It's a good point about serve/return. It's like watching Ma Long vs ZJK, and if ZJK puts what looks like a relatively easy serve in the net, saying "PAH! Look at that ZJK.... I could beat him!" I'm doing some training tonight with my partner - I'll try and get some practice match video and...

People should always be careful (and kind!) when giving constructive critiscm on other people's videos. I think this gets a bit lost when the language barrier comes into it (non english speaking people can come across very blunt and to the point, when in fact, it's all they know and they are...

To be fair, I think it should be mandatory for people to post ANY video of themselves playing TT - Good or bad!

No doubt! I would hate to pass my opinion on someone's overall game (especially give them a "rating") unless they really wanted me to. I look at a lot of guys in videos and think "Yeah, I'd beat them!" - But the reality could be very different!

I guessed you missed the part about "billions of dollars worth of R&D". So many reasons why I couldn't make it myself (although others have quite clearly made their own custom bats). As for testing, I've tested quite a few blades in the last few weeks to get a feel for what I wanted. These...

Lol! I have the Garaydia.... I'll just paint the handle ;)

I'm not wishing to quash any young ideologies.... But no..... Sales people are not honest. Marketing companies are even less honest. Butterfly is a mixture of Sales people and Marketing people (with a few billion dollars worth of R&D). FYI - I'm a massive Butterfly fan. Love the stuff. But...

Hi Darnner123 - You've come out with some absolute beauties in the last few hours. The Garaydia is quite literally, the same as the Amultart - It's just Butterfly marketing spiel. Also.... 1 of the things you are right about, is that it was designed for the Plastic Ball..... Which means they...

Compared to Tenergy? Not as good, but then again, I haven't seen many rubbers which can last as long. However, the people who play with MK-P at my club say it lasts a long time for them - I'd guess perhaps 90% of the life of Tenergy.

Couldn't disagree with you more. Didn't like the Viscaria when I tried it - Garaydia ZLC is basically a rebranded Amultart and I absolutely love the short game with it. I guess it would be boring if we all liked and used the same stuff!

Is that way the Chinese don't boost their rubbers? Or why no one uses Tenergy and everyone has really slow rubbers.... Oh wait...... :D

Tibhar EVO MX-P will do the trick.

It's funny, people always told me they hated my set up (SC with Tenergy), but I had grown used to it for years...... Having used the Garaydia for a few sessions now, I see what they meant about pushing! On reflection.... The SC with T64/05 really was a nightmare to keep there ball short! That...

Hi Kukamonga, Out of pure curiosity, have you ever used any of these "super fast" set ups? The reason I ask, is that on a graph, or looking at the cold hard stats, something like the Schlager Caron with T64 seems like it would fire faster than a bullet..... But the reality is, it's just not...

I'll also reply - I'm in the same country as Passifid below me, but the leagues I play in "appear" to be more on the serious side. 1. There are lots of teams dotted all over the country, and providing you don't live in an extremely remote area, there will likely be 4 or 5 different teams, all...

Gotcha! It's very hard to make a judgement based on a small portion of footage. Plus, you have highly ranked players who look ugly when playing, and good looking players whose results are poor! We have fairly good depth in England - I'd say it's pretty interchangeable between top 600 and 400...

Hi NL - I'm sure I've missed this along the way, but what IS your USATT rating? Also, what was the idea behind posting the video in the first place?

Thanks, I was trying to get the same output from the shots as when I had my left foot further forward (which made it easier to generate the power from the hip twists) in the previous videos.

its a working progress, but for the couple of minutes I managed to hit (other than the matches), it felt good. Still plenty to work on - Thanks for everyone's comments!
