  1. Kong Linghui being sued?!

    In the US, coaches and players who bet on sports are in big trouble, but my guess is that KLH likes poker and stuff like that. Anyway, toast now.
  2. Kong Linghui suspended as head coach of Chinese women's team!

    Remember the time he crashed his Porsche with two women inside? Dude lives life, that's for sure.
  3. WTTC 2017 VLOG #1 - Tour Of Arena!

    Fantastic. See you there, Dan.
  4. Ask Petr Korbel a question!

    What would be his best advice for how serious middle aged players should train. How to improve without sustaining injuries?
  5. Everything you need to know: ITTF Presidency 2017!

    Funny. Next Level wrote those exact same words. Exact. Only a couple weeks ago It is still true. By the way, a poster named MyNamenotbob at OOAK Forum has a lot of interesting stuff about Weikert claiming Sharara supports Saive and what it means. Those two aren't BFFs anymore, although it...
  6. Plastic ball vs Celluloid ball rubber wear..

    Being pedantic is just another word for being correct. Thanks for the correction.
  7. Plastic ball vs Celluloid ball rubber wear..

    Yes. Most celluloid balls were 2.66 g or so and pretty much all were less than 2.70 -- certainly any of the ones ever used in tournaments. A lot of 40+ balls are 2.73 to 2.76. The DHS 40+ balls that first came out (the ones made of celluose acetate) were 2.78! The lightest 40+ ball is the...
  8. Plastic ball vs Celluloid ball rubber wear..

    I can't tell because Karis M simply seems to not wear at all. It is weird. It looked like cheap bad rubber when I first glued it on (the look is deceiving), but it seems to have simply changed at all since early January. MX-P or T05 would be in bad shape by now.
  9. Jun Mizutani and Samsonov Training - Russian League 2017

    In that video it seems like they are missing a lot. They don't seem like they are training very hard yet.
  10. Plastic ball vs Celluloid ball rubber wear..

    The spin per se can be explained by the greater size and weight of 40+ balls. These new balls all have more inertia, so you won't get the same angular momentum on the ball, all other things being equal. I think different plastic balls do have differences in surface roughness that affect how...
  11. Viscaria blade

    This stuff or something like it. The kind of thing Marge Simpson or the Church Lady would use. http://www.cvs.com/shop/beauty/hair-care/styling/tresemme-tres-two-extra-hold-aerosol-hairspray-prodid-1013554
  12. Viscaria blade

    I actually play with mine, but I bought it used before the mania. I only paid $180, which at the time I thought was crazy but what the hell, it was what I was looking for and I got really really lucky on that blade.
  13. Removing glue from rubber topsheet?

    Only if you stock commercial provincial and national versions.
  14. Removing glue from rubber topsheet?

    Which is why they are good for this job too. You can also use them to trim carpets or for cheap cosmetic surgery.
  15. Kenta matsudaira alc

    I use a Viscaria myself, for ten years now. I like their blades. But you asked a question and I answered it (why a Matsudaira blade costs more than a Viscaria or a TB-ALC).
  16. Kenta matsudaira alc

    Butterfly always seems to charge more for blades released more recently. It is a maketing strategy and they have done it for many years. It is not based on manufacturing costs. Almost certainly all their ALC blades are made at the same place and the handle caps are machine made. Also the...
  17. Removing glue from rubber topsheet?

    I cut rubber with these after it is attachrd. Always comes out perfect. You an get them online or at Home Depot. They are sharp...
  18. Serials system on Butterfly blades

    I have no experience with the JM sZLC. My experience is that there was something about Viscaria blades with an H or and I date of manufacture that nearly every one of them from those productions runs that I ever got to hit with was really good. This is a sample size of about six blades, not...
  19. Attending WTTC-2017 Dusseldorf

    Ok My TTD Brothers. I have made flight reservations. Hotel reservations. Car rental reservations. Bought tickets to the event. I am ready to go. (I only made hotel reservations for part of the time though, because I need to spend some time in nearby Cologne and also in case a trip to...
  20. Dhs ABS balls

    Yourock is right on both counts. Nittaku and DHS have collaborted for decades. The Nittaku cellu,oid ball made in China was a rebranded DHS.
