  1. WTT Contender Taiyuan 2023

    Wow Togami had some super saiyan moments in this final and still lost! LJK won in the end by his nasty deep push. Damn those final few deep pushes were so nasty that it made me question if I should even be playing with D05 on the FH still....
  2. WTT Contender Taiyuan 2023

    Liang Jingkun in major trouble now, he is just losing all the topspin rallies and cannot get an advantage in the BH-BH diagonal.
  3. Is it OK to play when you're feeling hurt at some places?

    Switch to long pips pushblocking lol TT will be super physically easy
  4. WTT Contender Taiyuan 2023

    Nobody likes the side angle lol...I have no idea why they insist on it!
  5. WTT Contender Taiyuan 2023

    if it is true, I need to get in some of that action lol
  6. WTT Contender Taiyuan 2023

    Cho Dae Song plays a bit like Chen Qi, he is fearless and plays all the crazy shots lol... what a cool player!
  7. Euro technique with Chinese rubber, or Chinese technique with Euro rubber?

    It is different for everyone. Truls Moregardh has a pretty big straight arm FH so does a lot of the other Swedish national team members like Kristian Karlsson. Even the Lebruns have pretty straight arms for their FH loops. There's a lot of top Europeans who don't loop like Timo Boll. Even...

    Yes - the spinny loop is extremely important as it gives you the margin of error against weird af balls especially coming from pips players. Loopkills look cool but if you look at your miss rate it can hurt your game more than it helps. The good old slow spinny loop can be killer especially if...
  9. WTT Contender Taiyuan 2023

    Omg I can't believe he stuck with T05 so long. D05 is superior in every single way, it didn't make sense that he stuck with T05 for so long...

    Fang Bo's channel is the best..... so much gold in there!
  11. WTT Contender Taiyuan 2023

    Why is it that the contenders have such good quality video and we have to suffer through the side angle crap at the wtt champions??!!
  12. Euro technique with Chinese rubber, or Chinese technique with Euro rubber?

    What is Chinese style and what is Euro style? Everyone has their own FH loop these days powered by very similar concepts.

    Best not to change setups. If you can't short push with Hurricane or D09c, something is wrong with your short push technique, not the setup. Both of these rubbers are the best at the short game especially Hurricane. I can short push sidetopspin serves even with Viscaria and D05 (probably one of...

    Haha you've been watching some Fang Bo tutorials ;)
  15. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    I haven't played TT for 3 weeks lol. Holidays and doing a startup has robbed me of all my time and energy :( Played today for the first time and boy was I rusty. Couldn't BH loop down the line to save my life :( I figured out that against the nasty FH pendulum serve that exits the BH side...
  16. When do you replace your table tennis shoes?

    Sometimes no more grip is a benefit in ultra grippy/sticky floors lol...

    imo, FH topspin flick is the weakest variant of the flicks. The dead ball flick (you can search 推挑 on youtube or douyin, plenty of tutorials) is usually the strongest variant for opponents to face because it can produce quite a LP like disgusting ball. There's no topspin to borrow - if they...
  18. WTT Champions Frankfurt 2023

    Existence of practice partners is a fact and part of the CNT culture, and it is precisely what makes them so strong - they're very well prepared against most styles. But I think it is not unfair, since there are highly limited spots for a lot of the main events for eg Olympics or WTTC. The lack...
  19. Who has the better at serving?

    Dima has much nastier placements and spin variations on his serves. At his peak he would destroy everyone with his BH sidetopspin short serve which cannot be pushed short, and he would just be waiting to powerloop the long returns.
  20. World #90 Iba Diaw loses to Unranked Female Opponent, Calls Cheating!

    Still a far cry from Lin Yun Ju vs Wang Chuqin lol... there's a reason why TT is an Olympic sport and hardbat ain't...
