  1. Lin Gaoyan's Style and the Poly Era

    So the spin decay argument was more of an intuit e comment, as I have not worked through the details yet but I wanted to share with others and encourage them to do so as well. Challenging this notion will only help clarify the idea. Thinking as I type, assume a match between chopper And a...
  2. Lin Gaoyan's Style and the Poly Era

    I speak relatively, of course. XX will rotate slower with arms extended than XX arms contracted, when XX generates the exact power. (When my chair was already spinning, extending/contracting my legs would make the spinning chair slow down/speed up.) This does not imply players XX or FZD are...
  3. Lin Gaoyan's Style and the Poly Era

    I know this is a bit of a hefty read, but please bear with me and tell me what you think! I've been watching LGY highlight reels and I've noticed something about his style. He is not a traditional hungarian style looper, even though he likely plays with traditional chinese rubbers. The other...
  4. Which physical exercises are the best for table tennis improvement?

    This is very good. However, for table tennis you must go lower.
  5. Which physical exercises are the best for table tennis improvement?

    One good routine that you will find particularly beneficial is to work on your squat while you squat. Whenever you find yourself in a public restroom going #2, hover your *** just a few inches about the toilet while you shed your load. Be careful not to make contact!. Hold this position for the...
  6. Help on Argumentative Research Paper on Table Tennis

    It's somewhat of a catch 22 isn't it? If one could make money playing table tennis, one would be motivated to excel at it (financial stability would mean one could dedicate more time and effort and into it), but one can't really make make money doing it unless one is extremely successful at it...
  7. Asian Championships 2017

    I have this unshakable feeling that LGL did a screw job on his way out to feed his own ego. LGL likes embarrass players in public, props them up on a house of cards (the way he excessively praised LGY) only to tear them down when they falter... I've seen it before and I can't shake this feeling...
  8. Asian Championships 2017

    His loss against JM in the Olympics would suggest prior.
  9. Ma Long records first loss in 5 years!

    This! Is! Sparta I mean... China!
  10. Pay your respect to Carl!

    In the off chance you may find these words comforting, I thought I'd share. Whenever we muslims hear of the passing away of someone, we utter a spplication that roughly translates to "verily to God do we belong, and verily to Him is our return". I can't event begin to fathom your loss my...
  11. Asian Championships 2017

    I was joking somewhat, twisting what LGL said. My assessment of LGL's message is the same as yours. I also dissagree with LGL's assessment of XX's "lack of forehand" in a sense. His attacks haven't become more lax, nor has his forearm strength deminished. I wouldn't be surprised if he is...
  12. Asian Championships 2017

    Just saw coach ERT vid. LGL told XX to back his bags and leave.
  13. Need tips on improving

    What is your goal here? There are multiple ways to get better - you can keep playing and practicing, develop your own style and get fairly decent fairly quickly against your friends, or you can start from beginning, put in time and effort and try to do it right, sacrificing winning for a fairly...
  14. Quick about glue.

    I've tried leaving the rubber off for several days, even weeks. (I have a ruined pair from last year that is still to heavily domed to glue on). I'm wondering now if the baby oil actually breaks down the bond. The rubber stayed on for a day or so after I glued it using ktl wbg, but now it's...
  15. 20 minutes of Jun Mizutani serving

    What, you saying Asian men can't be beautiful? I think he looks plenty beautiful #nohomo
  16. Really Stiga? Carbonado 245/290

    I want their next blade to have not 3 times, nor 4 times, rather exactly 3.14159265358979 times the amount of textreme. The can then call it the stiga pie-90 or the stiga pie-45. But, I will settle for stiga log-90 and stiga log-45 as well, as long as they write it like: stiga(x) = e^x for...
  17. Slow down a blade or speed up the rubbers?

    I am a huge proponent of having multiple paddles in your arsenal, and actively rotating between them/playing with all of them as you try to improve. I even tend to start my warm up with a slower blade with amazing feedback and softer rubbers to find my touch (since I don't play very often) and...
  18. Quick about glue.

    Let me preface my comment with the fact that I don't actually play in tournaments, just like to mess around with some of my friends. I have some rubbers that I boosted with baby oil that have domed too much and wont stay on paddle. What kind of glue (waterbased or regular) can I possibly use...
  19. China stickiness rubber

    I wonder though how many people complaining about the H3 losing tackiness use the H3 in red?
  20. China stickiness rubber

    I have a 3 year old h3 neo which is still tacky AF... how are you guys managing to remove the tackiness?
