I've taken so many 1-to-1 lesson with coaches and I still suck :-/ but it would probably be way worse if i hadn't made all those efforts

been playing again since the beginning of the month

sorry yoass i hope it will get better as for me i saw the doc for my knee, it seems its only an inflammation, so its not that bad (yet). i was relieved and saw my coach on Friday, but it was too adventurous. My knee was too uncomfortable to be able to play correctly so i spent most of the...

i would have loved to work on this

usually said ball is very difficult to play for the opponent !!!

Simon kept his best shot for matchpoint ! he didn't like what Dan did to him on his 2nd serve....

great video, great coach !

good idea

last wednesday i felt pain in my right knee while i was jogging. Today i didn't feel pain so i went to the TT club but quickly i could feel it again. I avoided moving a lot, but still I felt it was there. Towards the end of the session we were playing some matches, and it started to get worse...

There is a top veteran 70yo+ player competing in my local league. IIRC He told us he was an all-Japan semifinalist. He's playing a blocking game with LP, he might even be a J-pen, i can't remember. His ball trajectories were so awkward and balls so flat and plunging quickly, horrible to play...

yet another TT YouTube Channel in Japan, but its the one from my coach OYA: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lQRO3eMWwak This video is so him...He's a joyful person and sweats and chooos whoever he is playing with ! Kenta Matsudaira and Maharu Yoshimura have also started their channel - a...

Last Tuesday, it was the first time since the reopen where it was a slot for all registered teams to train. Lots of people. Obviously everyone wanted to play again. Some of the elder players showed up with 3D printed masks, else it almost seemed like business as usual. There were some new rules...

@skysowers very nice drilling, very consistent, and smooth, no transition problem, you cover well the table. i think you can try going for the next step, but trying to play a bit faster or more power. i suggest you try to shorten the strokes and find ways to add more spin: wrist, fingers, a...

Today i had a 2 hour session with coach OYA, the first with him in many months, and the 4th time i played since the reopen. I was very happy to be able to match him at times in BH rallies. Definitely the shot quality has gotten much better with Dignics80. As soon as i have a good contact and...

what can make TT more popular long term? unfortunately I think its about money. a think a good idea is to find bigger sponsors, and spend the money giving tables and bats to schools. Thats how you get kids to try and like the sport. it would help very much if the school has a coach of course

sorry i just watched today the video; I saw it was 1hour long and i didn't have time to spend 1 hour for that. its nice to hear Dan and Matt, especially to know a little more again about Dan. Regarding what do with an unlimited TT budget, i would have given another answer, perhaps a techie...

Forget about Dignics or Tenergy this ---old--- rubber will make you invincible !! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tp87AG_ZjhY

is Pitchford having fun with his Japanese teammates at TT Saitama ? does he spend a little of his time in Japan outside the TT hall ? can his Japanese team mates speak English ? ( i know Sakamoto speaks English)

who's the 4th guy ?

Finally !! After nearly 4 months without playing (apart from a few sessions on an outdoor table which wasn't even the proper size), I had a real knock with my teammate E. for 2 hours. We were both far from our best. But i'm quite happy with the result given the circumstances. Actually in drills...
