    I think a case where its def. appropriate is if they make an error on match point in a very close, hard fought match. Than you are just CHOing for the win after match point

  3. Found the perfect setup for everyone unless you're a pro

    He's wrong the perfect beginner paddle is: Zhang Jike ZLC Zyre 03 Zyre 03 Each boosted ofc I used this to jump from 500 to 2650 within 10 weeks. I have a pickleball background so easily adapted
  4. Do you teach or correct other people's techniques?

    Oh sorry just saying my personal experience
  5. Do you teach or correct other people's techniques?

    I think its all about the approach. I saw a couple practicing at the rec center, clearly trying to improve. They had a bucket of balls and were doing drills, but I saw glaring mistakes. I am pro coach worthy by any means, but very obvious mistakes that anyone 1200 USATT and above could say were...

  16. Chinese Women! What would be their ranking if they were men?

    One thing I do truly love about TT is how egalitarian it is at the lower levels, especially when compared to other sports!

  17. Chinese Women! What would be their ranking if they were men?

    The depth perception thing makes sense biologically. From our hunter gatherer background, men were the ones who had to hunt, usually using thrown tools so obviously depth perception was an extremely important trait. Women are more successful in fashion careers, design, etc - it is proven they...
  18. Should a beginner-intermediate player play with intermediate equipment or just grow into high level equipment?

    Thanks for your input...and making me more undecided! XD Maybe I should go the middle path and ask for the Viscaria since I dont have to replace the blade often, and go with the cheaper rubbers. I definitely don't want to have to buy D09c frequently, I am broke AF.

Much thanks to everyone here who helped me with that. I actually have...
