I'm wondering why not many players use the 'tomahawk' serve as it seems effective in serving at different angles from the middle of the table and can be disguised quite well in order to get a weak return. Are there any main reasons or disadvantages of using at?

Since I have a table tennis robot at home, I am wondering if the new poly balls will be compatible or not with the robots suited for the current celluloid balls. Or possibly new robots will be made suited for poly balls? If anyone has any knowledge about this or possibly tried the poly balls in...

Speed helps hitting fast winners off the table but can easily be countered and Spin is very consistent and can win points when unable to counter over the ball. What do you guys think?

Yesterday I played someone who was ranked higher than me but I felt I still should have beaten him. For the first few games I won fairly comfortably but later he changed his tactics to just serving long topspin to the corner of my backhand side. My backhand is more of a off the bounce wristy...

I am trying to make my setup as light as possible and I'm wondering if there is a weight difference between straight and flared handles. I prefer flared as it feels more comfortable but if its heavier than straight I might as well go for that. What do u guys think?

Many rubbers are suited to go well with certain blades but what do you think?

Do u guys think Zhang Jike will pull out another title like he has done at the WTTC or do you think his rival teammates will overcome him. In big events it seems he performs at his best but what about back at his home crowd?
