I think the meta for receives is still FH drop-short/long push on that side of the table, few people have a good enough BH flick and strong enough skills to step around. LYJ is much more selective nowadays against whom he plays BH flicks all the time and there was a time when FZD used to BH...

Honestly? If they can't block even basic exercises, just play matches with them, with goals in your mind. Like: "I will slow loop every ball, not rush and won't make unforced errors". Or "I will stay close to the table and play aggressive". One thing I do is that I serve only one serve the whole...

Yeah, he had played close games against Falck and Truls, beaten Tom Jarvis recently. We also have Lakatos Tamás, who has beaten Källberg in the last WTTTC and Cedric Nuytinck. We also have Ecseki, who has more experience as well and a new national champion from last year as well...

That's actually very useful info! Our home court is very good, TT friendly sports floor, but in the league 1/2 of the flooring is slippery, which is terrible for me pivoting all the time. I will look into the shoes you recommended!

Thx! Probably equivalent to the Joola ones I used to have.

Now I checked and indeed, it looks like the Wave Medal 6 soles. It's out of stock in most places, I can imagine they sold the rights after phasing out the Medal 6. It's approximately half the price as the Wave series.

Well, I can't speak for other countries, but we sent our 2 best players and for the 3rd place a junior to get experience, instead of any of the 4 stronger players we have. Which is a bummer, I think we could have comfortably beaten Brazil, maybe Singapore and probably England too. I think where...

As the title, does anyone have experience with the Victas V>614 shoes? I am mainly interested in their durability. I could get them really cheap, but had bad experiences with similarly priced joola shoes, as they died after a few months of training.

I agree with the wrong game plan. Hari switched to hitting the ball without much spin compared to the early sets and he was inconsistent. Liang could adapt to the strokes and his shots had much better margin for error in the later sets. I am happy to see that the spin oriented players can still...

Alexis missed a high ball, but LJK missed a lot too.And while 10-9 is more important, the donkeys broke LJK's momentum then.

Now we see why Fang Bo said Liang Jingkun plays the most spin oriented game in the CNT. His rhythm is much slower compared to the european powerhouses but oh boy, it's hard to deal with those loaded arcing loops.

Only NB2, northeast.

She is 13. It's hard to judge her level, because we don't have an elo/gecko point system and she is competing against girls, but I would guess she would be around 2300 or so. She has wins against top 100 womens players. I don't think comparing would be fair, as she trains more and has very high...

Hungary had a prodigy, but Croatia has her now. Our incompetent association banned her, sabotaged her (among many of our most talented players), stole her money (yes, literally), saying "she isn't even our most talented player, thinks too much of herself". After years of no change, her family...

But also, he probably weren't training as much in those times. I hope we can see more into his trianing regime.

In general it very much depends on your playstyle and technique, but in general I think aiming for slightly slower setups than what you can play well in training is a good idea. If the rubber starts to wear down or the air is humid, the spin will decrease and shots that were close to the edge of...

In general I don't think it's a good idea, but if your your is to just have fun, you could experiment with some very easy to play setups instead of high performance ones.

Well, Togami has been very inconsistent, but he still has a good chance against anybody maybe except WCQ. And Uda can bring down most top players if he is in good form as well. Truls might not be a good 'team player', but a team should function just as well if one of the players is aloof...

Two different Aliexpress stores. I checked the code and they are genuine. But funnily enough, the one I use now gone from completely non-tacky to somewhat tacky over two months. Back then it couldn't lift the ball at all, now it lifts it, although the ball doesn't stay on it like back in the day.

Against other sp players for me the biggest trap is to overthink the incoming shots. If I treat them as an inverted rubber, I can automatically land my shots. For short pips to be really effective you have to hit fast, like Mima Ito. There is a girl in our club who was playing regular topspins...
