  2. US Ratings to UK

    There are < 1000 players on the official TTE senior ratings list. Where did you find all those players at 100?
  3. US Ratings to UK

    IMO, experienced coaches like yourself (or Eli Baraty, etc) can have a look at a player's match video or even just a warmup routine and make a reasonably accurate estimate about the players's level. So perhaps you could reach out to some coaches in Germany and ask what level your players might...
  4. US Ratings to UK

    Don't think my post says or implies that the USA ratings system is in any way broken ... I certainly don't think it is.
  5. US Ratings to UK

    All this is pointless. Your rating is the result of regular tournament play against a large selection of random opponents. How you do against against one or two specific players (or even a class of players) is irrelevant. So unless a large (and representative!, which the TTD team is the...

  11. “Sealing effects performance”…. Is there any proof?

  13. San Francisco looking for training partner.

    Absolutely, training is the key. And just to be clear, going up 200 rating points is a very impressive achievement, which only gets harder the further you go and also as one gets older, so I applaud the OP for getting there.
  14. San Francisco looking for training partner.

    IMO, it's to be expected. The higher you go the fewer opponents at that level and higher, so the opportunities to increase your points are rarer. Here in England, the real skill difference between 800 and 1000 is less than between 1000 and 1200 let alone 1200 and 1400, and so on ...
  15. San Francisco looking for training partner.

    The funniest thing about this thread is this obsession with the number 2000 amongst players from USA. Noticed it first when I joined mytt 15 years ago and has not changed a bit since then. Here in England, for example, achieving a 1000+ rating in senior men would mean you're a band 3 or higher...

  18. Equipment weaknesses and how to exploit them

    While checking your opponent's equipment before the match is certainly worthwhile (see #2 in http://www.tabletenniscoaching.com/node/3584), you should always play the opponent in front of you and not his equipment. Anything else can cost you dearly ...
