  1. Top-end rubbers characteristics

    Hi guys, I want to create a chart with the newly released and older Tenergy rivals. Include: spin - speed - catapult/bounciness - throw angle/generated arc - topsheet hardness - sponge hardness - tackiness Rating will be ranged between 1 and 5 with the usage of +,- and the whole thing will be...
  2. Ask ITTF President Thomas Weikert a question on the TTD podcast!

    It's my fad, but they plan to change the camera angle of the streaming? Lots of people, both players and people who have seen competitive table tennis only by accident said me that the current angle is ...bad, and other angles where they could see the speed and arc of the ball is much more...

    Full length matches on youku.
  4. Olympic Legends vs Brazil Stars 2016

    WLQ was very unlucky: Calderano hit tons of net ball. Without that the match would be tougher but the youngster played very well. WLQ is really getting old, he plays in Waldner style now. :(
  5. My Journey: Keenan Southall (Vlogs)

    Hi! The link to your channel in your website doesn't works. I think we are in similar situation and on a similar level so I hurry to you! One of Hungary's best player, Ádám Pattantyús played from an early age, but then he gave up table tennis. At the age of 21 he restarted playing, with the goal...
  6. Table tennis and strength training

    Sit ups can help a lot. I think everything is above.
  7. Tearing my hair out with OX rubber

    Interesting, Revo 3 worked for me even with one layer. I didn't cared about the quality of the glueing, because that bat is just for training people against pips and the OX rubber was damaged, but it worked pretty well?!? I would go for the glue sheet.
  8. Improve footwork

    A very good series for footwork:
  9. jun mitzutani playing for Donic now?

    I just can't wait to hear Dima and Jun practice together! ;)
  10. Please help. Please Don't ignore. Very Urgent . BLADE SELECTION

    Hi, Mr.Spin, go for Viscaria or Kenta Matsudaira ALC! You can't go wrong with them, while you can read negative reviews about HL5. And IMO, someone who is an international player counts as professional. Shuki said that professional is someone who makes his/her living off from table tennis. It...
  11. Videos of my gameplay, advice welcomed!

    Boogar is right, you should stop before every serve. Listen to your heartbeat, then think about what will your next serve, what are your opponent's weak spots. When you earn a point, say CHO! (not at unforced errors)
  12. looking for a new rubber

    I don't know Maxxx500, but I would go for Donic Acuda Blue P1 over the M1 Turbo. Acuda Blue P2 what I've tried for around a half hour was good, even if it isn't my cup of tee. Didn't tried M1 Turbo, but M1 was definitely worse (I've tried a slightly boosted one)
  13. My friend sent me a picture of tiny bumps on his rubber. What do you think caused it?

    Some rubber reacts to oil and booster the same way. It's maybe something what the topsheet can suck in. First try to reglue, then clean the topsheet and let it dry. Clean the case also. If there is still some bumps, it's the rubbers sin: pimples detached from the sponge.
  14. Korea Open 2016

    I wanted to say with 'his shoes' that he slipped multiple times, MANY times, even at critical points. It's so frustrating when you feel that you can reach the ball and then ...no. Not once, not twice, many times. And he missed some easy shot, what is also depressing.
  15. My summer training to get in form

    My summer training and tip on training, techniques Hi guys, in this thread I will share ideas about training, techniques and in general about my summer training. I don't have a camera, just a very-very bad phone camera (unusable for recording table tennis), so there won't be too much video...
  16. Korea Open 2016

    Poor Fang Bo. His shous made him crazy and get mentally destroyed. Great play by Flore, I'm sure when Ma Long go home firstly he will analyse Flore's services. ML clearly enjoyed that someone (who isn't his teammate) could give him hard time.
  17. Korea Open 2016

    I've take a look on Ovcharov's statistics and he doesn't have too much unexpected loss. He played 2-3 against Joao Monteiro and was beaten by CCY. Beside that he was beaten by CNT players, Mizutani and two times by Oshima Yuya. I think who is more inconsistent is Oshima Yuya. He has the skill...
  18. Rubbers Quick Voting

    I always use a rubber for a year, because I also don't have too much money. But in the summer you can get accustomed to even a rubber what you don't like that much. I spent around 180$ for equipment in the last 3 years and this is the first time I bought a rubber, what I've used before...
