  1. Coolest looking table tennis blade?

    Stiga Emerald. The design is so elegant.
  2. Should ittf take additional measures to slow the game down?

    The problem with these changes made is that they were made to make Table Tennis a "watchable prime time sport," where in fact it really is not. ITTF is trying so hard to market it as a "prime time" sport but the game's mechanics is so hard to appreciate for an average sport fan/viewer. The game...
  3. DHS PF4-50 Rubber

    I have tried it before. It's really great, specially when boosted. I can compare it to Yinhe Jupiter 2. My problem with is the control quality, the top sheet separates from the sponge easily, but for its price I can't really complain. It's just that I don't want to be replacing rubber every...
  4. Power vs speed difference?

    Here's my take on Power vs Speed. Power= amount of force than can be generated by the racket to a non-moving/stationary ball if the swing force is constant. In game scenarios it's like having a chance ball floating in the air with no spin and minimal speed waiting to be smashed, how well will...
  5. DHS PF4-50 Rubber

    I have this at 2.0 on my FH boosted with 1 layer of Falco tempo long. It feels like Stiga Genesis M but with more gears. On my first week of using it, it feels great.. medium-hard sponge feel, and very tacky topsheet that's creates tons of spin. Unfortunately after three weeks it started to...

  10. Dignics 09c, available April 1st 2020

    By the looks of his game I think he's using T05H. There would be a drastic change in his style and techniques if he's using this T09c, but I don't see him playing like a chinese player so.... I don't think Dima is usi g it either.
  11. Just curious how many Penholders are on TTD?

    I tried letting him open up first but the problem is he will just push the ball when he can, making me impatient which ended up me opening up first. But i the case were he opened up first, he loop the ball short on the table forcing me to go close to the table to counter it (in which I am very...
  12. Just curious how many Penholders are on TTD?

    @OSP Thank you so much for that very detailed advice. It may take sometime for me to take it all in but I will digest it none the less. I really appreciate it. I think you were right, my form is a bit awkward and unorthodox for most. I tend to lunch forward with my whole body during a stroke...
  13. Just curious how many Penholders are on TTD?

    Hello PHers!! I need some advice. I'm a Jpen player w/ RPB. My problem is I struggle against allrounders, players who blocks a lot and attacks with slow shots. Creating my own power is not really my strength, I'm more of a counter looper from mid distance which relies on opponents power in...
  14. Joola Rhyzer 50

    How was the topsheet? Is it harder or softer than rasanter r50? What rubber with 50 degree sponge hardness has the softest topsheet? Thanks.
  15. Penholders, I need your advice

    I agree, SH puts a lot of strain on my wrist also. Please don't be a pure RPB player, those guys are bound to fail (I'm looking at you Xue Fei). Mix TPB and RPB on you BH to create variations. And most importantly your FH must be your main weapon. If you can side step to hit the ball with your...
  16. JPen Advice

    Speaking of advice, I'm also looking for my first hinoki jpen. As you can see I'm using a 10.5mm american cypress, the good thing about it is that its soft, light, and powerful (OFF+) speed but the downside is that it's hard to maneuver due to its thickness and american cypress kinda reacts a...
  17. Table Tennis Penhold Engagement Survey

    Agree, Xue Fei is more comparable to Wong Chun Ting than Wang Hao in my opinion. Both XF and WCT play with too much BH, heck there are even times when the ball is the FH side yet they will still move around just to hit it with the RPB. I believe RPB is somehow misused by today's modern PH-ers...
