  1. German Open 2018

    Yeah, I should have! Karlsson - Akkuzu 4-1. Oh, well.
  2. German Open 2018

    I didn't dare make the joke...
  3. China National Team Closed Training - WTTTC 2018

    Sorry, I didn't mean to sound rude and this topic could get ouf of hand very quickly. Let's enjoy TT.
  4. German Open 2018

    Curious to see the outcome of Mattias Karlsson - Can Akkuzu this afternoon. Akkuzu had a good streak at the end of last year (Ouaiche, Lebesson and Pitchford within a few weeks) and his match against Maximilano Huergo yesterday was murder. Go Can!
  5. Maze Blade required

    Ahah yeah, regardless of the blade you are looking for, this article could do that to anyone. Hope you can find just the one.
  6. Maze Blade required

    Not my kind of blade but the Freitas is a bit thicker, and apparently noticeably faster than M.Maze. https://ttgearlab.com/2017/05/16/tibhar-vs-unlimited-vs-butterfly-freitas-alc-comparison/ Edit. Comments below article suggest not all Maze are the same (I should stick to what I know, I was...
  7. German Open 2018

    Harsh. Darn that body language hurts.
  8. It's Official | Timo Boll is the New World Number 1!

    I'm starting to understand what people mean about ITTF's articles.
  9. Ask Damien Éloi a question on TTD!

    Hi Damien, it's an honour to have you here! So many questions to ask... You have had and keep having an amazingly long career as a professional player... What is your secret? Do you have any specific approach in order to keep fresh both physically and in terms of motivation? Also, would you...
  10. Progression from Vega Pro

    Has anyone tried TSP Regalis (either one)? When looking for new stuff I got interested in these, but they haven't caught on all that much. I'm wondering if that's just because this is the case for most TSP stuff (outside of Japan), as early reviews seemed promising. Especially on the linearity...
  11. Around the bottle challenge!

    Tssshhhhhhhoooooooooooooooooo-llleeeeeeeeyy
  12. Qatar Open 2018

    Thanks for the link. Levallois SC is the stuff of legends back in France. I think this is the way to do it (Ochsenhausen), as well as getting even more international players in the elite national leagues. That "training against one another" basically happens on match day and, as it's been...
  13. Tacky rubber just because :)

    Aye, really I was just making a reference to the song in your signature. I'm sure you're right but I've never come across a single person playing tacky rubbers in my years of playing in France (I hear it's catching up slowly, but then again I'm from the countryside - these will come about by the...
  14. Qatar Open 2018

    Thanks, very clear now.
  15. Qatar Open 2018

    What do you (does he) mean, "two-straight mindset"?
  16. Tacky rubber just because :)

    Think I won't curse, I'll break down and say... ;) (sorry, I can't comment on tacky rubbers - remove the post if you have to, this was just tempting)
  17. Language on ITTF site

    Imagine the number of threads similar to this one, the day one of these languages gets chosen over the others (and even if you were to do all three... way to alienate all the rest)! Also, it's becoming part of TT folklore at this point and I wouldn't want it any different, but if ITTV...
  18. Language on ITTF site

    You could have been born in France... Think about it!! I love flowery language though. And yes, Indian English from older educated people can be some of the best ("rascally business" from a guy who meant "taking a d*mp in the woods" still gets me after many years). I hope this doesn't come...
