    Indeed, I unfortunately sold mine too, years ago.
  2. Table Tennis History - Steve Grant

    In the mid-50s there was a Belgian player, Norbert Van de Walle (defender). He played several years in the USA and also played for the US national team I think. Not too long ago, I saw him in a photo at a presentation of the National Championships table tennis from Belgium, 2024.
  3. Why no one plays Butterfly Tamca 5000 blades

    I played with a Gergely Tamca 5000 in my last years of training, just before I reached my highest level. That was then, for my level, actually too fast but for making topspin balls with an old-fashioned arm-swing (start low, finish high) and far from the table, it was great.

    But Gionis did not make it.
  11. Using a Blade designed for table tennis - Why isn't everyone making the switch!?

    Dotec and similar grips are ideal for people who play with a "broken wrist" (like Kanak Jha) and can still have their wrist make a down > up motion on top spin.
  12. Alternative to Gewo Hype XT Pro 50

    Is an Andro Rasanter C48 not a possibility? Or the Gewo Hype KR Pro 47.5?
