    Yep, so what happened to "once it comes off the racket then throw it in the trash"?
  2. San Francisco looking for training partner.

    I 3-0 2200 "gods" and use Hurricane. I talk to way more 2600s that are H3 users than you do. You have no idea what you are talking about, you just got a few opinions on something and think it's a universal truth. And again that's coming from someone who personally doesn't reboost. You have no...
  3. WTT Champions Macao 2024, 9/9-15

    Because given the choice to use your unexcused absences from class on going to WTT Macao or going to 888 to train with choppers, she probably chose the tournament experience, but I can't speak for her. You'd be surprised how little the commitment to winning means to a lot of pros, especially...
  4. WTT Champions Macao 2024, 9/9-15

    Difficult when you're a full time student at a demanding university.
  5. San Francisco looking for training partner.

    This you? This guy was claiming ten years ago he would destroy any non-import USA players including two different national champions, who were both probably around 2600 at the time. LMAO. To go from "easily destroying 2600s" to barely cracking 2200 in 10 years....sure wouldn't want to take...
  6. San Francisco looking for training partner.

    Once again you are incorrect on this. There are plenty of high level Chinese players who reboost, you just haven't spoken to them. All you are really proving is that you don't get to speak to many of the actual 2600+ gods or else you would know that they fall into both camps on the reboosting...
  7. Major League Table Tennis (MLTT)

    Carolina will be the team to beat with a core of Angles, Eugene, Aida and a very strong 4th option in Ly/S. Naresh/Lorentz/Kai. Seattle should be expected to enter the playoff conversation this season with Kou Lei and Pistej in the picture. Bay Area and Texas Smash should return as well but no...
  8. San Francisco looking for training partner.

    And what exactly does this mean?
  9. San Francisco looking for training partner.

    Even though you were publicly saying as far back as 2020 that ESN and Xiom etc are trash and that Butterfly/09C is the best?
  10. San Francisco looking for training partner.

    Massive moving of the goalposts. You said that everybody knows that sealing doesn't change the feeling. Have you entertained the possibility that there are players in between your level and Quadri's level that might be able to discern differences that you can't?
  11. San Francisco looking for training partner.

    Everyone knows that except for some of your continent's recent Olympic representative players and coaches so maybe you can teach them, as well as us on this thread, what the right way is, since many people who are competent players and coaches have noticed a difference in feeling and glue...
  12. San Francisco looking for training partner.

    If he was as good at table tennis as he is at making himself widely disliked, both online and in the real world, he'd be 2700 by now...
  13. San Francisco looking for training partner.

    I have heard lots of 2500+ players and coaches who are of the same opinion as OP. I also do the same myself (don't reboost, just keep it on then replace). It is certainly a valid opinion, so this thread has probably swung too far in the opposite direction, but not the only opinion. There are...
  14. San Francisco looking for training partner.

    Jokes aside, I am pretty sure most 2200+ players who are familiar with a certain blade unsealed, could tell if they were playing with a sealed version of that same blade.
  15. San Francisco looking for training partner.

    It is 100% true that waterbased glue softens the blade, @scrubplayer is right here. For this reason, a lot of good players will switch their blade after some period of time because of the softening, though some also don't mind that and continue to use the blade for eternity. It is also true...
  16. San Francisco looking for training partner.

    Of course. It's just that OP seems to be implying that, even though he has put in a good amount of dedicated training time over the past 6 years, he was being significantly held back by his choice of equipment. This is possible and does happen to people but is not the case for him given that he...
  17. WE CHALLENGED AFRICAN CHAMP QUADRI ARUNA!

    Several people told me similar about the Quadri FH having the best shot quality in the world. Calderano and Jorgic were mentioned as well.
  18. San Francisco looking for training partner.

    I'm sure some do...all the higher level ones I know have plenty of access to the more select or restricted products.
  19. San Francisco looking for training partner.

    What about the kids that blitz to 2200 that stuck with ESN companies and did what their coach recommends and focused on training?
