  1. Build your dream male table tennis player

    Forehand: harimoto Backhand: Xu Xin Footwork: waldner Serve: WLQ Block: Smash: Chen Qi Chop: Lob: Da Pang Mental Game: Lin GuoYuan I call it worst of the best. They're all top drawer players and I picked the worst part of their games. I wonder what that rating of such a player would be (WR)
  2. SARS-CoV-2; CoVID-19; Coronavirus; Updates and Information

    93% is respectable if you can run two tests bringing it to 99.51%. but that is assuming the 7% is just random and not down to specific reasonings. We
  3. Would switching to a 5 ply wood blade help at this point?

    Can we not circle jerk our rating too hard. His official rating is 954, if we give advice off that it's useless to him as it will be, work on pushing and stroke work as you can't loop. If anyone thinks he might be 1800-2100 and by his admission doesn't take tournaments then his rating is...
  4. Xlnt sports

    I bought two fastarc G1 as cheapest available. Both came promptly
  5. Doubt about changing

    Clipper wood not oc with Chinese forehand and mx-p backhand for aweosme shots would be my choice over M2. Or even JP-02/03 for the control on blocks and punches.
  6. God-like" All-Wood blades around the $30-$60 price range POLL

    I'm not one anymore but holding it down for my penhold brothers and no blade was more impactful from 200-2010 than the humble ma Lin extra offensive
  7. How to explain why somebody must be passive when exercising

    You're issue with the "messy" stroke is you trying to get spin by brushing up the ball but using a forward stroke. Try to keep your swing on one tangent like a / forward slash, the single move looks smooth and nice. You're moving the stroke forward then up and going UHH as you change the stroke...

    it's hard to tell because beds =/= ventilators. but lets hope for the best
  9. SARS-CoV-2; CoVID-19; Coronavirus; Updates and Information

    That seems like a better survival rate than most general ITU admissions. I suspect either: A.) good system allowing admissions that are non-urgent and less clinically unstable or B.) priority to younger patients while the co-morbid and elderly do not get beds as some trusts have started
  10. SARS-CoV-2; CoVID-19; Coronavirus; Updates and Information

    Can we leave the politics out of science. We have plenty of geographic names. Derbyshire Neck, MERS, Spanish Flu, African Sleeping Sickness Japanese encephalitis etc. China virus might be a colloquium which would be fine. Pro tip: Spanish Flu wasn't even from Spain! Thy were just neutral and...

    It isn't as bad as people think, this will likely be used mostly in hospital setting where we will do an ECG no problem. The arrythmias come from the class action that prolongs the QT so you can just make sure it's below 500 and stop any other drugs that prolong it to stop any real risk of...

    yeah ivermectin is commonly used against parasites and particularly worms!
  13. SARS-CoV-2; CoVID-19; Coronavirus; Updates and Information

    ITU mortality stands at 50%, 30% for non-ventilated and 80% if you require ventilation. We are rolling out a trial currently for Hydroxychloroquine, Dexamethasone, interferon Alpha IIb, Protease inhibitor with a booster or No additional treatment. No results yet. Remain hopeful but be aware...
  14. Q: Beginner set

    also I want to suggest battle 2 is not the best beginner Chinese rubber. H3 NEO 38 is. Its slower and more forgiving on every shot and also for me B2 topsheet will seperate easily from sponge if you are unlucky which as a beginner would frustrate me as you likely don't have a back up blade and...
  15. Q: Beginner set

    How long have you played. What have you played with before and style. I personally would suggest a new battle 2 over a used probably fake H3 national. And if you don't use Chinese rubbers to begin with it makes even less!
  16. Need Help Choosing a CPen Blade

    Just try the MEO. It was used by ma Lin and Wang hao basically their whole career since the HH and hh2 are similar to the MEO. And stiga intensity nct which was xx blade for ages. It's medium fast but with hurricane 3 neo it's controllable. Penhold blades are hard outers because it benefits...

    Darker have a few and maybe neottec
  18. Need Help Choosing a CPen Blade

    Stiga have the worst quality of any manufacturer. The wood is rough and splinters and quite a few lines are prone to delamination. The wood only blades are fantastic feeling but be away they can break unexpectedly when changing rubbers or delamination for no reason. The stiga carbon blades are...
  19. Need Help Choosing a CPen Blade

    Get a MEO or a Loki Black Flame (5 ply rosewood) if you want to save cash. Hard outer and carbon makes feeling difficult for looping and soft play but driving and fast blocks are improved. Hard outer 5 ply is a good cpen idea. Take a OFF blade and a Chinese rubber. Faster blade will substitute...
  20. Strategy for dealing with Harimoto's screaming

    He is an amazing player. Especially when age is taken into account. His progress is stalling currently and his mind seems weaker now he is on top and not an underdog. I hope he, LYJ, and some other up and comers keep improving. But until his mind and hopefully respect for the sport improve I am...
