  1. I think I unlocked the ultimate cheat code for Butterfly rubbers with Spring Sponge X

    I wouldn't be surprised if a similar QC process (or one step in such process) is done in advance by DHS when selecting provincial vs commercial vs national.
  2. Samson Dubina sexual assault case

    They did. Read the first paragraph carefully.

    I have tried it a few times. For me the real problem with my forehand is my arthritic lower body and overall joint pain which prevent me from using the body the way I would really like to. Using my legs to play forehand causes pain. The lack of rotation is not always a bad thing, it makes my...
  4. Samson Dubina sexual assault case

    Forget the law for a moment, just being alone with the minor is a Safesport violation. But again, we know he was found guilty of something that suggests harm, the details of the harm are open to some degree to the imagination.
  5. Samson Dubina sexual assault case

    Yes and in the eyes of many people, Dubina was better off with an assault charge than a secual imposition charge. I guess the law and the opinions of people are at odds here. And of course, smart people can decide whether parroting the degrees is all that matters. And without the details of...
  6. Samson Dubina sexual assault case

    Seems the AI is more open to speculation than you are. So if someone argues based on point 3 that the prosecution did not have the evidence to get sexual imposition, your response would be?
  7. Samson Dubina sexual assault case

    No, he is not pleading guilty to some aspect of the "original charge" - the original charge was sexual imposition and he was not found guilty of that and the charge he was found guilty of has zero sexual implications. He is pleading guilty to violating the law, but what aspect of his act/acts...
  8. Samson Dubina sexual assault case

    Yes, and my point is that a lot is left open to speculation. Unfortunately, what happens then is that when people speculate in directions others do not like, it becomes an issue. Hence the paper has to be technically correct as to what Dubina pleaded guilty to, people who ask what he is guilty...
  9. I am looking for that 'effortless forehand topspin mechanics' tip

    I think many of them start with a part of their foot off the ground. And to be honest, videotape doesn't conceptualize internal feeling. One can literally look like they have their heel on the ground but if you asked the player how he felt, he would say he was largely on the balls of his feet...
  10. Samson Dubina sexual assault case

    Sure and mine still stands too. What exactly is Dubina guilty of? What was the harm he caused if ot wasnt sexual in nature and for peoplle not focused on Dubina's personal integrity, is it true that he pleaded guilty to a more serious offense?
  11. I am looking for that 'effortless forehand topspin mechanics' tip

    The advice is usually to play more on the balls of your feet with your heels off the ground but these do not perfectly communicate all the subtleties. On your toes is definitely too extreme if taken as an absolute. And the foot definitely takes a lot of different positions on the floor in...

    Well, let the experts continue to tell us that we have no clue what we are talking about and they have the only correct understanding of legal issues.

    Not edited but here are some marches from the event on Sunday. https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL1xHYZmEaJtThhN4-RYDiBmbYOado6nS8&si=3QruJQC4cS8Nn9IC

    So I have played on Monday last week, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday and today. The first time i have plaued on seven straight days in years for sure. And almost immediately, I am seeing my level come back before my eyes. The movement is a huge part of it but just as...
  15. 2024 USA Table Tennis Nationals in Huntsville, Alabama!

    Couldn't make it, too much family stuff this year.
  16. Asian Youth Championships 2024

    So one of the Korean boys impressively beat the man child Ruibo Wen. Convincingly too. And it wasn't Junsung Oh, but one of the lefties.
  17. Samson Dubina sexual assault case

    A couple of things: none of us were at the proceedings (unless you were and are just saying you were not to protect some confidentiality). A lot of what you claim about the motives of the people and how things went down is plausible but is ultimately speculative. I am convinced by it, but the...
  18. Samson Dubina sexual assault case

    This is exactly the kind of post that is offensive - someone making a lot of noise about how ignorant other people are without addressing anything substantive. What about the "act" that Dubina performed made it harmful? Which act is he being convicted of? In fact, the question of whether he...
  19. Samson Dubina sexual assault case

    Yep, I was compliant as a coach/umpire a few years ago and will return to compliance shortly. It's part of the reason why looking at the whole thing, any accusation itself is hard to make stick if the accused took Safesport compliance seriously.
  20. Samson Dubina sexual assault case

    The thing is that with a plea deal, there is no new police report so to speak. We are all smart enough to read between the lines, but the problem is that the need to read between the lines will not help people who are just taking things mostly at face value. Though since I am going through...
