  1. Ovtcharov using a blue sponged rubber on the fh!

    I've now checked the women's final I recorded and no bat close ups of the kind as recalled. Shan is a SP penholder, Seo a defender and no sign of the mystery blue sponge rubber which just leaves the Ovtcharov-Apolonia semi which I'll need to watch on ittv update: Just reviewed the semi -...
  2. Ovtcharov using a blue sponged rubber on the fh!

    Ok I watched the recording I had of the final, which had found it's way into the deleted folder - no close ups of Dima's bat like I recall, so it was definitely in the semi vs Apolonia, which I didn't record I just watched a bit of it before going out. If the recording is on ittv I'll have a...
  3. Ovtcharov using a blue sponged rubber on the fh!

    Can't believe it's not showing in my recordings, damn TiVo boxes. Will have a proper check later in deleted items.
  4. Ovtcharov using a blue sponged rubber on the fh!

    I recorded some of the match, will check it
  5. Ovtcharov using a blue sponged rubber on the fh!

    I saw the blue sponge too, no doubt about it. I think it was in the semi vs Apolonia
  6. When Table Tennis gets Angry ! HD

    We are not machines. Its human nature, although thankfully most players take it out on the ball
  7. Michael Maze - Road to recovery 2014

    I'm looking forward to seeing Maze in tournaments ripping those crazy sidespin BH like no one else can, with his great great allround game. Makes TT a pleasure to watch. Don't forget he almost claimed the Bronze in 2012 Olympics and wasn't anywhere near his best even then. I have a feeling he...

    Nice compilation thanks, Go Samsonov!
  9. Best Shot's of the Year 2013 (POLL)

    Top 3 for me are Szilard, because he is pinned into his backhand corner and the distance away from table, the angle, the fact he is returning a smash - unbelievable. 2nd Robinot and 3rd Habeshon. I love how the other guy shouts YO!! And then sees the ball coming back from Robinot - priceless.
  10. Hello from Leeds UK

    I play in Leeds league, Ive played at Dewsbury TT Centre, it's is a very good place to train and receive coaching, they have some very good players.
  11. Gym traning to improve table tennis skills ( WITHOUT TABLE)

    I train at the gym - I recommend anything that improves cardio and the muscles used in TT but muscle building or building mass is not necessary and perhaps counterproductive. TT requires fast short movements, good reflexes/footwork, good core strength and powerful legs will also help. Leg work -...
  12. Tibhar Stratus Power Wood + T80 ??

    Its a nice combination, I used T80 for a while on the SPW, plenty of spin. I went back to using Omega IV Pro as prefer the lower throw and is better for smashing, less bouncy.
  13. Zhang Jike switched to Tenergy 05-FX!!

    ZJK was struggling with his BH in recent tournaments before WTTC - Maybe he decided to use the 05fx for extra control and dwell time. I seem to remember him missing a lot of his flicks and drives on BH (going into net) in the previous tournaments. Also, as it is slower perhaps he thought the...
  14. Can Michael Maze still reach the top 15 ?

    He is still ranked 18 I think so definitely can get in top 15 and can be top 10, remember even with little play and injuries he was a whisker from beating Ovtcharov in Olympics QF last year, if he can recover from his injury problems he can have a few more good years. It is unfortunate he had so...
  15. alterntative to Butterfly Power Drive (original)

    Tibhar Stratus Powerwood is a good high quality 5 ply off- rated but plays more like Off speed blade, it is similar to Korbel but much better Flared handle and half the price of Butterfly, great balance, not head heavy with Tenergy
