  1. Talk about live legends: Vladimir Samsonov, Timo Boll and Jan Ove Waldner

    ZJK was born with a fracture in one side of his sacrum, and then he fractured the other side from all the intensive training his dad put him through since childhood. If one turns to 海外兵團, or overseas legion(the Chinese term dedicated to the former CNT players representing other associations, at...

  2. Best Brand Over-all?

    Continuing from the previous post... In terms of all-wood blades, Stiga still has the edge for shakehand, and Yasaka for penhold. In terms of composite blades, Butterfly is king of the hill around the world, and DHS in China in recent years. Demand for Viscaria must be so high for them to...

  6. How can a harder rubber be slower than a soft one?

    Note the extra word "oddball", typical anti rubber from Butterfly and Nittaku should behave more like high performance rubber.

  8. How can a harder rubber be slower than a soft one?

    Argh! Not this crap again. COR, speed after impact(my bad, velocity after collision, I insist), ratio of tangential COR to normal COR(throw angle, FFS), paddles don't generate energy unless you burn 'em and on and on. *bleep* me. This is disappointing. Hard-headed engineer has shown little...

  9. How can a harder rubber be slower than a soft one?

    Indicating or including elasticity won't really help. Hard-headed engineer should've known better before throwing that term around when he kept beating the dead horse for years with that oddball anti rubber. Butterfly Super Anti has the softest sponge at 20 degrees, of all rubbers on offer...

  10. Sup. What's the difference between Hexer Grip and the Rasanter series?

    The Rasanter series is actually catered to players from "middle level" to "middle to high level" to "high level" to "high to pro level" to "ultimate pro". It's even stated on the package. The design concepts had been given by Andro Japan in a different thread some time before the OP started...

  11. Japan Women's Race to Tokyo 2020 Singles

    Remember the Japanese blogger kittyoyaji that I quoted last year? In her recent entries, she shows her anger over Hayata's injury. http://kittyoyaji.blog.fc2.com/blog-entry-1503.html Hayata should think deeply why only her breaks down every year...

  13. Japan Women's Race to Tokyo 2020 Singles

    Took me a good while to dig up past articles. Yes, she has no chance if they go by the book. http://www.jtta.or.jp/Portals/0/images/player/selection/2018/20180922_2020oiympic_tokyo.pdf But if we look back, then things are not as cut and dry, despite similar wording in past selection...

  16. Best Brand Over-all?

    In terms of "most honorable", Yasaka. TSP is a close 2nd. http://mytabletennis.net/Forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=80550&PID=1014724&title=which-is-the-most-honourable-brand#1014724 In terms of "longest lasting", many brands that source almost exclusively from ESN are way down the list. Not just...

  17. Japan Women's Race to Tokyo 2020 Singles

    Yes, they're all keeping a close watch here. In essence, there are 3 tiers of contest going on here - Olympic seeding, reserve player, and WTTC 2021.

  18. Japan Women's Race to Tokyo 2020 Singles

    That's what I thought, until I compared with what she did last year. It tells me she still wants to compete for the reserve player. Kato and Morita(who beat Hayata in the T.League) were the only JNT players who signed up for Spanish Open(Challenge) last year. Her other teammates all signed up...

  20. Japan Women's Race to Tokyo 2020 Singles

    Apparently, her plan is to make the top 4 on the July Olympic ranking. FTW is in that place right now. My idol wants to knock her off, but CIC is on her tail as well, so it's gonna be a 3-way contest. https://www.ittf.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/Women-Singles-OR-2020.02.pdf
