  1. Politics - Any and All Political Discussions Not Really Related to TT

    You keep repeating "oh, just make counteragruments" but haven't you paid attention that people like Zeio and Igor don't interact and just keep shitposting? :) What's the value of that "interaction" and having such a topic on a TT forum? If someone posted the wildest conspiracy theory and...
  2. Politics - Any and All Political Discussions Not Really Related to TT

    It's only due to a single active moderator's will. In other words, it somehow reaffirms his worldview, otherwise I don't see an excuse to have a topic on a TT forum with lazy anti-western propaganda (at least partially AI-generated) with no interaction from a shitposter :)
  3. Politics - Any and All Political Discussions Not Really Related to TT

    You're knocking the wrong door. He is only interested in spreading blatant CCP propaganda, not communicating :) Same, no clue why this topic was allowed.
  4. I wasted 12 years of my life trying to play table tennis

    The Onion golden era, often related to that video myself :)
  5. Zyre 03 Rubber Review with Dimitrij Ovtcharov!

    In all fairness, Fan lost both of his matches 0-3 to Felix and 0-3 to Alexis while using Zyre 03. Can't imagine such a result while using D09c. *I myself enjoy Zyre 03 big time.
  6. Politics - Any and All Political Discussions Not Really Related to TT

    Since banning is virtually prohibited on this forum, I think this topic is somewhat a containment cell for crazy people like zeio.
  7. ITTF WTTTC Finals London 2026, 4/28-5/10

    True that. Wang Liqin and Wang Hao also stormed into the scene with the tornado-style spray, only then to become the most stable serial topspinners. Ma Long was quite the same, with his early 10s performance being nothing but relentless attacks from both wings. Same about FZD and WCQ. I can only...
  8. ITTF WTTTC Finals London 2026, 4/28-5/10

    Yup, basically Kanak said FZD has neither the most powerful backhand nor most powerful forehand (even in his TTBL team), but his consistency is unprarallelled, so the ultimate power isn't the most important factor.
  9. ITTF WTTTC Finals London 2026, 4/28-5/10

    Althout the loss against Korea doesn't stop China from competing further. But I would like to stress it was a loss against Korea without their leader (Jang Woojin). And it was Korea that was previously battered by Sweden 0:3 (even when having Jang Woojin in the squad). Interesting times it is.
  10. Run-in between Moregard and SBTF?

    Although I don't necessarily disagree with what you say, I don't see other successful players (some much more decorated) demanding this many concessions from their associations. I don't feel for the SNT, it's rather Truls' hostility towards his fellow teammates. Unfollowing on IG and being...
  11. Run-in between Moregard and SBTF?

    Wait, didn't Truls lose to Jon Persson 0-3 just recently in the Swedish league? I see where you're coming from, but Truls still hasn't won a single major title (you can only maybe count WTT Smash, but those happen so frequently plus WCQ was absent) to be in position to demand "diva-level"...
  12. Run-in between Moregard and SBTF?

    If the SNT complies with all of the Truls' requirements, I swear, the next time he will demand to include Malte as the SNT player, father as the head coach, and sister as the media manager xD
  13. Run-in between Moregard and SBTF?

    I take his posts as a form of entertainment. Imo, taking it seriously isn't gonna make anyone happy.
  14. Run-in between Moregard and SBTF?

    Truls and drama, name a more iconic duo :)
  15. Just Butterfly Glayzer (on backhand)

    I have only tried D05 1.9m out of the Dignics lineup, and it seemed vastly different from the max thickness--those are different rubbers.
  16. Beating the plateau at low intermediate level

    Can't agree more. As a big guy, who focuses on spinning from both wings, I miss the days when Baracuda could overwhelm people with spin. I have accepted the reality of not keeping up with modern league players with harder rubbers--every time I tried D05/D09C and committed, I just involved myself...
  17. Durability of Rubbers (Zyre 03, Dignics 09c, Dignics 05, Glayzer)

    The most durable rubbers I know: Dignics 05/64/80, Glayzer (normal, not 09C), Fastarc G1, Hammond Z2. Didn't own Zyre 03, but the teammates say it's about the same durability as the D05/64/80, which is excellent. They are all grippy tensors and last about twice as long as when compared to D09C...
  18. Just Butterfly Glayzer (on backhand)

    G09C is slower than MK, the grip is about the same, maybe G09C is even grippier. The major difference between D09c and G09c is the speed/arc. D09C is more direct, while G09C has a bigger parabola. And G09C is slighly livelier on short touches but noticeably slower than D09C when you engage the...
  19. Just Butterfly Glayzer (on backhand)

    I can agree about G09C, with enough strenght you can produce solid spin--the dwell and arc are excellent. The normal Glayzer lacks dwell and arc/spin, and with a much softer sponge it's all about controlling the ball rather than scoring.
  20. ITTF Men's and Women's World Cup Macao 2026, 3/30-4/5

    Props to Darko for playing like a beast. But man, you gotta admire WCQ's mental fortitude. During autumn 2024 the Chinese team was seriously concerned he might have become the 2nd Lin Gauoyan after a series of losses. Instead, he pulls off incredible comebacks--the former boy is the real...
