  1. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    So after gluing the H3 38 back on my Q968, I had some BH opening loop practices in my garage against the robot, then took it to the club to try it out again. Everything started out incredible. Caveat it was against some lower level players, but man was I ripping that BH. Backspin or topspin...

    Bomba everywhere! I saw your recent videos, I know that BH WMD is coming along nicely!

    You're an inspiration to fireworks-lovers around the world, so get used to it :LOL:

    Alright, alright guys, you convinced me. I tried the 37 for a day and I just can't do it. I'd probably land more balls with it, but like master @Gozo Aruna, I'm in it for the fireworks and the H3 37 is just an airsoft :LOL: I used H3 37 before on my W968, I thought it'd be different with a...

    I've been waffling a bit between H3 and D09c on the BH of my Q968. The Q is crips enough to allow me to use the same stroke as the FZD if I use D09c. H3 would accentuate its capabilities better, but requires a different stroke than I've been learning. It's a more BH drive type of stroke, kind...
  6. Liang, Chen, Wen, Huang, who’s most likely to be the CNT No 3 for LA?

    Sure, but on the women side the CNT's strength is as much their depth as is their top players. Mixed teams eliminate the importance of a depth advantage. You look at the Japanese team for example, if the Harimoto siblings are on, they have an excellent shot of winning. Whereas on either men or...
  7. What USATT or TTR rank would TTD be?

    He's probably 2000-2100 level. His shots have very low quality for an adult, it's low quality even for a teenager, possibly due to his injury. He compares well with 2000 level older pre-teens who are very consistent with good feel, but suffer from poor power.
  8. Post your latest EJ purchase

    One of my clubmates got a HAL and I tried it out over the weekend. It's a pretty nice blade, doesn't seem to play very different from my FZD ALC. Both have a more woody feel and more flex than the Viscaria. He had D09c/D05 on it so I used the D09c side to test the BH and I felt very little...
  9. DHS 968 Thread

    I'm the exact opposite! No matter how long I use BTY blades I'm just drawn to the DHS handle and wings. That plays a big part in my decision to keep going back to DHS as well.
  10. DHS 968 Thread

    So I ended up sticking to the FZD for 6 months as I started getting coaching and didn't wanna mess with equipment for a while. Now I've improved my FH/BH fundamentals I decided to give the Q968 a twirl. The FH is fantastic, not the exaggerated arc of the W968 but better than the FZD, great spin...

    It's available but there's a glitch on the mobile version. It's supposed to be in the 3 dots on the top right, but when you click on it it's fully occupied by ads. That's a formatting issue, the search button should be in there along with the ads. You can get around this problem by turning your...
  12. Q968 compared to Fan Zhendong ALC and Innerforce ZLC

    I was a FZD ALC (H3BS/D09c) user who recently switched to the Q968 (H3BS/H3OS). It's got a very different feel, so it's impossible to tell if you'd like it. It's very much in between a W968 and a FZD, got some great flex when hit hard, has more of a slingshot effect than the FZD, which when hit...

    Watching CY vs. Winter, I wonder why more pros don't play like CY vs. Winter/Akula's style? A lot of those BH anti/LP blocks are clearly long, so why push them back? Why not keep up the pressure, especially pivot to get a FH loop in? I never understood the one push, one loop strategy. It's so...
  14. Best rubber for Long 5 BH

    Doesn't the H8 only come in number 80 and 20 sponges? So which one are you referring to as the "normal" H8?
  15. Best rubber for Long 5 BH

    H8-80 or 20? H3 boosted certainly is a bit slow but has oodles of spin, and when hit hard the power of the blade and rubber harmonize well and you can hit some real cracking shots. The issue with the HL5's BH is that it holds onto the ball a very long time, so your typical power BH strokes are...
  16. faulty durometer ?

    Two points. One, the scales are all different, so the measurements are only useful when using the same scale. This is particularly the case because hardness listed only applies to the sponge, and you have no way of measuring just the sponge. This leads to the second point, which is don't use...

    Interesting, I would've thought that playing farther back would be a bit more taxing on your body? Either way, just play the way you'd like to play, and perhaps find a coach who'd coach you that way. I know my coach doesn't work for everyone. He points out everything that's wrong with your...

    It wasn't a long service, it was an ambiguously half long one which caused the hesitation as Manav couldn't decide between a BH loop or push, resulting in a and relatively weak and push. With a long backspin you might get a pivot FH loop-kill down the line by your opponent instead or a much...
  19. Best Method to boost H3 BS

    As some of you might already know, H3's take a while to play well after initial boosting. So my question is, for those who glue the rubber fairly quickly after boosting, how has your experience been? Does the timing for gluing matter? Does hitting with it speed up the process? It seems to me...
  20. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    I've started going to the club a bit more often the past 2 weeks, with the goal of applying some of my recent trainings. I feel like I've made some pretty good improvements in my game play. Today I went to a coaching session, first time using the Q968 for a full club session as H3 takes like a...
