  1. WTT Contender Doha 2024

    I think there is/was a problem with the light or at least the lighting during this match anyway otherwise you would not see a shadow player on the table. There is little a camera position or setting can do to change that. If a player stands at the same angle opposite the light angle as the...

    :oops: against two oponents?
  3. WTT Contender Doha 2024

    What incredibly bad light in that playroom.:oops: It's as if they had to play against ghosts. What an amateurish state of affairs. Shame on the organisers.

  5. Question for Blade-Builders

    I am always curious to know how much pressure you compress the wood with and with which device. I also suppose that when you put more or less pressure on your wood it affects the characteristics of the blade.
  6. "Boring" AGM/BoD when it comes to rule changes?

    Doesn't matter. Was also not specifically in response to you but in general. It was about proposals and/or adjustments to regulations (nets, balls, rubbers, playing surface, etc.... I already described my proposal above, for the moment countless illegal services are given in my opinion every...
  7. "Boring" AGM/BoD when it comes to rule changes?

    Yes indeed, which is why my last sentence. A lot is allowed these days. Even throwing 20m with your wood is only penalised with a yellow cardboard.
  8. "Boring" AGM/BoD when it comes to rule changes?

    Lol, maybe they can start banning or at least regulating serving next to/upside the table. When I see Lim Jong Hoon (and there are a few more like that) pretty much standing with their body next to the table and as a result, in 90% of them serve their services above/over the table and take...
  9. How far do you think Sun Yang can go?

    I don't think he will ever make it to a top 5 or even top 10 within the CNT. I also see some (regular) tactical errors by Watanabe.
  10. What do you think of Yuna Ojio's style?

    I cannot think of any advantage to this kind of grip. It occurs to me that she would actually be better switching to handshake instead to pen grip but neither will happen. In any case, I don't see any big leaps forward in the near future for her.
  11. I hate you long-pimple blocker....

    It has never been fun but it has been a challenge every time.
  12. I hate you long-pimple blocker....

    Unbelievable, young player with material. No doubt his mentor must be cut from the same wood.:D
  13. I hate you long-pimple blocker....

    Not agree, but that has been discussed here before. They are only better thanks to their material. Give them normal 2x inverted rubbers and you will more than likely play them to all corners of the table or playing area. And weze they are also always the laziest players because they haven't...

    Your drawing is incomplete! There should also be a sequel, No.5...how would you draw it? :LOL:
  15. SDC Handmade Blades

    I have always followed this topic with interest because I was very interested in how others put together and made their timbers. My interest still stems from my younger years when we sometimes experimented with making our own speakers and table tennis wood. More than forty years ago, we bought a...
  16. Most cushioned shoe for table tennis?

    Indeed, Asics is better when you have a narrow foot. I also tried them and for me they were way too narrow. I have put Sorbothane insoles in my Mizuno's for years.
  17. WTT Contender Taiyuan 2023

    I am of the principle that, tactically, there is far too little parallel play, although there has been some change in this in the last few years. The scoring rate (if carefully executed) will be higher with a parallel ball because of the surprise effect.
  18. WTT Contender Taiyuan 2023

    Great match from Togami. :love: Real shame about his last three moves. But I have reservations about his tactics, or not... Pretty much all his BH balls went/were diagonal, at least 90%. Rarely, if ever, did he play a BH > parallel and when he did play one, 99% of them went wrong. Remarkably...
  19. WTT Champions Frankfurt 2023

    I had a thought exchange in another group about Lin's nationality. The other wrote that Lin was a Chinese. I messaged him that Lin is a Taiwanese. According to that man, Lin remains a Chinese, mentioning that a Cretan is also a Greek. An example that is not comparable at all in my opinion...
