  1. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    My knee injuries from the summer are pretty much healed. Knees get some creaky after 5 hrs TT at Russian Church or 3 hrs on tennis courts, but all in all, 50/50 wearing knee sleeves, riding the bike for those 10 mile or less local trips, and being careful not to go crazy on the running are...
  2. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    Latej, You may remember from some of my KJH vids that KJH very frequently talks about how the non hitting hand helps the hitting hand... how to better use the off hand to help amplify/channel/deliver force to the ball. You are not making some new mis-information, what you are saying is legit.
  3. How Did I Win or Lose a Match?

    As for spreading wisdom, I would in many other circles be loudly and falsely accused of spreading mis-information. I would accept that those commenting are simply being reasonable in their ways and views, whether they all say the same thing or not. There is no single correct answer in TT.
  4. How Did I Win or Lose a Match?

    Yes Richie, I would agree that increased touch is one of the things to be gained during goof of time and it is HUGE.
  5. How Did I Win or Lose a Match?

    As for wisemen, I can probably name several trios of wisemen who are much wiser than any of us... but I guess I would rate pretty high up there in the ranks of wisecracker or wiseazz jokers...
  6. How Did I Win or Lose a Match?

    Watch what I do when Pastor Roman attacks. Watch HOW I do it (in a simple way). Watch how to get the ball into the zone and take a direct swing path to the ball in the strike zone. Watch how little it takes to make an offensive counter shot. Watch how I leverage with my body without a full body...
  7. How Did I Win or Lose a Match?

    YES. ... and this is an issue for nearly EVERY adult learner. The player grows and increasingly realizes what needs improvement and it mission creeps into EVERYTHING needs improvement. ... and of course it is damn impossible to train everything all the time. As a result, many players end up...
  8. How Did I Win or Lose a Match?

    Here locally, on Table friggin 5 and 6 of 8 tables in league, you have players rated anywhere from 900 to 1200... and none of them are kids, these are all adult players who never learned as kids... and almost all of them (except for the pips hitters) loop... some can make a little heavy spin...
  9. What is the best alternative for Tenergy 05?

    That was meaning the velocity of your bat in a swing. It is very common to say "You need a fast bat to loop underspin" and such things when discussing how to make fast bat speed. I was referring to that. Sry if I confused you... I only try to confuse people when I serve.
  10. What is the best alternative for Tenergy 05?

    Gozo, I say the same thing to you that I say to LDM7. If you want to stick with BTY, on BH go for Rosena or T05FX. Tibhar has a few more rubbers appropriate for you. FX-P is my first and best recommendation. It is a very control oriented modern offensive rubber. Some pros even use it, despite...
  11. How Did I Win or Lose a Match?

    I still stand by my assertion that LDM7 benefits greatly by reading and examining and implementing what both brs and NL say.
  12. How Did I Win or Lose a Match?

    Hi LDM7, BH is both getting you into trouble and into the driver's seat. Tactically, it isn't landing often enough and with enough quality to take over the point all the time. Strategically, it is important you attempt to open with the BH when the ball is there for it... even if you miss some...
  13. Please Explain this FH video instruction (especially korean guys)

    I just dry-hit a few shadow strokes on this and I see that I adjust at the end to go forward NOT by rotating my arm like coach shows in the short... my natural way is to rotate the upper arm clockwise with elbow and shoulder joint relative stable... so upper arm bone twists clockwise (the bone...
  14. Please Explain this FH video instruction (especially korean guys)

    Listening to the possible context presented by LT, it would make sense to get down low, swing up, then more forward before impact. After all, there is a table in the way. Turning the wrist in a natural way using not full power seems doable enough. I give halflong balls to people I train and...
  15. Please Explain this FH video instruction (especially korean guys)

    Yes, LT, this is why I wished there was more before and after what was on the short. I would want to know context and any further specific things he said. There was some mumbling and one half sentence said. One could take such a short from any KJH vid I gist and say KJH is doing it totally...
  16. Please Explain this FH video instruction (especially korean guys)

    I stayed strictly in the lanes of answering what coach said, even if it was cut off before and after. I know how everyone would debate this and I wasn't interested. I don't think I go exactly totally straight line to ball either, but it isn't so pronounced. I would agree trying to change too...
  17. Lost all tackiness in a new rubber

    Try a lemon juice olive oil rub and wipedown.
  18. Affordable first custom racket for ambitious new adult player

    Find a local EJ and but him a rack of Erdinger in exchange for a reject bat with rubbers and call it a day. Chances are, that EJ was not gunna use it much, prolly has low usage, and prolly better for you than him.
  19. Please Explain this FH video instruction (especially korean guys)

    Well, that channel is all J-Pen all the time and all you see in that club is J-Pen players going at it... Interesting, but understandable, even ten years ago J-Pen players were maybe 15 percent of all players, but at least 1/3 of all Div 1 players. Before the new system, Park PD was an Open...
