What you talking bout, Willis? :mad: youtu.be/cC5KkXTgbbc?t=514 As I tell people all the time, I can't do better than Yogi Bear's review on mytt. http://mytabletennis.net/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=75650&title=stiga-2016-blades-updated-with-review

I haven't used either so I seriously can't tell you. I am a limba lover though, but everyone is different.

My point was that you can play an offensive style with an all round blade even up to the 2400+ level. Obviously the rubber is important. The point still stands though. A friend of mine was told by his coach to get rid of the one-ply Hinoki he loved so much and to switch to a Grubba all blade...

Question for everyone - how many people felt that it was 100% clear, with no doubt in their minds whatsoever, that when ZJ won all those majors in 2011, 2012, and 2013, that ZJK was the BEST player in the world, no controversy whatsoever? Again question for everyone - how many people felt that...

So Ma Long has 1 gold and 3 bronze. Zhang Jike has 2 gold and 1 bronze. Waldner has 2 gold, 2 silver, and 2 bronze. Where is this huge gap you are talking about? 3 or 4 medals vs 6? Out of how many events played? And since we know that the main reason why the Chinese lose out is...

I get why people think ZJK is the best player of all time or why he is the best player of this era. Some people make the same arguments for Nadal or Djokovic in different ways. The thing is that there is no way you can make it by looking at the numbers. You have to make it by the eye test...

Come again?

It is harder but the trade off is that if you swing hard and fast, the spin on drives is more with harder sponge. Softer sponges have a lower drive spin threshold so you won't get more spin by swinging harder. With harder sponges, the harder you swing, the more spin you get up to a higher...

Shuki, Danny Seemiller uses an ALL blade with Tenergy 05 1.9mm. I think that speaks for itself. I would not be surprised if a coach told me my blades were too fast for me.

Obviously, most informed players pick equipment to suit their style. Mastering your equipment requires you to adapt to its subtleties. The boost from equipment effects is usually limited and transient.

During the match, I thought it was standard stuff. After the match, my former coach thought it was a lucky shot. As my former coach, he doesn't see my footwork drills so I can't blame him. I was practicing this footwork a while back and posted some video on this thread. Carl made an...

Short pips both sides.

I will remember as will any serious TT fan. It is casual fans or just the larger public that do not remember. The comparison to Connors is a good try but is highly flawed for many reasons. Most importantly, Jimmy Connors is remembered for many things, and is considered one of the greatest...

Have you ever wanted to use Tenergy 05 because you didn't like your rubbers? Are you happy with the current state of serves and service rules in professional table tennis? What do you think of the practice of players marketing blades they never use? Who do you think is the most talented...

Footwork point of the match (Carl should know why, though the ball was faster than the ones I usually struggle with). youtu.be/CDIzuOr1wNs?t=1088

http://www.tabletennisdaily.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?10945-TT-video-YouTube-uploads&p=117412&viewfull=1#post117412 While that is the general idea, there are topspin motions that go around the ball, even when the contact is thick, and tospin motions that go into the ball, even when contact is...

Come on, you know I am going to give the equipment all the credit - that is what I do. Seriously, your grip is excellent. The relaxation is very obvious - I might have to share this video with my students.

Great stuff. I think it is becoming clearer and clearer that that the Ma Long, Zhang Jike and Xu Xin generation is special. It seems like there is a big gap after FZD (FB? YA? LJK? YZY? LGY?) so it might be an opportunity for other countries. That said, Germany will need Franziska to make...

I was seeded #2 in the Giant RR at my club and defended my seeding, though not without some interesting matches. I have been working on combining spin and power. I think my biggest lesson yesterday was that for an Euro rubber user, to use the ITTF terminology, "coating" the ball and "gumming"...

It's probably because you left that MX-P behind. People underestimate what Tenergy 05 can do for you if you let your technique do it.
