The ITTF website has all the rules for each year. No need to argue.

He means this is not the first time something like this has happened to him.

How do you know he is a spammer and a cheater though?

My guess is the former. That people didn't immediately smell an EM-rat after seeing that makes my head shake. All in the name of Chinese secrets.

Without any knowledge of why, I won't speculate too strongly but the issues we raised in light of many things he wrote and said were genuine ones and he had many videos that featured him criticizing people I am 100% sure were never asked for permission before he used their video. And of course...

Sounds like Giang is like 22-2300.

That has been Gauzy's advantage over Boll for a while now (failure to read his short serves) and I don't know why Boll can't fix it.

Here I agree only to the degree that what he is doing gives him advantages and that is far from clear. I have seen many mimic this stuff in the hope of copying Ma Long and I hardly understand what it does for them to be honest other than make them feel good, which counts for something I guess.

Big Dipper has a medium high throw angle as well.

I don't speak a word of Chinese but that sounds about right from my understanding. I have written a lot about it here and elsewhere (mytt and ooakforum), but I am just putting together some pieces with more confidence as it is not something that I am being guided through. I am almost at the...

Someone posted this video on mytt for a different reason but I have linked to a point in the video where a famous coach is looping backspin so you can see how he contacts the ball. youtu.be/NbNbgB08z-E?t=473

SchemeSC, don't start the stroke low vs topspin but from where I sit, that looks right. One of the keys to that stroke is that if the timing is right, you can swing pretty hard into the ball and still spin it because you are hitting it off center just by the nature of the stroke. You do have...

It's one way but not the only way. The contact point and swing trajectory can be achieved in a variety of ways. It's just that if you want to deal with heavy spin close to the table, you will just be frustrated by hitting balls long. Asgarali used to do what you are suggesting BTW. But as...

Because I want options when dealing with spin and counterspin usually let's you hit the ball harder with more consistency than counterhit. It's just harder. I already counter hit but you learn the really brain changing stuff when you counterspin.

I haven't given a TTD update in a while but I have maintained my same project which is the never ending goal and dream of being able to counter loops at the table with my own loops. I can do it but I surprise myself when I do it and that is not good enough. I don't surprise myself when I loop...

Boogar, do my eyes deceive me or are you kinda using the grip I showed you when you were here?

Primorac moans and grunts on every shot :p... RED CARD....

The idea of extra pinch at impact is something that you will naturally do if you are trying to make a whip pattern as you can't crack the whip without tightening the grip when you snap the forearm with a loose grip. For me the tightening is something that I don't think hard about and I just...

Ah, that helps explain why find this kind of stuff fascinating - you don't seem to have ever had a conversation with a higher level player about table tennis. Is your 2000 level estimate of your play from tournaments or is it from casual play?

I definitely agree - I have grips that mean I can play forehands with minimal body rotation but make my backhand feel bad. And the reverse of course, The grip I use now makes my backhand feel natural, but makes me more likely to play hooking loops with my forehand if I am rushed or just...
