  1. Having trouble achieving fluidity in easy drills with friend

    Yes, but the problem in part is that the consistency of the coach deceives the student a little about what is really going on (our OP is a case in point). That you could take something from practice to matches so quickly is awesome. For me, the process can take up to 6 months or a year at...

  2. NDH Looping with new Garaydia ZLC

    Not at all. Thanks for the kind words. IT would be interesting to see how you play a point with that kind of power and how you fit that in with your backhand. Do you loop on the backhand side?

  4. Having trouble achieving fluidity in easy drills with friend

    We have a coach like that in my club. The problem IMO is that it is not as important to look good as to learn to adjust to the ball after a while. Spin reading as well as ball trajectory calculation is a critical skill in TT. I am okay though with coaches making their students look good in...

  5. NDH Looping with new Garaydia ZLC

    I am 6 ft 1 and I can get nothing close to as low as you do. That you can control such rocket launchers is truly amazing.

  6. Against spin vs with spin.

    In general, dummy looping is one of those things that just falls under spin variation. I would be hard pressed to find a top player who uses it more than once a match a tournament. It's much easier to just put spin on the ball in varying quantities to annoying places on the table and let the...

    I agree except for going to the sides. The elbow is far better.

  9. Omega V Asia

    5 out of 5 rating for Omega V Asia Fantastic rubber - supports all looping styles - the soft topsheet allows for heavy spin on slow loops and great arc as well. The hard sponge allows for hard drive loops. You can be extremely consistent looping with this rubber no matter your looping style...

  10. Ask Timo Boll a question on the TTD podcast!

    You have a fairly unique looping technique with lots of use of the wrist - how did you develop/evolve it? You said in a recent interview that your rubbers are available to everyone. Is this really true? Some people say that pro rubbers are sent by the manufacturer in batches and hand picked...

  11. "Feel of ball", affected by thickness of plies/quality management or am Im Crazy?

    My personal advice to you is to learn to loop in a variety of ways. Hitting through the ball is especially helpful when countering topspin from near to mid distance. As you get better too, you need to learn to hit through the ball sometimes to counter the levels of spin being put on the ball.

    You mean one of these guys here that people say are clearly over 2000? I have actually beaten both players once each in tournament play, though I have lost quite a few times to both a well.

    Kukamonga is just attempting humor. Carl and archosaurus already know how I feel about such posters so I am loath to repeat myself but in the end, it would be nice to see the beginners in Burkina Faso so I can tell the beginners in Nigeria how terrible they are.

    Review by 'NextLevel' on item 'Omega V Asia'

    Fantastic rubber - supports all looping styles - the soft topsheet allows for heavy spin on slow loops and great arc as well. The hard sponge allows for hard drive loops. You can be extremely consistent looping with this rubber no matter your looping style. The linear speed is not super high...

    The biggest challenge is not match play but training. You can't get the reps your body needs to adapt. And it hurts more with less adrenalin.

    Fine. And let's also remember that I will not show you the same respect I showed a player whose highest TTR was closer to 2200-2400. The kid is about 1700-1800 TTR.

    I agree, NDH. I am not really saying that people are wrong. It's just that some of them are pretending that they never have bad matches that are similar to what I initially posted or that they understand table tennis in this special way that means that there aren't exceptions to general table...

    Okay. There is nothing sensitive - I am stating facts. I have posted 4 videos and it seems that people can't read between the lines. Based on the first set of this match, what would you rate me as?

    Xylit, I don't disagree with your analysis, but my opponent is using short pips and I have played enough with my issues to develop work arounds but I play at a certain level. IT may not be 1700TTR, but it is pretty close, and people don't just walk over me by making me move. Well, let me show...

    That's fine. It all depends on who you play with. But I am Nigerian and I know we play at a higher standard than Burkina Faso and I don't think anyone in Nigeria has ever called me a beginner. You have to realize that when playing someone who is 200 pts below you, the truth is that you can...
