The last time I ordered MK, they sent it by DHL, and it definitely wasn't what I selected. But as Zeio pointed out, shoes are much heavier than rubbers.

I used to live in a Philly suburb so I know a lot of players from Philly, NY, NJ, MD, DC and VA since I used to drive around and play a lot in the early 2010s, and less so in the later part of teh decade. I am close to one of his friends who is a 2000 level player. Al definitely knows who I...

It's completely natural, especially when you frame the events as things that are much more important than they really are. There is a lot of self-learning and perspective that can be gained from table tennis training and tournament play. In the end, you have to find the mindset that enables...

Welcome to the addicted to TT improvement club!

A couple of points, I usually don't watch backhand topspins from behind so maybe you are doing things I can't see. But when I look at it, you are pronating from the shoulder to get most of your effect. And I think this is because your backswing is insufficient to shorten the follow through...

The part of getting through Japanese post is usually quick, the same for US post. but no one can say how long it will stay in US customs if it is a parcel. 2 weeks is how I think of rubber. If it is shoes, it will again depend on US customs. Just keep that in mind please. Hopefully they can...

He must have improved a lot from when I remember him then. His rating is likely no longer accurate.

Awesome you were in Philly. Maybe if it was 2 years ago, I would have come pick you up, taken you to Trolley Car TTC and bored you to death lol. Though it was probably too close to the pandemic for comfort. Al is a good guy, I hope you beat him good lol. Though he was improving when I last...

Not sure whether you mean USA or wherever you are, but if you mean USA, it depends on whether they use express postage or DHL, which they sometimes use without advertising it. DHL, you get TT11 type speed with about 5 days or less after the date of purchase/shipping, and if they use Express...

So the guy I played last week on Satutday morning sends me a text at night yesterday asking me whether I can come in this Saturday morning. So of course, me being me, I oblige. It's a church with carpeted floors so the ball has a reasonable bounce. We warm up and then do some multiball, I try...

This I will definitely give a shot. Maybe my current issues with MK are sponge hardness related but I struggled to get more power out of it when I went for more power.

60km is about how long I have to drive to play on some days. The difference though is that the level.is decent after the drive and you guys use km to make people drive slowly, while we measure in miles so it helps people drive faster lol.

We need to turn you into a wrist spinner. Then your talent will shine and you will like the harder stuff as well.

Someone is paying attention!

He is also advertising for his sponsors. People should not be so naive about these things.

Maybe you are right. Maybe if I spent some time testing G1 next to MK, maybe I will realize that my impact depth and swing speed have reach a point where neither rubber works for me anymore and they are more similar than different. I have my doubts about this, I felt G1 and C1 were both more...

All my house guests are gone so I managed to get out to a club today at a recreation center to play. I didnt realize it before moving to Texas but I chose a relatively poor location to live for TT. While there is one weekly location about 25 minutes away on Sundays, most locations are 40 mins...

If you serve short and someone can always push the serve short, then maybe you are serving too obviously short. and maybe too short. But if he is determined to loop, he is going to loop if you go long first. You can't prevent that. unless you get the ball go long first for you and you decide...

He isn't hyper-aggressive, he is playing high level table tennis. When I got coaching from a national level coach, he told me that short game is the biggest thing that distinguishes the high level players, and that pushing long on a regular basis was a death sentence at that level. IF he has...

This is my kind of table tennis - thank you!
