http://www.ittf.com/2017/01/11/outstanding-year-now-looking-forward-even-progress/ It seems ITTF will do some nice things in the future. No stupid rule changes, but Chinese coaches around the world, new angles to watch competitions, new ranking (I hope something like in the USA).

Let Fortuna to choose the groups!

Niwa's taste must be unique amongst pros. He played with T25 in the past, now a blade with 4 layer ALC!?! I can't read it (yet, next year in the university I'll learn japanese), but it seems 4 ALC for me.

I would suggest you to buy MAX thickness, but something not too fast and easily controllable. Some will say that's too thick for developing. With 1.9-2.0 sponge thickness you can't go wrong. EDIT: Now I see Tony said to avoid the Max.If you are a beginner stop there and follow Tony. He is an...

This is something what I also can't understand. If I remember correctly, there isn't too much tennis team event. Even tennis team world cup is closed now. In table tennis team events are equally important as singles. Maybe because there is less money in TT and without the help of national...

Hi, there is just another 'pls help me decide' thread. I'm playing with MX-P on BH but now I am thinking on a change. First I want to say: I will stay with MX-P, as it's a great rubber, unless I find something what sounds perfect for me. The reason for the change is that I play very...

T64 and T-FX rubbers work better with stiff composite blades. I found them a little mushy on softer all wood ones and flexy blades can make them unpredictable a little bit.

Even if you change the blade, please try it Hurricane, you might like it.

Change the rubber, not the blade! If you feel the BH side good, first try it with Hurricane. Viscaria is an excellent blade, don't throw out money on the window!

Okay, I didn't see that it's a Rakza and Yan An said to use Rakza X as well. But I wanna show you something: I increased the saturation of the image and the sponge's color changed to strong orange. If it's just the lighting, the color of the wood should change also: That's why I wrote that...

I could hit just a few with the two colored ball. As I remembered: you can see the difference between spinny and dead balls and even slightly spinned ones, but when it's getting spin...you can't see better the direction of the spin. At least I couldn't feel real difference compared to a simply...

Maybe Stiga releases soon a real replacement for Tenergies. I mean something that feels like one, not just plays. Probably just a daydream, but who knows...

Kenta Matsudaira is my no.1. But I call lots of players 'one of my favourite'.

I agree that LJK adapted better. ML didn't adapted, used the same services, played passively. However I still don't think that the new ball made the difference. I made a black-white one, will try tomorrow after training. And the second set is an interesting thing what you can see quite often...

In that match ML played below his average and LJK improved a lot this year. This is the main reason for the outcome. But the bad serve choice worsen ML's chances. If you look at the FZD vs LJK match at the finals, you can see that most of FZD's serves went to the FH side. This prevented FZD from...

When ML is in trouble, he begins to use his high toss serve and when this also fails, BH serve. I don't know what is his serve against banana flickers, but LJK easily attacked his high toss serves. ML should realize this and avoid the BH. He didn't do that and lost. When he served short to the...

I wouldn't blame the two-color ball. Ma Long risked that LJK will flick his serves. Most of the times LJK didn't attacked the serves coming short to his FH. That's another question if this ball helps reading the spin or not. When DHS announced two-colored ball, I painted one to red/white (with...

Revolution No.3

Player 1's set ratio is 4/5, Player 2's 3/4 and Player 3's 5/3. That's how I would count, but I can be wrong.

It's very useful for teaching beginners. I'm always insecure how to introduce the shots. Offtopic: korean sounds like a mixture of japanese and chinese. Chinese sounding words(+r characters) in japanese rhythm and stressing.
