  1. Stiga Calibra Tour Rubber Review

    The video is nicely produced but it would be nice to have heard any drawbacks to the rubbers, if any (there is almost always some trade-off). Stiga, like other manufacturers, give out samples of rubbers to try and hope to get such glowing reviews made of their upcoming products. I don't think...
  2. The power of the 'flick'

    I would call it a delayed flick!
  3. Pips in V/S pips out

    Nice post Lorre! Wow, its been ages since I posted here, amazed I recall my details LOL. There certainly is some mis-information floating around out there about pip players. One of the funniest things I find is this notion that pips just automatically reverse spin for you. Ba-bowng! Not quite...
  4. Odd question on movement!

    I'm with JKC. Although I think JKC moves more than I do lol. Bouncing around and re-positioning (making small adjustments) with the feet is always good if you can work it into your natural game and body movement. Being stable, well rhythmed, and fluid in your strokes tends to produce the best...
  5. Model, Soo Yeon Lee is a Table Tennis player!

    Oooh La La! What red blooded guy could play TT with her at the other end? LOL
  6. To be a world class player......

    Commitment, discipline, great coaches, natural talent, dedicated training and sparring partners, and enough money coming from somewhere to sustain it all. Oh and don't forget the secret boosters lol, can't be a world champ without them LOL
  7. if you are winning 10-0....

    Really does depend on who it is to. A genuinely weaker opponent, give em a point in a subtle way. If its to someone you know can beat you but you have simply out played them this game, or someone obnoxious, scrap em 11-0!!
  8. Is table tennis the hardest sport in the world?

    Its not the hardest, cos hard is what you are not used to. But it is one of the best for many reasons...speed, self-amazement, fun, social, the list goes on.....
  9. A way to help TTD grow!

    Dan I joined here mainly due to a friend on facebook "liking" the site and so I took a look. Didn't join at first, just watched the odd vid. Then there was something it wouldn't let me see (a vid I think) unless I joined, so here I am lol. I think net adverts are a more likely place to get...
  10. Introduce yourself to the forum! :)

    Hi, I'm Reb. Some users will know me from the Aussie forums (and I am an Aussie). Played TT for around 32 years with time off for good behaviour. I play twice a week in A grade comps plus usually a couple more times training. I play with LP (Pogo) on Bty Gergely with Andro Roxon on FH. I came...
  11. If you could improve one thing in your TT what would it be?

    I find that TT is so much about mental ability and focus. Its your brain that controls what you do with your racket, your arms, your feet etc. If your brain is not 100% focussed on doing the right things and withstanding the pressure of the game, then it can so easily slip away from you. Given...
