‘During his prime (1996–1999) Liu played with TSP Spinpips on his forehand and Mark V on his backhand, yet still on the Stiga Clipper blade. The Spinpip rubbers was banned in the late 2000 and their counterpart Spinpip Md the year after. Both times because of the aspect ratio (ratio of pips...

Maybe the ITTF should let players have two rackets or more, like in badminton. Players will have a spare racket to deal with pimples or OX, or change their strategy for the next game. The dynamic of the sport will be very fascinating, IMHO.

She beat a 19 y.o. Chen Yi of China. Even though she's 60 years old, I'm sure she'll beat most of us here. She's remarkable.

2.0 is OK. In fact, all BTY max. rubbers are 2.1 (1.9–2.2). If a player already has some techniques, I think 1.9–2.2 is a practical option.

Again, I agree with you, but mentioning or giving credit to the source doesn't take as much effort as making those videos. Not doing it is a huge mistake, people will look down on him. ps. ERT, we know you read TTD forums. If you read this, give your sources credit next time, don't steal, okay.

Please refer to the answer to this thread. You can see the question at 2:35. It's the same question, he only changed the 17-year-old to 9.

Oh, wow! Reading on quantum physics is easier to understand than this thread. It's amazing how a tiny 40 mm ball can be so intricate. LOL

After seeing the video again, the ball appeared to be travelling much slower than a normal BH flick. It may indicate that there are some downspin there. Nevertheless, nothing wrong with being a low-level player and giving comments :)

Let's blame the video :ROFLMAO:

Sidespin, yes. Side + top, definitely. Side + down, no (it could be, if he brushes the bottom + forward motion but it's difficult, IMO). Down, no way!

I'm not sure how to explain, this might come off as a bit sloppy. Imagine hitting the same spot as he did (3–4 o'clock) with long pips, the ball is going back with topspin, right? He just replaced the pimples ‘effect’ with brushing/lifting. All he did was that, IMHO.

Well, have to agree. This is an easy stroke. I've done it so many times. It definitely a topspin return.

He simply picked up the ball between 3 and 4 o'clock, thereby preventing its fall. That's all.

It is more friendly to Asians in general. IDK.

Hit the point that has the least rotation, in other words.

Backhand I accidentally hit the table lightly when I did a BH loop, but the rubber thorned so badly. Forehand The worst part was that I didn't hit anything other than the ball. I think it's because of my FH loop, where I always hit the ball on the left side of the rubber. This has never...

Is BH flick easy with G1?

It looks similar to the old Mantra I'm using right now. I love the rubber, but it is much more fragile than the others. The material is dry and feels like more artificial rubber than pure rubber. Is the new Mantra Pro also like that one?

LOL. It isn't cheap, not like changing an underwear :ROFLMAO:

I agree with your comments, but I'm not sure about the person who wrote the blog. He may be a good content writer, but he hasn't proved himself to the table tennis community. He never showed up in his videos. Not only that, he also repurposes a portion of his writing without crediting the...
