Just saw this expo match, some fun and Waldner in a new Donic uniform.

So... was the short tip session on BH, or the discarded no longer tuned fake H3 more relevant and valuable? :D

Used to stomp around Mannheim a bit, great place. I hope you link up with people, you are very likely to meet some damn good people in TT.

Yes, find me, I am very large, loud, well dressed, and very easy to spot. Will be willing to hit with you and talk. Help me out by making a Sign-Up Sergey Tsos thread... I promised my friend to keep joking him (like making him the National H3 expert on TTD) until he signs up. Sergey has a LOT...

On the path to doing competitive matches to regain my play level... prolly lost 3-4 levels over the last 2+ years avoiding competitive singles, with the excuse of bad play conditions and such play not fun. Well, it isn't fun to lose this much competitive pay level, so back to the halls with...

Aurus Soft - you can do everything with it... and if you buy at tabletennis11.com with enough of an order, you get it for under $30 USD a sheet. Tibhar FX-D - VERY dynamic, you can overpower topspin with it, so also make you own heavy or blast shot. Very modern dynamic soft sponged rubber. $33...

I might go there this year IF... we can get Sergey TSOS to register for TT, I would transport him to that tourney if if starts talking on TTD. I still think it will be a wonderful tourney.

Enjoy the action. Familiar lady face here too... Seo Hyo Won's sister.

Thanks, but it is a more practical and keeping it real thang more than wisdom.

Hi GM, you observed correctly that in the vid he is not showing 2200+ skill much, but in tourneys, a 2200+ player facing a sub 2000 player will do the minimum amount of hard work to win. At that level, there are so many ways to control the opponent. You can see signs of it, but not full out all...

@Jslick89 This Korean vid explains a lot of the concepts, but you do not need as much arm... you can do what is in the vid with a shorter swing, impact closer to your body, and firming at impact. Coach Lee discusses these in the eng subs. Hitting the ball more in front is OK, if you are...

Yes, this is true and correct what you just said. There is no single correct answer, and ultimately, if we are to stay in the sport, we must enjoy it and play in a way we can keep enjoying.

I am glad you were able to receive the small items I articulated. You have a desire to improve and that is why I talked to you. Truth being, many players around you your level stay there, because they do not want to do the things to change nor endure the failure and expense. What I showed you...

Just about everyone at the Church I play at is Ukrainian with a Russian or Belarus parent. The Pastor I have been trying to train the last year or two was exactly like that (he is the younger brother of the 60 yr old player I described) and very difficult to get him to relax joints and play...

Yes GM, it is true that well trained consistent hitters can crack top ten percent of players... and hopefully I articulated this well. There is a local player here who would be on the verge of top ten percent if he did enough tourneys... dude is in the Russian Church and played many decades...

Yes, it is a fact that Pushblocker did achieve a significantly higher than 2000 rating, prolly a consistent upper 2100s true level... but he played that level in the era of 40 mm cell ball and frictionless LPs. Yes, he pretty much blocked, or fast bumped the ball without attacking much of...

For many players, SPIN is a four letter word that starts with an S. It MUST be an obscene word, I do not see majority of players do much spin in their shots. Still, on can get to top ten percent of players without having to spell that word much, there is that.

Watch out, the bumbling Goon Squad is closing in on your location. You still have time, they like to stop for a bread and butter before their raids.

I was waiting for someone to see that 895 is not 968... the blade all forum EJs drool in their Spiderman undies about.

lodro, What is real crazy is how some players in competition will go to illegal serves or poor sportsmanship to get an edge to win. That is worse than just illegal serving. I get it that some never supported ITTF or natl assn who copy/paste/adopt the ITTF laws.
