I thought you were a non-believer?

In this case it was because I was going to lodge the exact same objection and decided ir wasn't worth jt. Sometimes I think I am insane whern I read certain things until I see that I am not the only one. Maybe it is social conditioning or something. But Victor is a good guy, he can handle it...

The counterargument will.be based on "throw angle" and linearity, and maybe price. But he thinks G09c is usable by amateurs so I dunno...

No tricks, it is just that consistent heavy backspin is a different tempo that you need practice against to get used to. You also have to read the ball trajectory and have strokes that enable you to stay in the rally when you have the risk of hitting long so you can wait until you get a ball...

Yuka wins while dropping only one game throughout the tournament at deuce in the semis. European juniors need to do better vs choppers.

You seem to have almost passed that threshold that people can no longer tell at what age you learned, except maybe you are still more physically restrained than people who learned athletically young are, but that might change in a different drill.

Vs Wei Shihao in a handicap match.

Yeah. But my counter to that is that I don't think admittedly improving players should be relying on the marginal effects of top end rubbers to get their standard results. That should be reserved for later stages in TT development in my humble opinion. Of course, it is my opinion.

What a player says about G09c tells you a lot about what they think a good rubber should do. I understand the idea that it sucks (the balls are not as threatening as Dignics 09c) but this is wrong (there are a lot of control elements that offset this especially in the short and blocking game if...

Rassenfosse playing well. Craig Bryant stocks rising....

Annett. Annette!

The Spinsight analysis is true from a physics standpoint, but it misses some of the practical issues involved. That he can get a brushy loop at 130 rps is impressive (though probably against backspin, whichI haven't tried), but the advantage of spinny loops is precisely that they don't have...

Haha... Luka Magic!

Didn't realize there was another Japanese in the draw until I saw Omoda lol... seems like it's a matchup problem...

surprising results: Rassenfosse 3-0 Bertelsmeier Zeljko 3-0 Mengel The margins are as surprising to me as the results.

@M51 , every time I watch Zeljko now, I cannot forget our last conversation. I am now rooting for his redemption arc... hope I don't jinx him...

Thanks. The main reason I ask is that the options one has for playing stronger opponents tend to narrow as the speed and spin of the game increases. So it is always important to put style in context. People see my game and call it extremely aggressive. But they don't realize it is really...

Much more interesting than whether Yuka will win this Women's Singles Title is whether she will drop a game to anyone in the event lol.

What is your estimated German TTR/USATT broadly? Trying to put your post in context as well as separate the issues of playing style and strategic/tactical mindset?

Zyre is spinny, but it is more spinny forward than spinny high arc on many shots. As an old.man I used to hit with said, everyone uses spin including the short pips players. So you have to understand ehat people are saying when thry talk about you not being a spin player.
