"With t05 it comes to a moment where you need to chose the spin or the speed. If you hit it harder after certain point the ball goes into the sponge too much and limits. Not the case with hurrciane 3." I like that description of the difference between Tenergy and H3.

The thing I found weird was that he was described as a spinner. But when I saw him play, he was basically a medium pacer in my eyes.

Derek Underwood? Like me, you must be over 60.

Look at the first bounce. There's a big clue there. First bounce says a lot

Craig Bryant should ask MaLong to stop copying his serve.

England has 30k hobby players I know that the OP is trolling but I'll bite. First of all, OP is probably talking more about England than UK as TT is tiny to non-existent in Wales and Scotland. I could list about 20 reasons but will focus primarily on player numbers. There are about 30k regular...

When you say that the Stiga is light, which one are talking about, Genesis or Mantra?

I've seen these videos before but I'm still amazed. Thanks for the reminders

Good to hear.

Yogi, your memory is short. XSF Yinhe balls are no more than passable, never very good. If it wasn't for the fact that we buy our balls online, I would return at least 2 balls in every 6pack. In fact if a more sensitive player than me were to check the balls, that average would probably be over...

ooooooooooaaaaaaah!

It's all semantics of course. I know many players with very relaxed, good stokes but not great technique. Having great technique, to me, indicates advanced TT play.

A roundness gauge perhaps? Wonder if this would work for a TT ball Or maybe you need to make a roundness gauge like this:

I agree, but he should have said 'good' or proper' technique rather than 'great'.

Many players and coaches often refer to the FH and BH sides of a blade. I think it comes from the fact that we tend to make the side of the blade with the brand-mark the FH side.

Funny, I think of him as a modern Euro style rather than traditional Chinese ph. The older PH tended to keep closer to the table in order to play a driver/hitter game. XX tends to a stand back and use big spinny loops Euro style. Yes he does step around a lot but who doesn't except for very top...

Liam for the win 11-6

TTfrenzy, look at the video again. Look at the umpire only. He's the one on your right facing the screen. The one with the scoreboard is the assistant umpire. Keep your eye on the umpire, when LJK hits the ball onto the table, the umpire immediately points to the table indicating an edge ball...

I had a slipped disc in early January so have not played since the start of the 2017. This has caused all sorts of problems as I play in 2 leagues. Real bummer as I know that it will be months before I will be free of pain.

Having a look again on my big screen, I now realise that the camera's point of view is from a really high angle, so the trajectory of the ball compared to the table is not clear. The only person that had a good view, other than the players, was the umpire. His decision was immediate which means...
