  1. Tenergy 64

    Review by 'NDH' on item 'Tenergy 64'

    I've been playing with Tenergy 64 on the Backhand for a year now. It's an excellent rubber for the punch blocking and blocks in general, as it doesn't absorb the spin as much as other rubbers. However, it is lacking in high quality spin away from the table - For this, Tenergy 05 is the much...
  2. Li-Ning Sizing Info?

    Hey guys, Has anyone bought any Li-Ning shirts in the past, and if so, how does the sizing compare? I've seen a few differences of opinion online! I'm a 46" chest - Would usually wear XL (UK) in most major sports brands. Looking at the Li-Ning sizing, a 46" chest would BARELY be a 4XL. Any...
  3. Serve practice - Inviting feedback

    I'm not going to repeat what others have said, I'm guessing from the spin and contact, you were of a decent standard before injuries? The one thing I'd say, as TTmonster has eluded too - Celluloid balls..... I see a ton of videos of people using celluloid balls rather than the plastic ones -...
  4. What is your USATT rating?

    This is what I was getting at with my initial query. There seem to be quite a few UK players who are interested in the USATT system, and would love to know where they sit - Me included to a certain degree. However, I reckon the vast majority of UK players would rate themselves much higher than...
  5. What is your USATT rating?

    Yeah, that link has been banded about before - It's a pretty good "rough" guide. Do you have a link to your stats on a TT365 website? It'll give people a much better indication of your level (assuming you want that, considering you started this thread). From experience, it's much harder to...
  6. What is your USATT rating?

    Out of curiosity, how are you working out your rating, if you are UK based?
  7. Coaching code of ethics

    My 2 cents.... There is a difference between how the Americans play and see the game (mainly tournaments, very individual etc), and we've discussed this in some detail before. People have given as much info as possible, and you haven't really answered the important questions. 1. How often...
  8. Who Will Win! Dimitrij Ovtcharov or Dan!?

    Guys, you do know it says to write your answers on YOUTUBE yeah?
  9. Choppers Perspective?

    Hi Yecats, Impossible to say if choppers favour one side over the other - It all depends on the player. I know a few of each - But ultimately, if they are good, they won't have a "much" weaker side. Patience? Again, you are asking generic questions which are only applicable to individuals. If...
  10. Need help fixing forehand technique

    First thing to say is what a massive improvement you've made in under a year! That is some seriously good work and you should be proud! As everyone else has said, there isn't a huge amount wrong with your forehand at all - If people were to be super critical, you could ever so slightly open the...
  11. am I right?

    The irony behind buying fake blades, but having a conscious over ripping off the Chinese store is rather amusing. This is my take on it..... If you bought a new one for £250 - You wouldn't accept any "discount" for a defect - You'd want a brand new one with no defects. As you paid a very...
  12. Butterfly poly ball

    If you can wait until later in the year, I'll be in Mauritius! lol
  13. Butterfly poly ball

    Well at least it's not just me! For those who say it's not heavy, that may be so (physical weight wise), but the coating and the general "thickness" makes it feel heavy - It's almost like the ball is made of a much thicker plastic. I'd also say they weren't anywhere near as spinny as the other...
  14. Butterfly poly ball

    Do you not find them extremely heavy? Feels like trying to hit/spin a brick!
  15. Butterfly poly ball

    What do you think to it Suga D? I absolutely hate it!
  16. Butterfly poly ball

    The G40+ new one?
  17. NEW ITTF.com Website - August 2016! Suggestions!

    Thanks for reaching out to the fans! I second the comment about youtube - I actually don't mind if it's only streamed on your website providing the quality is better, and it is available on all devices (i.e not flash based). Also, a "media" section on the website - Interviews, general videos...
  18. Tournament for Average American in: UK, France, Germany, Austria? During Holiday

    Hi Chuck, Just got your PM - I hadn't seen this thread before. You won't be able to play in any "sanctioned" tournaments in the UK without an ETTA membership number - You might find some local tournaments which happen semi regularly, but it would be a case of looking at the area you were...
  19. everything feels so slow....

    Oh, I have no doubt about that - But I think your humour gets lost in translation. When people genuinely think you want to stand there and not move at all..... It's worrying!
  20. everything feels so slow....

    OK guys..... To save anyone else from going to the effort of replying.... Kukamonger is only joking with you all..... He is a very capable player, who knows what works and what doesn't - Unfortunately (for you), the jokes might not translate into other languages. But rest assured.... He can...
