  1. Donic Glues

    I live, die and swear by Varioclean. And if you glue with thick layers, it is easier to remove. But I don't and don't care. I want my rubber to stick and restick easily. Varioclean does that for me.
  2. Women's World Cup 2015

    I hope the ladies aren't offended by being referred to as "Men" above the list of participants...
  3. What oils can be used as boosters?

    I actually don't but since you are just about the only person who misses the point of my original statement, I don't need to explain it. The explanation is not required for those who already get my point, but the words I used to express my point didn't change.
  4. How do fake blades perform?

    I would rather buy a copy of a popular blade by another brand/manufacturer than a fake. The fake supports the practice of counterfeiting, which I despise. There are many good cheap blades - a blade is just a crafted piece of wood and in some cases, other materials.
  5. Help make aerial a better player

    I agree. I was framing it more in the context of manosb's post. Nice high level players, if you are around them, might come over and diagnose you. Aerial doesn't play in that kind of place.
  6. Polish Open 2015

    Mizutani lost to Wong Chun-Ting.
  7. Help make aerial a better player

    Many people need a lot of work. If you have coached people who didn't learn as children or worked on you game as an adult learner, you will appreciate that it is not easy to learn as an adult unless someone is teaching you and knows how to teach you. Aerial doesn't live around good players so...
  8. Cheap Training Balls (Plastic)

    Kinson 1-* ball from ttnpp.com. 75 for $25.
  9. Top 10 annoying situations every table tennis player has encountered!

    For hand-breaking serves, there is nothing wrong with letting the opponent win the point. This is not claycourt tennis and we are not Gael Monfils...
  10. Two types of backhand flick

    IT' actually a backhand stroke for shakehanders. Petrissa Solja is one player who does it fairly often and obviously.
  11. New Equipment Set Up

    Evolution over Bluefire, but that's just me. Good luck with it and let us know how it shakes out.
  12. New Equipment Set Up

    Yeah, but T80 is not T80FX... the people I have seen use T80FX have got me thinking really hard about it. That's how well they play with it. On the other hand, the guy(kid actually) with the best backhand in my club uses T80. So it could go either way. I am the wannabe using MX-S...
  13. Polish Open 2015

    I heard Daylight Savings ends in Poland tomorrow so the matches start an hour earlier than you might think based on Today if you are in the US (our daylight savings ends next week).
  14. New Equipment Set Up

    In general, when saying a rubber is slower or faster than another, it has to be clearer what one is saying. All people mean is that when you spin with T80FX vs. T05FX, T80FX has less arc, so it comes through the table faster. Also, the spin generated is a little lower for that reason. However...
  15. New Equipment Set Up

    Get T80FX for the BH - disagree with Carl on this one. T80 or T80 FX is actually the rubber I would use right now if looking for a change - it allows you to play all the BH shots with control, hits, loops and blocks.
  16. Polish Open 2015

    Hi, Sali, are you watching it in person at the arena sometimes?
  17. looking after the bat

    Yes! Come on fight! Fight laj!
  18. Polish Open 2015

    It's going to be a tremendous backhand battle between him and Fegerl - I am going to study that one for the rest of my life.
  19. Ma Long's excessive World Cup celebration causes injury!

    It's not the first loop that hurts but the 1000th...
  20. Polish Open 2015

    During the preliims, I found Karlsson's margin of victory in his matches against good opposition very impressive but the Yan An match confirmed it.
