  1. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    Practiced a lot yesterday. Probably a little too much practice. I posted some of the videos publicly. I really need to fix my banana flick.
  2. Nexy Karis rubber first impressions

    All that work for a biased review... j/k. Interested in the rubber and will hit when we next meet.
  3. Nexy Karis rubber first impressions

    So does the topsheet have grip or not? Is this better than MX-P or not? Tenergy 05? Can you find an objective 3rd party to review? (NL in harsh anti-biased reviewer and journalist mode)
  4. Ask ITTF President Thomas Weikert a question on the TTD podcast!

    Let me give an example. There are people who do not know the exact rules for selecting Olympic players. There are people who do not know that the rules in 2008 were different from the rules in 2012 and that the rules in 2016 were different from both 2012 and 2008. Now if Weikert spoke about...
  5. Ask ITTF President Thomas Weikert a question on the TTD podcast!

    I think sometimes, it is better to ask for clarification of what someone is writing than to misinterpret it to get a chuckle. What I meant was that there was nothing that Weikert said that one could not know if one read Larry Hodges blog or followed ITTF discussions that were done on ooakforum...
  6. Ask ITTF President Thomas Weikert a question on the TTD podcast!

    Yes, maybe they were too high. But why does that mean I need meds? Could you explain in more detail? IF you read the main podcast thread, Tornado16 expressed the same sentiments that I did. Does he need meds too?
  7. Ask ITTF President Thomas Weikert a question on the TTD podcast!

    I think it is better to ask questions about what you don't understand or explain why you are acting like Weikert is your daddy. What did he say in the podcast that impressed you?
  8. Ask ITTF President Thomas Weikert a question on the TTD podcast!

    Lisening to the podcast so far, I could be ITTF president... I know as much as he does - I just don''t know the people.
  9. Ask ITTF President Thomas Weikert a question on the TTD podcast!

    And you were chewing popcorn idly on the sidelines as I tried to get Tony's Table Tennis to see this perspective?
  10. Tibhar Evolution EL-S and FX-S

    Has he provided pricing?
  11. Ittf????

    Classic as always.
  12. Ask ITTF President Thomas Weikert a question on the TTD podcast!

    Dan, I am really checking this website like every 10 seconds for this podcast.
  13. Rebulding Fundamental strokes for my game play

    There is a playing distance and footwork factor that you are not seeing based on his assessment of the time to always the shot to get to his opponent and the quality of return the opponent will likely make. Timo Boll has also argued that the equipment Ma Long is using enables Ma Long to play...
  14. Rebulding Fundamental strokes for my game play

    Depends on the philosophy of the player. But that is like saying that the swing Ma Long uses when he counter loops is the same as the swing he uses when he gets an easy ball, just more powerful. You can use video to verify for yourself that this is not true for Ma Long. In fact, the biggest...
  15. Rebulding Fundamental strokes for my game play

    I combined stroke mechanics and technique. If we distinguish them, then you are closer to the main point than I am.
  16. Ask ITTF President Thomas Weikert a question on the TTD podcast!

    I am probably anticipating this one more than Waldner's. May spawn new videos from DTopSpirit!
  17. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    So I played again today and played decently - the focus is still the same - spinning more and moving less violently. My spin is getting really good again. I haven't tried Hexer in a while, but it might be done. Everyone says the T05 spin is more, though Hexer blocks better. I just have to...
  18. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    Maybe Mizutani, CCY and ZJK have switched to T80 but at least one of them, if my memory serves me right, still uses T64. In the end, just pick what you like and practice, practice, practice.
  19. Rebulding Fundamental strokes for my game play

    Yes, but this is why you can't speak about why stroke mechanics are better without talking about what the stroke is designed to do. What you are doing is standard for a kill stroke. But we are trying to teach you standard rally strokes. OVer time, they may influence the consistency and...
