  1. Please help me fix my glueing mistakes

    I don't think glue makes paddle faster. I would put just enough glue so that it firmly sticks, but not extra glue. Most people I see put too much glue for my liking, and it starts to impact the feeling of the rubber. So, I don't know specifically what you're doing wrong. But why don't you try...
  2. Would you like to see ELO ratings applied to pro players?

    This is pretty cool! Except they have Sun Yinsha with a higher rating than Harimoto. Im pretty sure she stands no chance.

    I see you do like a reverse pendulum motion after the regular pendulum motion. Is that just a fake out? Or do you also put reverse spin? Yeah for sure I like to play loopers. Blocking is kinda my specialty. Bh block and fh loop are my 2 main weapons, like a jab and a straight right punch.
  4. Need Recommendation and suggestion for someone new to sport!

    Sure, of course. Jupiter 3 is excellent fh rubber. and Tornado is a pretty reasonable bh or fh rubber.
  5. Timo Boll ALC vs Ovtcharov Innerforce ALC?

    I think TB ALC will have more speed and stiffness while Innerforce will have more control, more catch on the ball. But, Ovtcharov ALC tends to be a slightly harder version of innerforce, so the difference may not be THAT big. I think most rubbers will work fine on either blade.

    Theyve been saying that about Miwa since she was like 9, that she has a better sense. I think now its more evident. HT just plays very hard, he relies on playing being able to outlast his opponent and outrally his opponent. Miwa is a bit more selective, choosing when to take chances and when...

    Also, another interesting thing is that Harimoto is a big reason that I got into table tennis. When Harimoto first broke onto the scene, I was not playing TT at all, and hadn't played for decades. I was exclusively playing badminton 5 times a week. But he got me excited by the sport. I was...
  8. Rxton 5 Pro

    Sure, but thats not what I mean. Boosted H3 doesnt have the "tensory" hard to control feeling im trying to describe with rxton 3 pro. But lets see. I just moved it to a less tranpoline blade, maybe it will feel better.

    Yeah your fh got a lot better. Snappy and crisp with good power. I would love to play you, i love blocking that type of fh shot. Its just satisfying to me.

    Like right here Post in thread 'WTT Contender Doha 2024' https://www.tabletennisdaily.com/forum/topics/wtt-contender-doha-2024.32718/post-440128 I never "wrote him off". I said, his past few years have not been amazing, but he can still get better and still be #1. As you said, hes still 20...
  11. Rxton 5 Pro

    Also I forgot to mention, I actually twirled my racket and tried the Rxton 3 Pro as a bh rubber as well, with the high catapult and all, I think it might actually be a better bh rubber than FH rubber. Makes me want to get a Rxton 3 regular and boost it for backhand.

    So these videos are 3 months apart? It seems like you improved a lot in 3 months.

    Your serve looks pretty good, what spin are you putting on that? Also, I notice one very big error in your game. You are holding the racket completely wrong, you are holding it like a tennis racket. It also took me a while to figure out (actually I should make a list of things that took me a...

    Wow, you're up to 1800 already? That's a huge improvement. What were you like a 1 year? I think I remember you saying a much lower rating back then.

    Good! We are in agreement. I am free to have my opinion on Harimoto's performance. You are free to have your opinion of his performance. And you are free to have derision of my opinion. I have complete indifference towards your opinion. The only thing is, I ask that you DO NOT mis-represent my...
  16. Rxton 5 Pro

    I tested the Boosted rxton 3 pro with baby oil on the sanwei 75 inner. I still feel its too fast and too tensory. It really just feels like using Mxp or something. Theres not enough catchiness for my liking. Some shots are fast and flashy, but its also easy to overshoot the table. I might try...

    Ok. Youre one of those guys who complain about paying taxes and having to grow old too, right? Youre gonna have to live with fans who disagree with your view. My view is not gonna change unless the facts change.
