True. I find that there isn't much difference switching to Bluefire M1 or MX-P from Tenergy. I did have to train myself to brush more not to put the ball off the table with these rubbers but once you get that feel, they are interchangeable. The only time I seriously saw a benefit to switching...

I think it's purely the flat, orthographic long lens angle that they use. Look at how interesting the China Olympic warm up matches look from that one angle.

Is there a way to view what ITTF is actually working on in terms of bettering the sport? Is there even a communication gate between players and the ITTF? By looking at these questions alone and say equating table tennis to a version of software, the software is pretty broken. Most software...

Cool thanks!

Anyone buy this recently from a TT11 alternative? They are sold out. I'm talking a fair price, not teesport for 49.99 gbp though.

I think ML draws a huge amount of power from his weight transfer from the legs. There's a big rotation and transfer driven from the legs to the core with all of it landing on his left leg. Then you add on the most likely perfect timing and bat contact on the ball and finish it with those special...

How old is this little guy? He's got all the allez-yo, paddle air blowing, face fanning, hand on table wiping and between point bouncing down packed already.

The Timo-Joo point at 2:08 is amazing. You never get that sense of distance with the typical table tennis camera angle. We seriously need more camera experimenting when filming this sport.

Epic match and Xu Xin played very well. The last set where Xu was up 8-2 then lost his lead up to 10-9 had me pulling my hair out. Way to go Xu. Honestly watching ML he looked a bit tired and low energy on both of his matches against Flore and Xin. He wasn't using that insane power BH combined...

Yeah the high toss is a tricky one. I also counted 8 spinny backhands in the match that ML put off the table. It might not sound like much but for a 100 ranked player to do that to ML - impressive. Not only his serves and spinny BH but the points that Flore played from 8-8 in game 5 to win game...

What an amazing match Flore vs Ma. Always fun to see an under dog get within reach. The Chinese are so good at keeping mentally tight even when they are down. What I couldn't understand is how Flore was getting god-like spin which Ma put off the table so many times. The spinny serves and BH's...

Hey Dan, Out of all the blades that you and your hitting buddy have reviewed and owned, which is your favorite and why? Is there a clear personal best?

I think if Jun played like he did against Ovtacharov he'd have a good chance against ZJK.

Check out how many times William Henzell messes up WLQ with the tomahawk. Most likely because WLQ didn't train against this uncommon serve.

There's definitely a level of anticipation that gets high level players ahead of the game. Have you ever been told that you watch the ball with dead feet too much? I have. Which means you are waiting far too long after your opponent's hit to get into position. Check out this video of Ma Long...

Looks like those Polish are using crazy wood bats on table 1 over there on ITTF TV at the moment. http://www.tabletennisdaily.co.uk/livestreaming/

We can only hope that the rest of the manufacturers improve their balls & attempt to replicate the characteristics of the celluloid ball.

Yes you are probably right here. Im pretty sure that i didnt give it proper drying time. Cheers.

Ah cool thanks for the advice. I'll try an even re-glue and a better roller attempt. I dont think that its residue because these marks are indentations from ball hits. The rubber was perfectly smooth before i started using it.
