Funny to see this old thread years later. Satoshi has improved greatly and I think he's chosen the right equipment. The "Why" everyone is asking here is that LPs do not always command respect against certain players. Many people know quite well how to play LPs or are flat low-spin players...

I think it's a combo of being an extremely good dude and (possibly) clinically certifiable. ;) Hahaha I'm opening up my DSM-5 manual right now... Don't worry, I've got a few diagnoses in there myself.

| Japsican = Nuke Skywalker on TTD Yes, this was very helpful. Interestingly, it's something I don't typically have to do with my forehand chops. I think that on my forehand side, I match the incoming rotation pretty well and use throw to guide the height (at my level). But against really...

What times/days are you looking at? I only play on Tues/Thurs after 8... if then

“Bad Behavior” is not the term I used. Behavior that negatively impacts others is what I’m targeting here. This can sometimes be unintentional, which is why it’s always important to point out. Social norms are governed by the society one is in, and judging by the amount of likes my post got...

Can you explain how it's "Difficult" for you? Do you have a physiological response? Is it medical in nature? Also, do you also find it difficult to watch ugly men play table tennis? Which men in your opinion are attractive enough to watch? It's everyone's responsibility to push back against...

I don't know. I feel like the second forehand that guy played was weak due to the weird spin on it. The guy did a sidespin block...almost a chop block or a jpen TPB block which gives lots of people trouble. I hear what you're saying, but I think this trend is in Asia as well. Lots of...

I like that TBP... When the korean table tennis club here put on the tournament, IMO it was the best local tournament we ever had. It was huge. Food was served, it was a big event. Sadly, they haven't done another tournament like that.

Oh I’m sure. They are. Including me. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Joo Se Hyuk is the second best chopper in the world now IMO, behind Ma Te of China. Still, I love JSH. Comparing Jian Li or Juan Liu to Angela Guan is like comparing Wei Wang or Lily Zhang to Crystal Wang. They are just different levels all together. Apples to watermelons. Angela Guan is...

I also hit "other." My favorites are either retired or lesser known. My current favorite is Satoshi Aida (WR 154). He is a double inverted chopper with a ferocious 2 winged attack! Currently playing in the Swedish leagues. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1zs3LW-hYek My favorite choppers...

A LP blockers are rare period. LP choppers at 2300 are me common. Both are less common than double inverted because they are less popular with fewer coaching resources. "Stability" is exactly how I would describe most LP choppers at that level. Just watch Angela Guan for an example of LP...

Hello. I have it in 1.5mm as a chopping sponge on my chopping setup. It's relatively fast as is, and is quite bouncy, with decent dwell. Sponge degree is similar to the Xiom Vega Europe, with less speed...but with a Chinese top sheet and shorter pips. I have not tried it in Max or 2.0mm. in...

I have seen this match several times and I don't think it's boring. I think it's very tactical and fun to watch. Loops aren't the only thing in TT. That being said, the reason this match ended up this way is because she's (as you said) an anti chopper and Don (~2300 at the time) is a...

Or you can ignore me and do what Der_Echte said. LOL

All people want acceptance even if consciously you don’t think you do. It’s human nature...psych 101. That includes all of us. So instead of lambasting the guy for his “fragile ego” let’s try to be understanding and simply help. I think it’s important to spread understanding. People are...

The easiest way is have them watch 2500+ level players practice in person. Video never conveys the power, athleticism, and speed of the game. Even I was surprised at the power of two 2800 level players at the teams... Lubomir Jankaric (sp?) vs the chopper from the French team...

Where are the videos Firman?

Did he cho?

The smart money is on ML to get his revenge. I hope not. I hope Harimoto destroys him 4-0 and wins every game 11-1, and then goes and kicks his coach in the shins. I'm kidding about the shin strikes, but TT needs some parity, badly.
