Had a couple training sessions with the robot with the Q968. FH felt good as expected, nice arc. BH also reminded me of why I did BH training with the 968 series before. It really lets you know when you're not striking the ball right. The difference between the Q and W is that with the Q even...

Can't be 100% sure but I think that's the issue as well. His big motion means he needs to play farther back from the table, which is not great for today's game.

Yea that one's obvious. Long means Dragon, and the word for dance and the word for 5 in Chinese is pronounced the same (Wu). Both blades thus have the same spoken name, Long Wu, in Chinese.

It connects via Bluetooth, and it usually says offline until you click on it and then it tries to connect. At least that's the case with my Halo.

Long push to long push IMO is not super useful. If I'm pushing long I'm expecting to either be attacked or I'm attacking the next shot. I do a good number of opening loop practices with my training partner, where we serve short backspin and followed by a long push (but occasionally short just to...

Well, Tongtong isn't a choker, she just isn't quite as good as the ones who typically won. She just needs some luck, be on the top of her game while her opponent isn't quite at the top of theirs, and then play enough games and she can win one. She doesn't usually have the best land rate when...

Yes, that's my girl Tong Tong! Silenced that fangirl crowd so good LMAO!

On the equipment side, my current rubbers are wearing out, so perfect time to make a change! I thought the current rubbers can last a while longer, but I think the recent FH focused training has really done a number on my FH H3. I just re-boosted it 2 weeks ago so the sponge is still OK, but the...

Your BH is looking real good, a ton of improvement there! That FH power is awesome as always. I think his inverted side gave you more trouble overall, because your more hitting style doesn't give him a lot of spin to reverse with his LP side. His switching between LP and inverted probably gave...

Idk, it doesn't really seem like a LPs issue to me. I watched the first 2 sets. In the 1st set you were 5-4 against his LP returns, you were 1-3 against his inverted side, only one was a loop by him, then you missed 3 service returns and 1 unlucky net. In the 2nd set, you lost 5 points on...

I think maybe goal is the wrong word for what I tried to convey. I really just meant knowing what you want out of TT and don't let other people tell you what you want. I remember once my wife gave me advice to not just try to copy the pros' form as it may not suit me, be too difficult, and...

Who knows, maybe they don't see it as an issue. Within China there's a growing sense of...let's say confidence. Older Chinese see the West as advanced and that their cultural norms should be adopted, and that's shared by many other Asians. The sense I get from China is that the younger...

Just as head heavy for me. I shaved ~2mm from the head of both my W and Q and it feels great. Still more head heavy than say a Viscaria but close enough now.

I doubt WTT addressed CTTA issues proactively, I'm assuming CTTA protested rather strongly for it to happen. You remember what the first response from WTT was after WCQ's racket was dropped and his rubber came undone, right? It was a very "nothing to do with us" type of response. The question...

USA! USA! My guess is that the "owners" are given basically free shares of what's really a pretty worthless stock for marketing purposes. They're probably paid some cash with the opportunity to turn those shares into something of worth if they can use their names to boost the brand. One of...

I think the important thing is to just identify your goals, and the important thing in identifying the goals is whether you'll have fun in the journey to reach them. If your goal is not a higher TTR then what is it? Make more whacky shots? Making more beautiful shots? Finding that next magical...

My practice partner is gonna take a scheduled hiatus, so this week is gonna be the last garage practice in a while. I'm getting close to reaching a desired form on my FH side, so thinking about switching back to the Q968 since that's my intended ultimate equipment. I decided to use the last home...

Fine tuning went well the past week, managed to get better rotation/weight transfer, shortening the activation sequence, and a less forward swing. It was too difficult to implement the stance change at the same time the rotation/weight transfer so gonna work on that next. Also still need to...

What's the downside of what you're complaining about though? I mean, so what if the smaller events are mostly domestic? I think they're great for many players who don't have the budget to travel, they can still get a world ranking that way.

I think you misunderstood me. When I switch I switch full time for a few months at a time to focus training on a particular aspect of my game.
