In France we have open tournaments basically everywhere all summer. For official tournaments you would need a license from the federation.

Their balance is very similar. So the step shouldn’t be too hard to handle. With the carbon however you need to work harder, passive play is definitely easier with the Sweden extra.

It’s also about quantity, since wtt I understood that the number of “big” tournaments has increased. This would lead to 2 things. 1. Being dominant in more events requires more players that are dominant. 2. A percentage of a larger number of tournaments is a larger number. So in absolute we...

I would try to figure out why the “old” training methods work less well on the younger generation. And maybe get a mental support team for Wang. On the other hand, a quick glance at the world rankings both men’s and women’s are completely dominated by China. They deliver all 5 Olympic...

I think this is going to move the ittf to change the service rules. One might hope that a change would simplify detection of faulty services.

I feel the list of well named rubbers would be shorter 😅

He should be happy, now he can focus on the WTT champions in Montpellier

How do you serve from your palm with two rackets? Or more generally, just how do you serve legally?

Good advice Tony. If you have access to a coach this person would be best suited to judge. If not, you might indeed consider developing your style based on being ambidextrous.

Then explain to us in detail where’s the fun in losing 80% of the points because your opponent’s serves are so good that you can’t receive them? There’s no game left?

I just think your technique doesn’t match the sensitivity of your rubbers. Also I feel it’s harder to play against the no spin balls with light equipment.

I don’t see how you can ever get to number 1 with easy wins… even with illegal serves they’re just half the points and he is far from the only one who’s serves are off. Wang is clearly going through some emotional trauma and is not supported the right way. It is on the other hand a bit...

Also, Fan and Liang are not the skinniest players on the circuit. And they’re both top 5 of the world

If you do push, push deep onto the table to give you time to drop off the table and limit the angle to deal with the smash that's incoming. [this is not a pro solution]

They’re French after all food is good here

They do a lot of fitness already. A larger swing would make for a more time consuming technique. His major advantage over competition is the ruthless speed of his game combined with good serves. I think what he really needs is a plan B at the same level for when that doesn’t work for some...

I agree, overpriced would depend heavily on your point of view. I don't think for example that a salesperson at butterfly thinks their products are overpriced since they are market leader in large parts of the world. They also seem to be involved in quite some R&D on material of which we all...

And then there’s green tables! I think most important is the combination of colour, lighting, reflectiveness/matte, and speed of the table

Hey man love what you’re doing, I’m exactly in your target group. I find you chose it wisely from a financial point of view. (30 to 40 years people with jobs in general and still young enough to really make progress) 1.) Please explain in words, what is your biggest frustration? Being...

Develop your basic techniques, loops and drives primarily, maybe blocks if these fast balls are loaded with topspin. Fast balls should not be a problem if you’re young, it’s really just training.
