  1. Boycott effects: ML, XX and FZD get suspended?

    Thx. I hope we see them soon.
  2. Watching pros makes you better, and we should watch women players

    Forget whether it is bang bang or close in or spinny. Watch how Zhang Yining moves her feet and watch her balance. Watch how, as a result, she can immediately go in the offensive with her forehand given even the slightest opportunity. This is the thing. And it is gender neutral and nobody...
  3. Watching pros makes you better, and we should watch women players

    This thread is my homage to Zhang Yining, one of my favorite players of all time (and I was reminded of it by a thread at MyTT where people are discussing who they thing the GOAT is among women players). In a discussion like that it is hard to argue against Deng Yaping but my favorite is Zhang...
  4. Shoulder/neck pain

    Might have been a bad night trying to sleep in an awkward position because you were sick.
  5. Chinese National Games 2017

    So the ZJK fangirls would like to see the end of the careers of Ma Long and FZD? Wow. I hope the GAS ignores them.
  6. The Psychology of an Internet Troll

    Simple. Get your trolling kicks by only trolling sites that are populated by generally evil people.
  7. Do counter and drive hits have spin?

    Do counter and drive hits have spin? Only if you want them to land on the table. (In the video the OP posted from TT Edge just look at the racket angle at ball contact and the direction the blade is moving relative to the ball. It may not produce a lot of spin but some and it pulls the ball...
  8. The Psychology of an Internet Troll

    Some of our classic tt forum trolls, I have often thanked my lucky stars that they are not co-workers. Can you even imagine having to deal with AH daily? When he came back his style was so characteristic it took less than a week to sniff him out. One of our most famous ones I actually met...
  9. Zhang Jike - News, Pics, Videos & more

    Ok. I guess anyone can have a bad day.
  10. A For Sale-For Trade scammer has been hitting sites all over Europe.

    By the way, Carl and Giangt, the scammer that caused me to start this thread is a member here at TTD since May of 2017, going by the name of Petra, and he is trying to sell blades here now. I very much warn people to not deal with him...
  11. Donic Ovtcharov True Carbon

    I am back with my Viscaria because my ST handle experiment ended awhile back, not because there is anything wrong with the True Carbon. It is pretty much like Butterfly ALC blades (especially the ZJK-ALC actually). Plenty of Chinese players use, for example, a Butterfly Viscaria, with very...
  12. Vladimir Samsonov changed forehand rubber. Does anyone know what it is?

    It has to be on the ITTTF LARC (list of approved coverings).
  13. Zhang Jike - News, Pics, Videos & more

    Yep. I prefer to remember him as a player at his best and ignore the rest.
  14. A For Sale-For Trade scammer has been hitting sites all over Europe.

    Iamme says I always do wrong thing. Not always. I don't claim to be perfect but I have sniffed out more than one of his new identities.
  15. A For Sale-For Trade scammer has been hitting sites all over Europe.

    Shuki, you were younger then, at an age where a year here and a year there makes a big difference. At that age I did dumb stuff too. Different kinds of dumb stuff, actually several different kinds of dumb stuff. The thing about kids is they often grow out of these things. I look back on any...
  16. A For Sale-For Trade scammer has been hitting sites all over Europe.

    I actually did go back and remove the street address, you might notice.
  17. August World Rankings 2017

    Is that the real DOB for FZD or was he actually two years older? He already had legs like a T Rex by then. One of the things that amazes me about Harimoto is that he still looks like a little kid. It is going to be really interesting to see how his game changes as he gets bigger and stronger...
  18. August World Rankings 2017

    Lilly Zhang 73 Mo Zhang 56. Kanak Jha 45 in Under 21 So much for North America.
  19. Zhang Jike - News, Pics, Videos & more

    Thanks for the correction Rain. Still, maybe it was not a great plan for them to post this video. I always admired ZJK's play. An accumulation of injuries hurt his level. All the same, the not very pleasant smell of entitlement is strong with him (a lot of Americans are getting sensitive to...
