1420 Food for thought / inspiration 🍿 1. Drill setup and the <Play ball> button For illustration, let's use the following 2-ball drill (actually 5 different ball productions grouped into "2 balls"): Ball 1: ball1a (1x), ball1b (2x) Ball 2: ball2a (5x), ball2b (4x), ball2c (3x) When...

If AI assistance helps members communicate more effectively, that could be beneficial. If it produces large quantities of repetitive, superficial or irrelevant material, that could obviously become annoying. But perhaps the appropriate response is simply to evaluate contributions according to...

This brings me to what I consider perhaps the most interesting aspect of the entire discussion: how should a specialist forum actually respond to the increasing availability of AI-assisted communication? There are several possible approaches, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. The...

Another aspect which I find particularly interesting is the potential effect of AI-assisted contributions on the dynamics of specialist discussion forums. Traditionally, a table tennis forum has relied heavily on the accumulated experience of its members. A player might describe how a...

Re: Am I the only one who has noticed a remarkably large increase in posts & comments that are clearly written entirely or partly by AI? I think this is a genuinely interesting observation, although I would be somewhat cautious about drawing immediate conclusions from the apparent increase in...

There is also the question of environmental conditions. The original post correctly mentions heat as a factor in tennis. However, environmental stress is not exclusively associated with outdoor sports. Indoor table tennis venues can also present challenging conditions. Depending on the venue...

And what about hotel accommodation? Does the athlete have access to an appropriate mattress? Is the room sufficiently dark? Is the air conditioning adequately regulated? Is the ambient temperature suitable? Is there sufficient opportunity to prepare meals? Are laundry facilities available? How...

On the other hand, tennis players frequently have considerably more time to recover their positioning after playing a shot. Of course, this depends on the type of shot, the position of the opponent, the quality of the previous shot, the rally length, the surface, and numerous other variables...

# Re: Is the table tennis tournament schedule more brutal than for tennis? This is actually a surprisingly multifaceted question, and I think we need to approach it from several different angles before arriving at any meaningful conclusions. In particular, I believe that the question of whether...

minor "cosmetic" bug in UI. in Built-in drills, e.g. Basic:Level2: Push BH, when i add a ball2 and turn on Random for the 2-ball-drill, then at Home 🏡, Level1: Push BH and Level3: Push BH get tagged "Random" too, although they consist of ball1 only (single ball drill). nbd

If we're talking about production volume (number of blades and rubber sheets manufactured), rather than brand prestige, sales revenue or professional-player popularity, I'd distinguish between the two product categories. ### 1. Likely volume leaders | Brand | Blades | Rubbers |...

In future i could imagine a having a setting in the 🥪 sandwich menu which addresses handedness (right-handed vs left-handed player) because this would switch the labeling of "forehand" and "FH" in the UI. Also a global setting which addresses the initial countdown of 3 sec, before a drill even...

Thanks for realizing my suggestion! Yes, landscape view works great on all my Android devices (phones, tablets), with no more scrolling 👍 . As in the previous screenshot shown, i also figured out how to get rid of the nbd "title row" <Nova Trainer (title) - nova-premium.pages.dev (subtitle)>...

@nova_fan Congratulations to such a deeply developed web app, i would say the most sophisticated design we've seen so far, amazing! I haven't tested it yet but will give a serious shot soon, and it might draw me back to using the Nova at all ((I stopped using the Nova ever since i got the...

For our reference, got this flyer the other day in my mail, DONIC's official introductory price is 1099€ shipped, valid thru 2026-12-31, amazing value: And yes, I've still been using the Omni regularly (see my signature), and I prefer it to my two Nova units. Interesting sidenotes: I use only...

Hi @joebulatao , how's your health and strength been after all these years or more recently? Long time no see on the forums!

the grey-haired man is the infamous highly decorated 75yo+ material player Schuler (bh long pips, fh attacking rubber). the opponent's bh stroke (pips or inverted, doesn't matter) is either a bh push/chop/slice or his inverse (and yes, Schuler himself occasionally executes an inverse too with...

Yes and yes. "someone who is tall". This technique is naturally favored by/favors tall players (or massive/big players, or with straight legs). And the execution of the stroke becomes/looks a bit awkward, if one stands very low, with bent spread legs, true. And also true, i wouldn't necessarily...

Here is another Here is just another vid with Koch. With his bh, he either does a spinny harmless push, not putting his opponent under pressure, or an inverse block. Upon cerves to his bh, he sometimes answers with an inverse receive, nice: In this match, he didn't get a chance to unleash...
