  1. Brushing the ball is useless? (World champion FangBo‘s training class)

    Guys, I need some opinions. Just watched World champion FangBo‘s training class on Youtube, forehand and backhand topspins. And he said that the main problem with everybody at the club is that they try to brush the ball, which is useless. The main goal in topspin must be to hit through the...

  4. A request for the blade makers regarding a custom handle

    Upon suggestion of UpSideDownCarl I would like to ask if the TTDaily blademakers would agree to make a custom handle (just a handle, not a full blade) and ship to a little country in Europe? I have a 3D printer model file and the actual handle in plastic, need to make two copies of it in wood so...

  6. Need advice with selecting an OSP blade

    I need an advice in selecting a blade from OSP (custom handle), which would be similar to Stiga Rosewood V or Rosewood XO, if there is one. I'm looking for a hard-ish top ply, not bouncy, stiff-ish, non flexible, linear 5 ply blade (never tried 7 ply). If that matters, I would use it with...
  7. WTT full matches videos?

    Hi, is there a way to watch full matches of WTT Quatar event? On the wtt channel on youtube they have only highlights and streams of qualifications, but no semi finals, finals? So I registered on the wtt internet page, hoping to see those, but nope. And ittf bans videos on other youtube...

    So after watching the TTdaily video I plunged into the VR TT, but cannot find a paddle adapter for the controller, those from ebay, etsy or uk shops don't ship to Lithuania [emoji53]. Maybe somebody knows where to get one? Sent from my SM-N975F using Tapatalk
  9. A noobish question about the ball going beyond the table

    I had a chat with a more advanced player about playing with fast blades and bouncy rubbers and I am a bit confused if there are more ways to prevent the ball going too long beyond the table except my angle of the blade and the amount of topspin I create. Let's say a ball comes at me with...
  10. Rakza Z vs Free chack glue

    So after reading a few posts and watching some youtube videos I tried to remove the glue layer from a sheet of Rakza Z. Managed to get some off but destroyed the sponge in the process [emoji53]. Is that the glue, rubber or me to blame? By the way, the same glue came easily off the sponge of...
  11. Actual spin and speed values of common shots?

    Hi, I just got a programmable robot and trying to setup some drills. Do you guys have an estimate of the speed and spin of an intermediary player? For example a topspin with 3000 rpms and speed of 30 km/h - is that close to an actual shot? A long push would be slower, I guess... but how much...
  12. Help with ordering a custom handle from OSP blades

    Hi, so I just got my Virtuoso OFF- and really love the blade, but the handle feels too thin. To order a custom handle they require to upload a CAD file or drawing. Does anybody have some experience with that? What dimensions should I provide? I simply want them to copy a Stiga Legend handle...
  13. Please suggest a backhand rubber with less catapult effect than Rakza 7 soft

    Hi, I know it's the technique, not the rubber, but maybe some rubbers are easier to use when working on a certain technique? I just got a chance to get some group coaching sessions and we are working on the backhand topspin against backspin - I have a very hard time lifting the ball with the...
  14. A Chinese rubber: first blood :)

    Hi all, I just bought a sheet of DHS Hurricane 3 Neo - it's my first acquaintance with Chinese rubbers. I have an immediate question - do all of them have this stench? My room smells, my hands smell, my kitchen smells from the cut-offs of the rubber in the garbage bin :D Also, any tips for...
  15. Can't find an answer to a question about a TT serving rule

    Hi, please help me to answer a question about one of the serving rules, I cannot find the answer, neither by googling it nor in the ITTF handbook. Let's say during the service I toss the ball upwards and miss it completely - the ball drops on the floor untouched by the bat. Is this a fault and...

  18. Opinions regarding flexible/stiff - hard/soft blades for a beginner

    Hi, I’m looking for opinions regarding flexible/stiff - hard/soft blades for learning techniques. I’m a newbie, hungry for information about the equipment and techniques. I’ve been playing (actually, more training than playing) for about 4 months now. In these 4 months I tried 4 blades – first...
  19. Service practice time?

    Hi, there's a question I've been curious about for a while: during a practice session of e.g. 2 hours, when is it more effective to practice my serves? I usually allocate about half an hour for them, but should I do it in the beginning, when I'm still not warmed up? In the middle? Or after the...
  20. Something a bit harder than Rakza 7 for the FH?

    Hi, equipment gurus! Could you recommend a rubber a little harder than Rakza 7 but with good control and best for FH looping? Simply theoretically, because I am stuck with my Xiom Intro for a while :) Being a noob I bought 4 Rakza 7's for the price of 3 - you know, just in case :D I still hope...
