  1. How to Solve hesitation

    Hesitation is very common. Everyone gets nervous and tight whatever level you play at. So welcome to the club! 😊 I suppose the first thing to quantify is can you flick off both sides with a good percentage?. This is key before moving on to all the nuances of other strokes/spin changes etc...
  2. Tips for Recovering a fast loop down the line?

    I would suggest that that maybe you aren't recovering from your previous stroke so well or deciding/moving even before you have reset to see the next line of attack. Training some irregular crosscourt /line drills would be beneficial. Also what type of level are you playing if you don't mind...
  3. Calderano Signs with Joola (#139)

    Fair play on that one definitely! 😊
  4. Calderano Signs with Joola (#139)

    Makes total sense and don't blame you at all. This is your living and passion. It must have been a tricky job walking around knowing you have "that player" and bursting to sing it from the rooftops that the deal is done like you know the ending of the thread just after/before it's started :) ;)
  5. Calderano Signs with Joola (#139)

    The opening teaser marketing on Hugo by Joola is very clever. Almost lifestyle and Federer like. Engaging definitely. It looks very classy and invested. The equipment will be key when released obviously but it's looking like a good campaign out of the blocks. Matt H - nice job Joola 👍💪
  6. Butterfly Zyre 03

    This is one of the funniest things I have seen in a while! 😊 😊 😊 So wrong but right for many just seeing some equipment. It encompasses the frustration that many players feel even before "hitting" the table against funny bat players... The haymaker over hand at the end...
  7. Merry Christmas everyone! 🎄🤶

    Merry Christmas everyone!. Hope all have a great Christmas. Cheers
  8. Video Footage Safe Thread

    Hey Deep, Really nice training videos, you are hitting some really powerful strokes. Agree on shortening the forehand stroke a bit in the faster feeds as dropping your racket excessively with a extra long stroke can lose you time. At times it looks a little bit ragged on the forehand, even...
  9. Fast Hands

    It's the smiles after that shot from both of them seems really good spirits.

    Thanks NL 👍.

    Hi Deep, Hitting some nice balls in the training with MN at the AW I think? Good work and keep it up. Cheers Apologies I forgot, not able to comment on this.
  13. Donic Bluestorm Pro?

    Anybody have any info of this rubber? I had a brief hit last night for about 1/2 Hour on a players setup and was impressed by it. Looking for any real world reviews from users. Cheers GZ
  14. Sleeping after a late TT session

    Food and Beer. Fantastic for a social relax and forgetting all those missed topspin shots. In the UK. After a late one it was a Pizza on the way back or a crafty burger. After a big match, there isn't much to do after the buzz of playing apart from replay every single point in your head till...
  15. Pro LP/inverted penholder

    Must be very tricky for the juniors to hit a style at that level so unfamiliar and different from the norm. There's some great angles and good hands in the highlight points. Old school throwback with a nice twist.
  16. WTT London Star Contender - October 2025

    I'm down Sunday finals as well 👍
  17. TTD Community Meet Up and Tournament?!

    On a serious note ....Just checking there will be beer involved?
  18. Butterfly Zyre 03

    Zyre 03 is ok. A halfway house between D05 and D09c which I why I think some of the pro's have moved over to it. It's quicker, a bit less spin which isn't a problem for them at their level. That bit extra power they get from it makes a difference. It seems to be a bit like Marmite (UK) with the...
  19. Benyamin Faraji defeats Lin Shidong

    "Route one" type of play is quite a basic method of playing but does seem to be incredibly effective for the Iranian lad. Serve quality long, you know the return you are getting is long and hopefully weaker in this case. Then you are set ready to go to work the point hard. This takes out alot...
  20. How heavy is too heavy for a setup?

    My rubbers are pretty heavy so definitely makes sense to save where I can.
