  1. How Did I Win or Lose a Match?

    I stand by everything I wrote, I did not misrepresent anything. That is why I said it was valuable data points. many things in TT need to be felt and experienced firsthand. He wasn't only just gracious. He was partnering with you and helping you out. A LOT of players who are that better level...
  2. Pro versions of rubber vs commercial versions

    Somewhere in New York City, some TTD Admin with a seriously advanced spyphone just sent out an alert for some random people to do some random things right at a certain point... someone deposits what looks like a pile of used rubbers in front of some steps somewhere in Brooklyn... an attractive...
  3. How Did I Win or Lose a Match?

    Some other things one could see LDM7 do progressively well as the doubles matches piled up was to see the action and know what is happening... and to strive to move to position. When you are in position ready for action, you can make plays. Granted, he was getting higher level players' attacks...
  4. How Did I Win or Lose a Match?

    LDM7 and I were able to get in an hour or so of work spread out over a couple times. Roman (the pastor I rain) brought in my former espresso machine (that I sold to him) and halfway through I made 8 cappuccinos. He also brought in Creps and choco and jam. We went over some basic vital stuff we...
  5. Introduce yourself to the forum! :)

    There is a famous Korean Youtube lady who runs a club and league in Seoul called ILovePingPong - if you knew Korea you would love the stuff on her channel. (4) ilovepingpong - YouTube
  6. Ayano vs Tawny Banh

    If you are high level, but do not play, but only coach, you drop a LOT of level. If you are high level, but stop playing and get a desk/chair job, you drop even more level. It has to be something along those lines.
  7. Tibhar MX-K H and MX-K M

    I would agree with NL's comment about MX-K not being uber high spin on the weak to medium impacts. You swing weak, you only get weak speed/spin. You give medium, you get medium. You give full, you get a turbo. T05 with a half-azz swing can get you 70-80 percent of its spin potential... and THAT...
  8. Tibhar MX-K H and MX-K M

    MX-K is high spin and very dynamic on max impacts. I like it lot on big swings. On lesser impacts it is a very stable and linear rubber, you know what you are going to get from it based on what you did. Slow heavy openers are easy, so are power loops and so is counter looping. On the fast blades...
  9. Tibhar MX-K H and MX-K M

    Hi Michael, Nexy Korea is sold out in 47 degree 2.1 and there is some 52 stock left. They have a few sheets of the 2.3 sponge remaining. I have some MX-K 47 and 52 with me. PM me if you want. I use MX-K on FH still. It is more dynamic on top end. Etika handles incoming spin well. Etika...
  10. Attn Carl - Smashfan would love this thick Auntie City Player

    Kim Seon Ah plays vs the Korean AUNT of Smashfan. Nice action interesting play.
  11. Pro versions of rubber vs commercial versions

    Oh No !! Look out !! Carl gunna need to duck the Goon Squad again when these kind of threads pop up.
  12. Basic advice on knowing spin from long pips?

    Friction Long Pips can kill a lot of spin too, so they do not automatically return spin to you in the same amount you gave or a certain proportion. The way they impact the ball, the rubber, the angle, the grip, the force applied all affect the rebound and spin. A certain stroke and impact can...
  13. Video Footage Safe Thread

    Immediately as I was in Korea in 2009, I saw 1000-2000 level 40-50+ yr old AUNTIE crowd PRACTICE dead ball to dead ball exchanges at medium speed (what Carl calls fast on a serve) for as much as a FULL HOUR per day in the rinky dink Korean 4 table TT clubs. Needless to say, the Achuma Auntie...

    Toss me into the category of "Other Player" who "does not care about being 100% textbook" :D I care a lot more about combat effectiveness and combat readiness... a whole more than just looking good. Anyone watching me do FH to FH close to table in warmup not knowing me would judge me to be...
  15. Video Footage Safe Thread

    If I want to screw with their minds sum MOAR, I would BH serve from middle of table to their LP pips... I would keep ball low and slow light spin or topspin... then I would BH loop real heavy topspin anywhere. They would block it like it is light to medium spin... then ball flies off their bat...
  16. Video Footage Safe Thread

    When I want to show off vs the LP crowd... and IF (a big if) they do not step around and try to kill me with a FH) I would serve fast topspin right at their pips to get an underspin ball return long... I would then loopkill crush it cross court FH or topspin EXTRA HEAVY and SLOW to their FH...

    Hi Gozo, We could write a WHOLE BOOK on how to play vs LP players. If you go to Korea, 80% of the women players and 10% of the men use inverted/LP. Take a vacation there and you will have full exposure. I agree with Carl that it starts by understanding spin and how to read it... and how to...
  18. KJH keeps telling lady to WAIT more to do at table BH loop

    That makes sense as she is also a big time retailer of Joola and wears JOOLA gear in all her vids. ALL of her team and a lot of her guests use Joola.
  19. KJH keeps telling lady to WAIT more to do at table BH loop

    The lady in the vid looks and acts an awful LOT like the famous Korean lady youtuber and TT club owner ILOVEPINGPONG. (8) ilovepingpong - YouTube
  20. KJH keeps telling lady to WAIT more to do at table BH loop

    KJH literally has to tell the lady to wait for the ball to almost hit her before she impacts it. She impacting ball too soon. When she has hte right timing, she falls/leans back... when she doesn't she almost misses the ball, but KJH says good, since the time to start stroke impact got right...
