Before I retire to bed today, these are my parting thoughts: 1. I heard some who said to me, Gozo, why go and play when you have zero chance of winning? It is a waste of time ... bla bla bla... yadda yadda yadda.... 2. To these detractors, my view as follows: In this tournament, the orgainizer...

I recall an old coach once told me; us amateur only need push, block and drive skill. Leave the bananas, strawberry tutti-fruities, power loop, loop kill to the professionals. But then he is old skool coach.

My MS opponent: twenty years younger than I am, currently a full-time Table-Tennis coach and formerly represented Malaysia in International competition.

Manage to bump into Ms Alice Chang, Malaysia Top Woman Player ( WR #170 )

Not, because in one team only one National Player allowed. He is amateur player.

Javern vs Coach Hoang Javern & Hoang are both Malaysia and Vietnam National Level player

https://www.tabletenniscoach.me.uk/what-is-the-difference-between-topspin-and-loop-in-table-tennis/ This is Sensei Tom Loziak's view on loop vs drive. See if his view matches yours or not. Mark V should work. I used Butterfly Flextra and it worked wonderfully as a looping rubber. However...

Elderly players need to use elderly compatible equipment, don't be a hero and use product designed for 19 year old elite / collegiate athletes.

I wanted to copy Ma Long, I failed. I wanted to copy FZD, I failed. I wanted to copy Aruna, I failed. I wanted to copy Jang Woojin, I failed. I wanted to copy Tomokazu, I failed. In the end, the only FH I can do is Gozo(tm) style. Sighing in dejection.

Don't know what you mean but if you can post a video of your FH training, perhaps we can get an insight to what you mean?

@longle , I showed the above posters to my mates and now there are seven more person shitting in their pants. To have a promotional posters before a tourney is just.... scary.

not more than three sessions of three hours per week or else my knees, ankles, calf, waist, shoulder muscles will go on mandatory union strike.

Maybe I'll just be the water boy on that day...

shitting in my pants coz my its my first international level tourney.

Over the table spin. I am thinking out loud, perhaps if one were to use a tacky / hybrid rubber, it would be easier to BH spin short / over the table ball.
