Kanak is a USA professional TT player. I am not a fan of him and seldom notice him until by chance I viewed this video. I am impressed and the video made me take notice. He is not a powerful all out attacking style player and his style is what I would called a controlled offensive player. His...

OK here goes, let me be the first to start a trend to talk something more engaging ( hopefully ) that is not focus on equipment. I got this observation while following the WTT Muscat, Oman event and I'd notice there are two very distinct tactics at play there, generalization not withstanding...

I I present to you all my best National Male TT player. He actually played against Ma Long in China Super League just before Covid strike and his score was 1-3 in Ma Long's favour. Imagine this, he won a set against THE GOAT. He is in his early twenties and is a Donic sponsored player. His...

Miwa Harimoto. The new and uprising sensation in the TT world. I am impressed with her winning performance. How would you describe her play-style? A. It is unique to her and her only. She may start a new trend. Others may follow. B. Her style is typical of Japanese Women TT professionals...

When you copy the best server of all time...Note: To complete the whole package, one must remain totally emotionless and have an icy cold stare. Total Waldner'esque moment.

Start watching from 0'50" to 1'20" clip. First off Adam is no pushover when it comes to TT. However to see Adam's return of LGY BH flying all over is a sight to behold. I noticed that LGY hit his BH really low as he squat really low to take his BH. NB: This is not how I am taught my BH but...

I know ERT does lurk here in this forum so I'll start a discussion here. It would be very nice if ERT could also participate in this discussion. The video above by Pingsunday showed a professional loop underspin ball a certain way. 1. I have seen Kim Taek Soo YT video teaching his amateur...

Dear coaches and trainers, This post is more targeted at you guys / gals. If you are one, please response. I first heard about this new trend a while ago but never paid any attention to it until very recently. The context as follows: 1. My coach is telling me to come closer and closer to the...

It has been three years since we have any competition going, no thanks to Covid. Prior to Covid I did not take TT really seriously. It is only after this Lockdown ease that I began to be a more competitive oriented player ( or at least this is what I hope to be in the future ). So, I am totally...

"Serve & receive contribute 50% of your game points. Some said one third." Ladies and gentlemen of this TT community, the above anecdotal statistic is what I gather from interacting with my circle of TT community, including here. It would appear to me a majority consensus do agree that serve &...

I am looper, FH dominant. I use European set up and love playing mid to far table loop a loop. My winning condition is powerful forehand loop while defending with BH ( but I am working on a more aggressive BH counter - work in progress ) I am having trouble with my club mates who all now know...

Greeting Komrad in TT, Recently I browsed the Yasaka webpage and I came to this term: Grip vs Spin. In the website: Raksa7 is listed as Spin focused whereas Rakza X is Grip focused. Can anyone tell me what does it mean? To me Grip create Spin and hence synonymous. Am I missing something here...

Hi good people of TTD, I have been using the Ariex GT 10mm One Ply Hinoki for a while and I am loving it and by golly! I have not EJ'ed for sometime already. My vendor who sold me the above blade approached me again recently and offered to make a custom 11mm One Ply shake-hand blade using the...

I wish to start a talking point. Let me start by giving a context. Last week during my coaching, I had a conversation and I showed my coach a random video of Ma Long's powerful BH, something like this:And being the fan-boy that I am, I was cooing how marvelous and wonderful the Chinese BH is and...

Not too long ago, I made a comment that BTY is only looking out for pro players and ignored us noobies club players. Guess what! In Mar 2022, they will launch a new bat targeted at noobie club players. Rejoice! Hail BTY! They do listen actually. And what rubber should go on it? None other than...

Its 12.12 and EJ symptom is acting up again. Initially I wanted to just buy a commercial TG Skyline 2 (2.1mm mid hard @ USD 12.00 ) to be used as FH on my Nittaku Acoustic. Then I saw a good deal at Lazada 12.12 for the Blue Sponge Provincial TG Skyline 2 that cost four times more than the...
