so it's friday afternoon, I decide to go to a place I've never been to....
I get there, start playing 5 mins later.
so eventually I stumble upon a guy I already knew who is a very good player, actually probably better than me.
He says he is there to coach a guy and we start talking and then playing.
We play a couple of matches.
At first I find it really hard to play against him, he's like a really good blocker who also hits flat a lot.
So when attacking maybe he'll loop one and flat kill the next one.
Also I was serving short and he was just pushing all over the place, then blocking and really it seemed he was doing nothing and still beating me easily.
Also he was like playing so close to the table, just all wrist stuff, I was getting so tired looping and looping and looping.
Started thinking "wtf am I doing?"
Later I start serving longer and things get a bit more even because I force him to attack or push longer so I have better chances.
Still really hard to deal with this player.
So the end of the story....
He mentions that for some reason another guy has his paddle.
So he's using a backup paddle, he used this in the last tournament he says.
So I look at the paddle.....
the blade is dhs w1010, a crappy 5 ply blade.
the rubbers both sides are butterfly flextra
wtf!!!!!
I had problems with his serves, with his looping, he's playing at a decent high level here and he's using that??????????????????????
Also I know this guy from when he started almost.
I used to beat him easily some years ago.
And now he comes with a w1010+flextra and gives me a really hard time even beating me????????????????????????????????
All my years of ejing destroyed in a matter of minutes....
