LA28 is too far away but right now, WCQ seems better than the rest, in my opinion. Just look at how he completely dominated Harimoto in the final! If he can maintain his motivation and mental stability, a Grand Slam is definitely within reach. Lin SD is improving, though he may never reach the...

Agree with @Brs . Please don't waste your time and money on changing equipment. It doesn't make much of the different than the one you have now. Check very good feedback you got here; train more with the robot and you will get better.

My new club is using that website to keep track of match results. It has its own rating, but similar to USATT. I am not sure about beginner or semipro levels or up but the descriptions about intermediate to expert levels seem reasonable to me. @Lazer : Why do you think you are not at Advanced...

Where did you see that? WTT site didn't update with points from the Finals yet.

Do you think focus was the problem or it was something else? They are pro. It is not like they think about what to eat for dinner during the match, right?

Wang just demolished Tomozaku to claim the Finals. Does anyone else feel like their opinion has shifted and that he now deserves the number 1 spot? In the Elo rankings, he’s risen to number 2, still trailing Lin, but his performance in Fukuoka reminded me of the dominant version of himself we...

Currently, Wang Chuqin holds the top spot in the ITTF rankings with a considerable lead. However, his lackluster performance recently has sparked debates about whether he truly deserves it. Wang had a phenomenal start to the year, dominating Fan Zhendong 4-0 to claim the Grand Finals. Following...

I order 4 sheets of AK47 and 300 more of Huieson training balls. In total, I now have almost 1,000 balls, many of which are still in the box. What's wrong with me?

OMG. You gals just woke up my EJ monster again. Is it the right time to replace my rubber below yet? Thanks! :)

@schrodingerskoalabear: Where are the strawberry flick, chop block, fishing, and under-table snake shot? 🙂 I agree with @_ak that your list is a bit too long and could benefit from being organized by importance to make tracking progress easier. I followed a structured skill progression list...

I am playing with ak47 blue/yellow on Palio CAT and I feel it is too fast for me. Maybe I am not good enough to control it yet (~USATT 1900)

This is a relative definition of 10 different levels in table tennis. It might be helpful to someone looking for what to practice to get to next level. https://laddera.com/help-improve#table_tennis_levels

I have this one recent video when I focus on practicing my backhand. My opponent's return is fairly simple so I have much more time to prepare my stroke. Does the technique look ok? Thank you!

To be fair, I am still not at his level yet. I got this one win mainly because he didn't expect I improved this fast. A few months ago, he gave me 5-0 lead in every game and I still lost. We didn't play for a while so he was surprised and unprepared when I could return his attack pretty well. I...

I beat two players, usatt 1900 and 2000 rating, for the first time in our leage last week. How? It is an interesting story. I've been suffering some knee pain for a few months and not able to loop or move as much. I decided to work on my push and block during this time, following along guidance...

Thank everyone for the comments. Relax and placement are the common feedback I got from high level players too. I will definitely focus on those next. My arm is doing ok now but my right knee starts feeling tired and weak, most likely from practice looping & probably being moved too much. I...

@NextLevel "playing too much from the shoulder" -> did you see I have this problem from my previous videos too? I recently changed my forehand stroke a bit to hit the ball more forward and less sideway (as pointed out by @blahness #37). I am not sure if that is when the problem happened but I...

Hi Everyone, My tennis elbow (from playing tennnis 2 years ago) came back so I had to rest for more than two months and couldn't playing much. I also changed to a much lighter setup (Palio CAT + Ak47 ~ 150g). I can get back to practicing regularly now so I like to give an update on two of my...

Thank @blahness and @NextLevel . Your comments are spot on! @blahness My backhand is much weaker side. I often avoid it by staying too close to the left corner and got punished when they put the ball to my right wide open corner. @NextLevel What you said are exactly what I experienced during...

Here is another video of my match today against Mark, the same person in my first video more than 2 months ago. I still lost but I felt I did better this time. Please let me know what you think. (Sorry that the camera angle is not good) Thank you!
