  1. Does anyone play with a torn rotator cuff?

    I dislocated my shoulder at the beginning of 2018 without realizing that's what I had done, and it was out for 3 weeks before I got it reduced and addressed - resulted in a partial tear as well. I basically took an entire year off of Table Tennis, gave it a ton of rest, and then spent a lot of...
  2. how comfortable are you with hard (53+) rubber on your backhand?

    Idk what it is, but I'm a soft rubber guy on that side and I preach it to players reaching for the pro grade stuff as much as I can. My backhand in open play or when I'm attacking is like my gold quality relative to the rest of my game. I like to think it's pretty dang sharp at least for my...
  3. Tibhar Hybrid MK review

    I used it through two sheets. My second sheet I took off before it ran out of life though. I know I haven't used it too long, but I am playing/practicing 5 times a week so it's hard to expect a rubber to last a long time. My only gripe with it is the same gripe I had with Rasanter - the topsheet...

    I think I've decided to go. If you go too we should hit some!
  5. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    Sorry to introduce a tangent - is it worth me making the trek to the L.A. Open this year? Since getting back into the sport I've learned that the midwest US tournament scene is pretty dead now, so I'm trying to make myself okay with just accepting that I'll have to travel farther for some...
  6. Dynaryz AGR / Hammond Z2 :Shrinkage

    just for some color, I've tested both rubbers and moved both of them to different blades and experienced zero issues with shrinkage. I've used a dynaryz rubber of some kind for the past three years, through both very casual play periods, and periods of 5x per week play. Never experienced any...
  7. Common Sense Rubbers

    I've definitely been fooling around with trying new rubber the last few weeks but I'm ready to just pick something and be done. Thanks NL!
  8. Common Sense Rubbers

    haha yeah! I am back in the sport after a long hiatus. Hoping to compete at America's Teams this year even. Had an affair with Disc Golf.
  9. Common Sense Rubbers

    i think Xiom Vega X is another one for this list. Tamer modern rubber that can do everything well.
  10. Tibhar Hybrid MK review

    bump on this. There's surprisingly little out there on this rubber. Due to my increase in playing frequency lately I started looking at rubbers that are a little more advanced. Went through some old favorites, as well as some of the newer stuff out there (never been a latest/greatest type of...
  11. Handicap League Format Suggestions

    Hard to say honestly. Part of why I am moving to a singles league is the inconsistent participation. So I'm moving to something that allows people to participate however often they want to. Previously in the teams league I tried, people would sign up and then not show up. Players who didn't sign...
  12. Why is Stratus Powerwood wider at the bottom?

    I remember using this blade for a while and it bothered me enough that I sanded/shaved it down to the same shape as the Xiom Offensive S. Liked it a lot more after that.
  13. Handicap League Format Suggestions

    Hey everyone! Basically cross posting with this and mytt. Trying to boost the game in my area a little more. I've experimented a couple times locally with some variation of a handicap league the past few years. Initially did a teams oriented thing, but after two seasons of that it became so...

    Well I still can't thank you enough for taking the time to do those breakdowns. I'll have to search for the BH loop one. thanks again.
  16. Kim Jung Hoon FH Loop Pointers

    It was the biggest bummer of my life when those videos were all taken down. There was so much gold, and your translations were an absolute godsend. Even though I don't know a lick of the language, I watch so much korean TT content and matches because there are a plethora of channels on youtube...
  17. What's happened to Ovtcharov's performance recently?

    I know it's already been said, but new parenthood will take anybody off their A game.
  18. Changes in Table Tennis

    I think the ITTF is completely out of touch at this point. They keep focus on making rule changes. But it's the age of internet and social media and video quality. If you want the sport to be attractive, invest into some sort of system that allows quality video broadcasting. People would...
  19. Regarding h3, and boosting

    For me, H3 boosted is pretty unbeatable. Nothing provides the combination of linearity over the table and in attack, but also the lethality at the top gears and bite when re-looping. However, boosting is a bit daunting when I have to do it every so often, and the inconsistency of sheets combined...
