    Hillary Clinton or Ana Kournikova or Stormy Daniels. Dark horses are Tanya Harding and Lorena Bobit. Take ur pick.

    Rasanter is a very well rounded offensive rubber, does all very good, not super exceptional, much like Aurus. I would have recommended Aurus first, but they do not make it in green.

    yamagata... ask Aruna. I think a Rasanter would do well.

    HAHAHAHAHHAHHHHAAAAHHHHH!!!! True, what NL wrote, but also not absolute. (If one is beginning the sport as an adult learner. Der_Echte his damn self played the highest level of his TT career at hiz mid 50s weighing 110+ kg 250+ lbs for a midget puny sized height relative to Next Level. I...

    I recently played 2 similar level LP BH pips players here in a Bay Area tourney. These players were playing at a similar level to your LP opponent (one a little less one a little more level) and like you, I didn't give them any chance to get going. One was 1500, other 1600. The 1600 player...

    Yup, that would be where I rate him for east coast. If you 1800 or 1900 on east coast, then do 5-10 tourneys in bay area or LA, you quickly or slowly move to 1500 here. I am rated 1600 here and play a gazillion better than when I was on east coast rated 1900+. I am the poster child for this...

    Dude might get to and briefly hold a 1500 level in California.

    Yes, NL... Spin wins... and if one shows opponent he or she can spin attackable balls with any consistency... and opponent is not capable or inclined to counter the topspin ball... that player has huge tactical and psychological advantages in the match - especially as match get tighter at the...
  11. *VIDEO* - Please help me decide on a forehand rubber! 🙏

    Give Aurus soft some luv. Does what your current rubber does for half the cost and maybe land the ball more often.

    Yup, my kind of attitude when I see OX Grass D-Tex and certainly my preferred way of warfare vs such players. Shock and Awe to the max. Break all the rules and serve HEAVY underspin until they get the hang of it and then PULL THE DAMN CARPET OUT FROM UNDERNEATH THEM !!! Go to the DOG POUND...

    Sounds damn familiar to some matches I play... :D
  14. Blade broken in half, did this ever happen to you?

    Some people may be inclined to declare this is a deep AI fake operation. I had a really thin blade, maybe under 5 mm... I managed to crack this blade the same way in pretty much the same place vertically. I made a big power loop and maybe stuck a tiny off center and bam, blade cracked. I had...

    Der_Echte's interpretation of this is how easy or the tendency of the rubber (and blade) to have a resultant trajectory from the same swing/stroke/grip vs the same incoming ball. Some rubbers and blades are real easy to make the ball rebound at a higher or lower angle. The two main...
  16. How does the US TT rating work?

    All the levels and rankings are entirely relative in nature... What is defined as a "Good" amateur player in Romania (defined by my many US based Romanian friends and the World's largest EJ a former national team member)... they define a good amateur player as 2500 USATT level... that is a...

  18. Joo Sae Hyuk goofing off with double inverted bat vs Shin Yoo Bin

    Here is a short vid of JSH at WTT Frankfurt in total goof off mode using a DOUBLE INVERTED bat... He is attacking some a bit or a whole point, but clearly mostly goofing off. Enjoy. In before the fashion police bip bip.
  19. What elo rating is TTD and Pongfinity?

    ... and we could go on and on about how inconsistent USATT ratings are... (and why) and how they tend to differ regionally... You could be 1900-2000 rated in MO, OK, AK and KS... and you play enough tourneys and events in So Cal or Bay Area and you suddenly cannot keep ur head above 1500-1600.
  20. What elo rating is TTD and Pongfinity?

    As for how internal politicking works @TensorBackhand ... look no further than where you play !!! (SD Balboa) Back in the day, 1971 world CHAMPION Stellan Bengston was running the SD Balboa TT club... he grew that sucka from so many dozens to grow it so large like quadruple XXL increase in...
