  1. World Team Cup 2018

    Wow, the overrated Wong Chun Ting loses from 10-7 up in the second game. Call Kanak butter cause he is on a roll.
  2. World Team Cup 2018

    Someone probably pointed this out already but Amy and Lily were both trained in America, Lily especially got a huge part of her training from various coaches and the highest level *coach* at the ICC during her critical years was not Chinese (in the same way Kanak Jha was largely developed by a...
  3. How Can We Protect Female Players From Larry Nasser Types In Table Tennis?

    Child-sex Predators do wander into just about any thing that allows them to be close to kids. Table tennis doesn't make it easy for them to get kids, but I wouldn't be surprised if some one of them would not come up with some scheme to find the right opportunities. That's why I am not that...
  4. Advice please - Thinking about TIBHAR DRINKHALL ALLROUND CARBON CLASSIC Blade

    Not necessarily. But again remember that many people play with stuff that is not ideal for them. I read Schlager's response and his point was not to start players on equipment unsuitable for the looping game if the point was to make them loopers. It's hard to imagine that many people can't...

  6. Advice please - Thinking about TIBHAR DRINKHALL ALLROUND CARBON CLASSIC Blade

    Carl, This is where I disagree with you. 1.9(-2.0mm) is not a thin sponge. Some people hate feeling the wood on their shots, some people do not. But there are many players who if you gave them 1.9mm sponge without telling them it is 1.9mm sponge, they would play the same or even better and...
  7. How Can We Protect Female Players From Larry Nasser Types In Table Tennis?

    The question is silly, but in a sense, the answer is yes, it is true in all the 250 cases. Part of the reason you are asking the question the way you are to troll is that it was admitted by some parents to be true that they didn't listen to their children, one even committed suicide I hear...

    I have decided to switch to more Nigerian technique (which could mean a variety of things). In this case though I think it is clearer if you watch matches like this - it is probably already to some degree a part of me but I will add it more especially on the forehand. It's really funny how I...
  9. Are there any pro players that still use an all wood blade?

    I am not knowledgeable about graphics manipulation but the shot at 2:07 in the match against WCT is extremely clear and that is not a Viscaria.
  10. Are there any pro players that still use an all wood blade?

    Look at the video I posted and the date. He is more likely to be using a custom blade than a Viscaria unless he was messing around for the exhibition.
  11. Are there any pro players that still use an all wood blade?

    Everytime I point out (based on the Euro Champs equipment list from 2016) that Shibaev and Liventsov and many Russians use Korbel still, I get someone who corrects me that Shibaev uses a Viscaria. Maybe it is a Viscaria with a Korbel handle? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EFIdFSiq8vE Look at...

    I didn't play for a couple of weeks as I travelled out of the country. I got back and my gsme is like trash. My game was going down the tubes last year and I started taking anti inflammatories and was able to play again. I don't take them more than twice a week to avoid full dependency but...

    I will make a short video and show it to you on Monday or Sunday or whenever I go into the club. Basically, I will explain an element of this guy's loop. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aimx2M5G46w

    Doesn't mean it will work for anyone else. But it is basically similar to that grip I showed you when you came. I have figured out why it works on the backhand and I am trying to replicate it on the forehand to get a smaller but sharp forehand in cases where I just need to hit the ball down...

    I think I have figured out a way to simultaneously improve both my backhand and forehand technique.
  16. China Super League 2017

    The reason why he tries to take the all very early is open for others to speculate but IMO it all goes back to his movement issues as someone who has that much power should not be forced to take the ball so early if it is hurting his consistency. It really comes down to how your style allows...
