  1. Service Receive

    Yeah you're definitely right. The people I was losing so many points to on service both were very very good, 1 had more variants but over time I did adapt a little, just not enough to get a game. Also when the game did open up I didn't win enough of the points to earn a victory. Although I did...
  2. Service Receive

    Yesterday I played with someone new and he agreed after some warm up to play games with 1 person serving the entire game. His serves were decent but I found after re reading all the tips and that TTedge app I was quickly able to adapt. I did find myself relying more on the flight of the ball, I...
  3. Service Receive

    This is a very interesting read. If you have a link to that video I would love to watch. It is a very interesting way to judge it actually, if i think about myself I do like to touch a short serve short but with half long and long serves I always prefer to open the game up. So based on that...
  4. Did Timo Boll deserve star player award?

    I mean tbh Timo Boll has always been and always will be a great Idol in table tennis, he is a great example of a good sportsmen and someone you can easily look up to always setting a good example. Its not always about who is the best or who is number 1 or even who gives most entertainment with...
  5. TG3 Skyline NEO

    5 out of 5 rating for Skyline 3 TG NEO I DO NOT boost this rubber and have been playing with Skyline TG3NEO Domestic 39deg version for about 4months still playing like brand new after cleaning. I am an all-rounded player who prefers to play 1-3ft from table. It is important to note that this...
  6. Service Receive

    Ultimately I was/am asking what YOU personally focus on so it doesn't matter too much what lvl of player you are. I get everyone's points and I thank each and everyone of you for the tips and replies. I am not new to TT but I have been out the game for so long and haven't put any time or...
  7. Skyline 3 TG NEO

    Review by 'Ndragon' on item 'Skyline 3 TG NEO'

    I DO NOT boost this rubber and have been playing with Skyline TG3NEO Domestic 39deg version for about 4months still playing like brand new after cleaning. I am an all-rounded player who prefers to play 1-3ft from table. It is important to note that this rubber feels so so similar to H3NEO with...
  8. Service Receive

    Oh wow that TTedge app seems really good. Is it worth paying for the entire thing? I really found myself watching the flight of the ball and being correct most of the time. But if I watched the contact I failed a lot lol
  9. Service Receive

    A lot of interesting pointers. The part about always expecting the serve long I will also keep in mind. I will re read through this thread before I go to my session tomorrow :)

    oooooh I like this! I will definitely bare this in mind
  11. 1,9 2.1 Rubber thickness

    I have a question on the difference between 2.1 and 1.9. Speaking purely for FH as an example, you have a good technique down. Opening Loop, Close to table loop, mid distance loop, loop to loop. How would the MM of sponge change the outcome of the exact same shot of each of the above?
  12. Tomokazu Harimoto Tribute!

    What a fantastic player to watch, you can see how passionate he is he will only get better and better. Along with Truls I cannot wait to see their futures in TT.
  13. Joola Rossi Emotion or Andro Treiber K

    Glad to see you enjoy the Emotion. I had an opportunity to play that blade a few times and it is really really good. If I didn't try someone's Clipper and fall in love then the Emotion would have been one of 3 blades I would have been choosing from to upgrade from my Stiga ALL classic. A great...
  14. Best angle to record training?

    Good luck with the training :) I am also planning to do a lot of multiball (just ordered 102 plastic balls) and film my training to try and get quick and noticeable results. Was also wondering this same thing. The one thing I can't decide on (with only 1 camera) is whether or not to film from...
  15. Service Receive

    Thanks for the replies. I'll check out that app. I think I just need to get used to playing games with others again and naturally my brain will start seeing it quicker. Although I am thinking instead of trying to do it all at in one go, i'll focus more on 2 parts at a time.
  16. Service Receive

    I would like to ask what you focus on when receiving serve, or how you read it. Do you watch the bat to ball contact? What if you can't see it properly or only just about last second? Do you watch the flight of the ball? or the spin? Or all of the above. I have got back into TT few months now...
  17. What backhand rubber to choose???

    I have tried this short pimple Friendship 802-40 soft rubber in both 1.5 and 2.0. It can play all the attacking shots and serve with spin, not as spinny of course as a regular H3 type rubber. But it also allows you to loop drive through certain backspin balls that a regular rubber cannot. This...
  18. Multi ball with Celluloid balls bad idea?

    Good shout on those DHS balls. Seen them on TT11 now. Might be worth doing that. Will look more into it and see if a friend would want to share
  19. What backhand rubber to choose???

    You might like some offensive short pimples.....just saying You can get some for very cheap too so if you don't like then no big deal
  20. Any suggestion for a >$50 budget blade ?

    Stiga ALL classic or OFF classic are solid choices. Pair them up with Sriver, Mark V or Mendo both sides and done. The Donic blade mentioned Appelgren Allplay also solid. Joola wing Medium (or any allround one from joola).
