  1. German Open 2017

    She was never down 1-3.
  2. German Open 2017

    Monteiro beat Ovtcharov. Aruna took Dima to 7 games. If Majoros plays like he has so far, he has chance.
  3. German Open 2017

    When someone ranked 220 in the world beats Aruna, you know it is a depressing day for me, especially when I couldn't see the match... Then I find out he is only 20 years old and had beaten some good players (Groth) before, and he goes on to beat Monteiro in impressive style (I love his close to...
  4. German Open 2017

    I know you love China, but Monteiro ITTF ranking is 51 not 20. Thanks.
  5. The New World Ranking System Explained - January 2018!

    I am not sure about the points per tournament, but I think this new ranking system is a move in the right direction *if* it gives the Tour a better product and encourages more sponsorship with better players playing more often. I think that over rewarding participation may hurt the quality of...
  6. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    Here is my match against my buddy - he has improved and come down a bit because he doesn't play as much because of his son and our club situation - my strokes have improved but my play has come down because of our club and my injuries. We used to play a lot at the old club but since we moved...
  7. Cornilleau Simon Gauzy Quest Blade Review!

    What a creative player!
  8. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    Stop right there - he won the match!
  9. Gauzy, Pitchford, Calderano, Kallberg - Who will be the most successful?

    I think you are underestimating Gauzy who is only 23 - peaking at 23 is a bit much, especially since he has been French champion and almost European champion. And even if it is his best ever ranking, top 10 is still a lot - there is no guarantee that ZJK would beat him head to head today.
  10. Gauzy, Pitchford, Calderano, Kallberg - Who will be the most successful?

    Gauzy has had a steady trajectory and history of junior and senior achievement. He is creative with his game so he will keep on trying things.
  11. Gauzy, Pitchford, Calderano, Kallberg - Who will be the most successful?

    This characterisation of their games is ridiculous. That said, my vote is for Gauzy. He is creative.
  12. Rubber question

    All those rubbers are slightly faster and just as grippy. Slightly lower arc but still very spinny.
  13. Rubber question

    It depends on what about Baracuda you like or do not like. If you just want a basically spinny rubber from the same generation, I think Joola Explode, Tibhar Genius and Andro Hexer are all lighter in that order (lightest to heaviest). Big Slam is lighter but significantly softer.
  14. What handle type do you use

    I have very large hands and I have never found this to be the case. The issue is what is their grip?
  15. Killer Spin upgrade

    I found MAX too heavy but 2.0 didn't feel much lighter. I would still start with 2.0 though. Cheers.
  16. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    DerEchte gave her the Rambo Loopah technique. Heavy topspin no pace no spin pushes in your face. And she was like - why should I be losing to someone with a belly like that - she didn't see the Rambo Loopah gunz and thighz from all those years in the Army...
  17. Suggestions for Viscaria replacement

    The Timo ZLC has been rated as slower than the ZJK ALC, Timo ALC and Viscaria by Butterfly. This is also what a 2200 junior at my club felt (he uses the ZJK ALC now). But a lot of this is above my head. I will look closer at the details of the Timo ZLC and see whether I can make sense of the...
  18. New DHS 40+ Ball - TTNPP (Is it fake or is it real?)

    All the balls I use these days are fine. Nothing to complain about anymore.
