and usa use the exact same rating system and we compare two players the result will not be accurate. We cannot neither to an approximate "estimation" Lets say we have the pro chinese player who...
  17. The Never Ending Tragedy - Ma Long vs Hao

    once again let me remind you that it wasnt bad luck. LGL had no option but to put ZJK and WH in the olympics. Its really crazy how people are making excuses because they love ma long so much.
  18. The Never Ending Tragedy - Ma Long vs Hao

    very solid analysis. bravo carl ! I think yan an has done the same thing to ML in their encounter @ Qatar open. Yan blocked many FH topspins of ma long getting him out of position
