    I for one get where Suga is coming from. And sometimes these unpleasant threads are necessary.
  3. World Team Cup 2018

    I would say it is ALWAYS the place to call out stuff like that when it comes up! Especially in the world we live in now.

  6. What's your opinion on important skills for playing Table Tennis?

    Good balance. Ability to move in a relaxed way. High power to weight ratio in legs. Flexibility in upper body. Core strength. Good vision, interestingly enough even peripheral vision. You can definitely improve your game by improving your body. BUT it is far more important to spend a...

  10. Do you think deaf people control their nerves better in table tennis?

    What you wrote is such a grotesque mis-characterization of what I meant that I can only conclude that you are here for the sole purpose of trolling. I think every person who visits this thread can sense that. In addition: Gymnastics is a bit of a strange sport in that athletes are sent away...
  17. How to make the best of what I have available?

    Yes, you need to find at least one adult training partner at or near your level equally motivated to improve. With that much becomes possible. Without that it is harder.
