No doubt in my mind this is true. I made that comment in 2017 after I saw him play doubles in person at the WTTC in Germany. I hadn't counted the titles, it was just watching how he dominated points in doubles. It was just the eye test. His game is ideally suited for doubles.

96. You are not allowed to bring highly fragrant and particular foods -- e.g. surstromming, choudoufu, or durian fruit -- to the closed confines of a table tennis club.

Rule 95. You are not allowed to retreat to the barriers and "lob for show" on the last point of a lopsided match unless you are are a professional player. See also Rules 2, 7 and 8.

They are very slightly volatile and in contrast to speed glue it is probably not why they work. But to be honest and with no disrespect intended, given the questions you ask, I doubt it is something you need to be dealing with.

Sounds shady to me.

Many companies will attach rubber for you prior to shipping but it is still really useful to learn to do this yourself. It is pretty easy after the first time.

Rule 94. You may not pass gas in the vicinity of other players or close to the end of a game just prior to changing sides.

I think this us a good suggestion. It is quite a lot slower.

I teach at a medical school. My guess is that they are probably reasonably safe but we cant say for sure because the formulations are proprietary secrets. Compared to speed glue the effects are so minimal that it's not worth the effort with European or Japanese made rubbers that I use...

Rule 91. Stop beating yourself.

Dont buy blades you haven't tried. Instead try uout your clubmate's blades. Keeps you from making costly mistakes.

Not when you breathe it.

Danny Seemiller still uses a BH serve pretty effectively. And of course there is that very strange thing Dima does.

Rule 83 should suffice.

Rule 90. Flash photography in a table tennis venue is absolutely forbidden and warrants immediate ejection. You are required to inform friends and family of this since, since whilst it might seem to be common sense, it apparently is not. Actual players who violate this rule are to be shunned...

Bryan that is excellent and it augurs well for your future enlightenment. As you wrote it, though, the rule was incomplete. Rule 89. A player is not allowed to bounce the ball more than three times before serving. If a player consistently serves too long or always hits the same serve they...
