No I haven´t. But then it would feel even harder and also harder to spin + lose spin that I can generate. From what I read so far, you should always go for max thickness. He sometimes pivoted so I was actually scared of him pivoting thats why I prefered to go even wider to his backhand...

I have to disagree with almost all of your points. There is a difference between same stroke of a player with 2 different rubbers / setup. No I didnt put improvement down. I just proved you that I got better with this setup. Even you said that yourself. I can also feel that I activate the...

The question is how come I was mostly not prepared for those placements? He plays so unorthodox that I am one step too late to see where he is gonna play the next ball. Anything else I quite agree with you. I am just more angry about myself not being able to beat someone who plays as if he...

both new sheets but I didn´t buy them at the same time. Bought this pair 5 months later. But to be honest when I play in our hall with our balls it feels good still. Here I played in a different hall which was very hot compared to ours + a different ball I haven´t played before (quality low even...

This is me ~4-5 months ago against the same player. I think we are talking about the same but with different reasons. I did say that I want to change to a slower equipment. But I don´t want to give up the spin my current setup provides me. There are videos of me playing with G1 and R7. There...

No. Then I would lose even more. Unless as you said I only want to focus on tactics. But I am not that good of a player to learn that by myself while playing against my opponent. I am mostly focusing on getting some quality topspins on the table. With that setup you recommended they would have...

I just remembered that I weighted the new D09c sheets aswell. My Rubbers weigh the same. Maybe 1 or 2g +-. So that can´t be it. Also the same vendor. But it legit just feels harder. Back then as I said I had a softer feel, almost like my g1 that I had used previously. Right now it just feels...

I just realized I had the video links messed up. Game C is this game against Dominik: I had 2 games against the lefty and one where I won anyway. So when I was talking about breaking the defense line I was talking at this. Against the lefty: As you analyzed I was struggeling mainly when he...

No its fundamentally different. If I would do the same stroke as him my balls would definetly fly out every single time. He hits the balls from the back and it curves right back on the table still. Meanwhile I have to hit the ball at almost 12 o clock to do the same. But my margin of error is...

Also when this season ends (end of march) I wanna try a different setup. I want to try something that comes close to Ma Longs racket. Feels like his setups base speed is very slow and spinny while mine is very fast and spinny. Because of my long arm I don´t need that much base speed. I could hit...

3-1 GAME A 2-3 GAME B 2-3 GAME C Game B: Two games lost in the 5th set. One because I was too much under pressure with his serve. I really don´t know how to deal with this type of serves at this level. Because if I just hold the racket or push back they get to attack. So mainly I was...

It´s not bad to expect the serve short first. Usually I adapt during/after the first set. Because there are still some players who can serve long or randomly throw in a half long. And you can practise this for 15 years with the same player and you will know his serves in that hall on that table...

I just wanted to quickly add that in the video he was talking about half long balls. With the way how its translated you would get fu** over if the ball actually would land on the table the 2nd time. I see pro players loop even those that would land the 2nd time on the table unlike how its...

I struggle with these kind of videos especially from this channel. I have seen many other videos where they talk about a concept when to hit and also how - The way they demonstrate it doesn´t match with how they actually play the stroke out.

only very old sheets. So not worth mentioning. Overpriced for an old rubber imho

try all. you will pick up something from each of them that works for you.

idk maybe because both blades are about the same in terms of speed? I was probably even better when lobbing. But then again everyone plays better when not under pressure. Its hard to simulate to be under pressure. Then it will truly show if you are better with the blade or not.

The only other Racket I would try would be the DHS W968 But for a blind buy it costs a lot. Otherwise I have no favourism. I even thought about giving blades such as Viscaria or some other ALC blades a shot. But I am not a Racket Junkie more like a Rubber junkie I would say. On Average I play...

Also check out the rankings everyone is 50+ years old. Tabletennis will die out here soon I guess

Yeah thats a good point. I will be looking for an opportunity to play in a higher league but I am not sure if its worth changing clubs. Players from other clubs that are at that high level are a bit strange. And I will be under lots of pressure again... I like my current teammates. Only downside...
