  2. SARS-CoVID-2/ CoVID-19/ CoronaVirus: Information Only from Well Informed Members

    They just walked it back. Look for the press report.
  3. BH and FH Rubbers

    It isn't so much lower power as consistency given a swing speed. You aren't going to be able to get as much power and consistency on the backhand as the forehand because the strike zone for the stroke is much smaller and harder to adjust to the ball. Therefore using a softer rubber to...
  4. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    Your technique and movement is better than mine, I may hit a better ball sometimes with pure strength though that is debatable. You probably need more random drills to bring out your true footwork and stroke deficiencies close to the table. Good luck and hope you share more video and matches...
  5. My thoughts on Dignics 09c

    Yes, after being cut. I started the main experiment with T05H and Dignics 09C can't be that different.
  6. My thoughts on Dignics 09c

    It was maybe 2 to 4 grams per sheet. Not much, but for me a big difference since I hate head heavy stuff and use hard sponges. I don't get much more out of thicker hard sponge.
  7. My thoughts on Dignics 09c

    I use Dignics 09C and I like it a lot - use it in 1.9mm to take care of the weight.
  8. My thoughts on Dignics 09c

    He had many injuries as well, let's not remain entirely focused on the mental issues.
  9. Dusseldorf Masters 2020

    It isn't easy for any country to have more than one generational player and IMHO, Germany imported one as well to get two. Germany may not be at quite the same level after Boll retires and I don't think Dima will age as gracefully as Timo. But Germany will clearly be one of the top European...
  10. My thoughts on Dignics 09c

    Yes, which is why Freitas and Apolonia left Tibhar for Butterfly when they were required by Tibhar to use MX-P instead of Tenergy 05.
  11. Best Rubber for aggressive blocking and counter looping

    Don't try to substitute the effort required to improve with equipment changes. It doesn't work. You can play like Waldner with almost any modern inverted rubber, it all depends in what you are trying to do.
  12. Road to Tokyo 2020: Chinese TT Team

    Mi Hirano also has a WTTC bronze medal. He level has fallen quite a bit in competitive results since then but Japan is not China, in China, they would have figured our how to fix her by now. You seem to think that you can make any argument to avoid the facts but the decline of Hirano is not...
  13. Road to Tokyo 2020: Chinese TT Team

    Ma Long had won every title (continental) in existence except the WTTC and the Olympics. He even has a World Cup in 2012 which Chen Meng lacks. Not even close. Chen Meng is a good player so this is all just stuff and it is borderline nitpicking. It is just stuff to point out when someone...
  14. Road to Tokyo 2020: Chinese TT Team

    What has Chen Meng won? It isn't about rating her highly but that she lacks major titles.
  15. Road to Tokyo 2020: Chinese TT Team

    Chen Meng is probably my favorite lady player, no need to infer dislike from criticism.
  16. Road to Tokyo 2020: Chinese TT Team

    So Sun Yingsha and Ding Ning know how to deal with pressure and Chen Meng and Wang Manyu don't? ;)
  17. Testing Zoran Primorac's Table Tennis Bat!

    The innerfiber T5000 used to exist, it didn't solve all the problems you noted though. I still have a couple but I haven't tried them in a while. The problem with T5000 is the arc, for modern play you don't get spin on the ball so it places more limits on the shots you can play. At lower...

    This is a great video. There is one similar video I remember, but this is better.
  19. How to Play Like Ma Long: Secrets to Chinese Coaching (Not Clickbait)

    If you watch Ma Long in matches, especially when he is counterlooping cross court, it is very hard to say that Jang Woojin is exaggerating. I once told a friend that Ma Long uses more wrist than Timo Boll when looping. He thought I was joking but when he looked closely, he saw what I meant.
