  1. T2 Diamond 2019 | Malaysia

    Her performance in the recent EU games was much less commandeering than I expected. I'm also interested to see if she's managed to bend the curve back up again.

    Due to injury, no less. May he find swift and most importantly full recovery!
  3. problems with technique (or new rubbers??)

    I looked hard and did find a few forum posts here and there discussing Fastarcs of that thickness, but no retailer offering anything outside 1.8 and 2.0 thickness. Perhaps it is available somewhere that has classic defenders that also know Nittaku exists. Over here, a classic defender below 70...
  4. How to fix the Lens on Hurricane Hao?

    That clicky sound may also be a partial wood fracture. Does the blade still feel the same?
  5. How to fix the Lens on Hurricane Hao?

    Do you actually feel the lens sitting loose? Can you wiggle it about, has it sunk in where it shouldn't be? If that's the case, you might be able to get it in place again using a little suction cup (ie a toy arrow). You'll still have to fix it in place, though. A bit of glue might do that...
  6. Rubber advice

    I happened to glue it (GA8-50 at 2.1mm) on a few days ago. Coming from rubbers like Rozena, Tenergy 05, Nanoflex FT48 I wouldn't say it has a big arc. Spin levels on serves and in the short game are very high. I haven't found these yet when looping. Looping with thin contact (brush loop...

    Yes, this is the only thing prominent in my mind whenever she plays. Clad in shame.

    KBO is the predicament of all mankind, not just TT pros.

    Moving in to pace it up by going direct off the bounce is one of the main things in my weaponry. I seems to be working well, although in the few hours I've played with it on my BH I haven't dealt with heavy spinners so far. It seems to suiting Mima Ito quite well for exactly this, so I'd give...

    Yes, I concur with that. G-1 reminded me immediately of T05. A bit harder, a bit duller in passive play, a bit more zesty in the fast & furious hits, maybe a tad less of a bite when spinning it — but these are nuances, it really feels akin. I like the firmness of G-1 so far. Then again, I also...

    Interesting. I glued Fastarc-G1/1.8mm on my BH yesterday, replacing Rozena/2.1. G1 is less boring than Rozena, it's surprisingly zesty and at 1.8mm it adds an amount of directness that I find pleasant. I didn't have to change much, it felt right at home, with my BH flicks and passive play...

    A time limit and increasing suspense as the hands of the clock move towards "sudden death" type games.

    You're supposed to supply an eleborate clair-obscure fineline drawing with that question.
  14. Australian Open 2019 [Platinum]

    That’s up to you. But you do own your accusation of foul play against two respected players, based in nothing but visible signs of strain or exhaustion. You own that. You either back it up with substantial evidence or back off and bow out. Gracefully, if you can manage.

    Show proof or apologize.
  16. Did TTNPP went rouge?

    I have an old 1st gen carbon frame, ‘carbon hit’. Prolly 100+g, and it hits like a ton o bricks. It may even outgun the legendary Sk9c. Those who want it, needs it, cant live without it gimme a call.

    Is that a little streak of cruelty there or a loving tease? Not sure. Today Ishikawa commanded great respect. I bow my head.

    I repeat my confession of being a TRUE BELIEVER of the CHURCH of ITO. The FAITH of the HOLY ALLIANCE of VIGOUR and UNPREDICTABILITY.
  19. Australian Open 2019 [Platinum]

    For me, the significant break of momentum is that forfeit in 2017’s China Open, an act of protest in solidarity with LGL’s demotion and KLH’s punishment after some muddy allegations. It just hasn’t been the same since. And let’s face it, how could they sleep safely, how could they believe all...
