  1. Hybrid recommendations

    they don't fix the problem, but if you don't want to fix anything and just want to play then they at least gift you with a bit of pace :P
  2. Hybrid recommendations

    i maybe think what matteroftime means: if the ball has no spin and speed you need to generate your own pace and if you used to using or borrowing the other persons pace and quality this could be challenging for some. i have some members in my club that hate to warm up with a basic drive and...
  3. WTT Champions Macao 2024, 9/9-15

    thanks a lot for that answer! :)
  4. WTT Champions Macao 2024, 9/9-15

    firstly it is 'she' and then no i didn't know, because i assumed that you meant having the advantage of growing up in a chinese training and knowledge environment and then moving to a different country and getting citizenship to make a living with sports. that is not the case with both players...
  5. How to read sidetop vs sideunderspin serve!?

    perfect comment! just be less rushed. let the ball bounce, there is mostly more time then you think for receiving and with that you also train your brain better even if you miss it :)

    i don’t get this? the other semi final is tawain vs germany
  7. Recommendation for, slightly slower, long lasting Rubbers

    it is slower and a bit harder, but you maybe will not feel that hardness because the topsheet is softer and just a different feeling on ball impact that feels really dwelly. for me it felt actually softer then G1. it is just sooo easy to open up against underspin, or produce any kind of...
  8. Recommendation for, slightly slower, long lasting Rubbers

    for me hybrid MK is the same as vega pro H. a bit faster but way less spin. still a high throw looping rubber (and durability seems really bad)
  9. Recommendation for, slightly slower, long lasting Rubbers

    vega x is more sensitiv to spin and really hard to play in blocking and pushing (for me at least). you always need to loop everything. vega pro h is a hybrid rubber that is way more spinny then vega pro, with less catapult and less dynamic, so really good for open up on backspin. in comparision...
  10. Recommendation for, slightly slower, long lasting Rubbers

    also ventus extra fit's perfectly to the way you described to play and would try that first before try something like nittaku-g1 (g-1 is not really a good rubber for forward strokes like smashing/hitting/block due to it's spin sensitivity and throw. it is a pure looping rubber)
  11. Recommendation for, slightly slower, long lasting Rubbers

    i like nittaku g-1 too. glayzer is easier to play, but has way less spin and is not supporting more powerful strokes. for me it is more like a beginners offensive rubber. you could also try vega pro, because here in germany it is also way cheaper and sometimes only cost 27€ and also last really...
  12. Difference in Loki Pro Rubbers

    i ended up boosting it with a thin layer, just because the rubber seamed to be an older one and was curled inwards after i removed the foil on the gluelayer. so the factory boosting effect must have been gone. the rubber didn't reacted as much as i thought, just a tiny curl, kinda like you have...
  13. Attacking float balls

    would say the same. keep it simple. what helped me was to do my stroke more compact. kind of like you do in a warm up. if you don't drive the ball and wanna loop it then try to really feel the ball on your rubber and override the spin, like you do with a quick loop on the backhand. if the ball...
  14. Difference in Loki Pro Rubbers

    yes it is a good rubber indeed and i highly recommend it but just has not enough power for forehand for me. it feels like a gap where the rubber just not support the stroke anymore. i felt the same with hybrid mk, but this had also not enough spin. vega asia H with a harder sponge has a...
  15. Difference in Loki Pro Rubbers

    thanks a lot! then i will try it with a thin layer. the sponge already feels really soft an nothing like the rxton pink that i bought for a friend even though they have the same hardness on the sheet
  16. Difference in Loki Pro Rubbers

    so i received the sheet of rxton 9 pro 39° and a sheet of bluegrip c2. i think i will decide between the two what i keep on playing on my forehand. the Rxton 9 i got for 20€ and Bluegrip is 40€. i am still playing with rxton 3 pro and it is nice and cheap but not dangerous enough in spin...
  17. San Francisco looking for training partner.

    haha this came in today and perfectly fitting. zhang jike loop kills his students with a tiny bat. really reminds me about the story i told by my coach that won every set against us with an iphone. people will be asking now: what cover did your coach use? can you send me link? :P maybe we...
  18. San Francisco looking for training partner.

    for me it's really not looking like it has anything to do with equipment. based on the video you are way less rushed, you prepare your serves and your way of receive serves better. you have a better strategy, placement and the right footwork for the next shot combined. this made you a better...
  19. Table Tennis Crisis

    just play point by point. think about how to setup a point that you can get your best shot in. take your service as an opportunity to lead into your best shot and NEVER as something you win a straight point with. when this is not working then think about why - what shot lead you to losing the...
  20. Difference in Loki Pro Rubbers

    for me and my game play (or stroke i have) i need either a grippy/tacky hard rubber that i can control the trajectory of and can pressure with spin or a more softer elastic rubber where the ball sinks in more and get easy speed. there is also a certain dwell that i feel either by a tacky...
