  1. Loki Honor ALC Review

    I wish I had read this last year! It puts life in perspective for sure!
  2. DHS H3 vs Yasaka Rakza Z

    Good luck, let me know how it goes. I just gave up because I don't have time to train, I figured it was easier to go to something that arched less.
  3. DHS H3 vs Yasaka Rakza Z

    Actually this is a common misconception, when you have a high throw rubber, to counterspin, you open the paddle a bit and hit through the ball more from open to closed. just not as powerfully. It is the misconception that you need to close the paddle more and more that actually makes the...
  4. Why do people say LP's should be banned?

    He flat hits the ball and sometimes chops down on it(especially on backhand, sometimes on forehand), but the pace mostly and the consistency are hard to differentiate from topspin (his motions deliberately do not produce topspin) so many players just dump the ball in the net because they are...
  5. Why do people say LP's should be banned?

    The deadness of DeWitt's rubbers is overstated. He has looped to me before and I have dumped his backspin serves into the net as well. While he does play a bit better as his rubbers get worn, it is never really to the point of being anti. His friend, Larry Bavly, has pointed out that he can...
  6. Why do people say LP's should be banned?

    Waran was my favorite SP when I used to go back and forth. Should probably give it a go again sometime.
  7. DHS H3 vs Yasaka Rakza Z

    Would be interesting to see that. That said, I don't play with 39 degrees so that might be the difference. But Rakza Z has a safety limit for me that is easy to exceed, H3 not as much.
  8. DHS H3 vs Yasaka Rakza Z

    That said, I played with Rakza Z and H3 41 degrees ans I understand what his coach is saying. Rakza Z just doesn't take power well. It has great spin but you can't eliminate some balls.

    If so, what do you think of him? I find his videos amusing and occasionally insightful but more amusing more often than insightful... below is one of the more insightful ones....
  10. ITTF/WTT problems reported from players

    In real business, unless you are dealing with a corrupt government or a mafia, you are not dealing with a party that has the right to penalize you and not pay you.
  11. ITTF/WTT problems reported from players

    Someone else pointing out that they were happy that Dang and Kallberg lost in Incheon so they could be back in time for German league matches on Sunday. I can't believe that WTT is clueless about what they are doing, there essems to be some deliberate incompetence driving this.
  12. Want to improve need Feedback!

    Toby is exactly the kind of player you ideally want to get some of what he does into your game. When he gets easily opportunities of his serve or his pips, he loads his body to prepare a powerful shot. The loading is in the legs and completed by a whippy arm motion. Since you want to crack...
  13. Want to improve need Feedback!

    Since people like you have never seen play with a few exceptions are giving you a lot of technical advice, let's discuss strategy a little and some of the things that you need to solve that may get you points in the short term and the frame work I apply to these things. The framework I like to...

    Always fun when your favorite player wins a comeback victory from the jaws of defeat! GO WCT! He also saved match points in the 5th.

    Thanks, I see that now. Hopefully, your line of thinking will improve the current situation. Cheers!
  16. Why do people say LP's should be banned?

    I have indulged my worst instincts a bit too much on this thread, in the absence of anything new and substantive, I point back to my original post to Viper, which was all I really needed to say...

    Have you been body snatched? Who is this coach? Why are you listening to him? What changed?
