i got an Ice Cream AZXi with 91g lying around here and i could even sell it to you, if you were to decide you would want that one. I do play an Ice Cream AZXi in 86g currently and that is my second blade that i do not really need. I like it very much and it was not too much of a difference in...

The EL-S is quite bouncy, but the new EL-D is alleged to be less bouncy Gesendet von meinem SM-G998B mit Tapatalk

if you go for the TMXi better protect it, since splinters when removing rubbers can be an issue. Somehow this seems to be a thing with Xiom blades that i never had issues with using Nittaku blades.

yes, sure, but the very fact that he hits it from below means that it is not a flick (where you would hit it either from the back/side or the side/top), but rather a push. The movement before ball contact is irrelevant. Just imagine me preparing to swing a forhand loop and in the last minute...

as i already expected. He does start with a flick angle of his wrist and then turns the wrist totally so that he actually only does a slight backspin (if at all) and more sidespin push. https://imgur.com/a/uoaucxk Starting the movement as if it was a flick does not make it a flick if the...

That flick is pure sidespin and not underspin. I know he says that he will create backspin with it, but when he actually executed it you can see that his movement does not create backspin. Gesendet von meinem SM-G998B mit Tapatalk

can you please post the link to that video with exact timestamp ? the definition of flick is explicitly different from push. If you do a push motion and call it flick it does not become a flick ;)

The Pongfinity Sensei is a 7-ply wood and hence probably a little faster than the beginner 5 ply woods that beginners would play. I don't think you can go much wrong with buying it for him. He will have mad fun and the rubbers are good enough to play for beginners and intermediates. If he then...

i challenge you to show me a top spin push and a backspin flick. The pure definition of a push is to hit it from below and over the table. if you hit it from below and move the racket in the direction you would need to to create top spin (which would be moving the paddle to yourself) you would...

Didn't know Biden did have a side job.

to be honest, i do not know a single person (being a table tennis beginner) in germany that would even remotely think about buying table tennis equipment from AliExpress. They would much rather go to a table tennis shop to get consulted or check some reviews on amazon. That was pretty much my...

and how would a total beginner know which of the hundreds of 7ply woods are a decent ones? On top of that the G-1 is pretty hard for a beginner to play, so even if he had somebody like you to advise him he would end up with a pretty fast and unforgiving racket. I think part of what you pay is...

I own one but stripped the rubbers from it. From the hardness of the rubbers and the color of the sponge it could very will be an aurus select clone.The rubbers were decent enough to play with it as a beginner. The blade is a 7ply one so you would assume that this racket is not exclusively for...

Thank you for your opinion about the TMXi. It looks intriguing to me and i would like to know if you really think that the TMXi Pro (and non-pro if you have insights in that modell too) are better than the Xiom Ice Cream AZXi (which i currently use with 91g). I can hardly believe that it has...

It looks like you are trying to execute a slow drive with different angle to make it topspin, but I think it does not work that way. I am a beginner as well, but I made quite a good progress learning top spin, by not trying to hit the ball at all, but rather imagining an angled wall that is...

So I got a regular violin, a inner carbon violin and two Acoustics. From memory the violin and Acoustic where very similar and I did not need to change much switching between them. I recently switched between the violin inner carbon and the regular acoustic and noticed that the ball throw angle...

A flick is usually a drive or topspin ball played with a short motion over the table only using the arm and wirst and not the whole body. How would that fit with creating backspin? What you describe is a backspin push. Gesendet von meinem SM-G998B mit Tapatalk

I thought Nittaku was from 1920 or why do you not count them as table tennis brand ?

Great, let us know how it works out for you. Gesendet von meinem SM-G998B mit Tapatalk

There is this arm cast style bandage that you can wear to learn top spin. If you wear that in practice matches you basically can't reach for the ball, since the upper arm is fixed at an 45° angle on your shoulder. That will force you to use the legs to get into position. Gesendet von meinem...
