Hi, this is Simeone from Italy, currently living in London UK.

I started playing a bit seriously at the age of 10 and stopping at 15. Now i'm 40 and the passion exploded again after seeing some matches online and at the Olympic Games. Thanks to the slow-motion capture technology of replays it is so nice to see how players perform hits/spins/chops/blocks and get a feeling of their immense technique.

Im currently not playing for any club, i plan to join one soon, there are plenty here in London although i think i need to scratch off some dust and rust coming from 25 years of inactivity first.

No great achievements so far to be mentioned, some participations in minor local tournaments when i was 12-13.

I am indeed extremely interested in the technology behind this sport, so i might join you guys in certain discussions. Happy to be in what seems the biggest and most populated table tennis forum

Hello!

My name is Danilo and I'm 28 years old. I'm from Brazil!

I started playing about 2 years ago in a club named Kenzen, only once a week. But in the last 6 months I have started practicing twice/week (ok, that's still not much haha). Sadly I can't practice more times due to time/money issues. Even so, I want to improve my game as much as possible.

I haven't any achievements yet, as I don't compete. I don't have plans yet to play competitively (in amateur leagues, of course), for now what I most want is to get better to be able to enjoy more the matches, to be able to play with powerful and beautiful strokes away from the table (and not push rallies which is what happens most of times at my level haha). Recently I have been trying to flip all short backspin serves to avoid starting a push rally. I miss most of the times, but at least the games turns to be more fun when I hit correctly.

I really like the comments of the experience people of this forum. I hope to learn a lot here.

Edit: some infos about me and my setup:

- I'm left handed
- grip: shakehand
- Blade: DHS PG7
- FH rubber: Rasant Beat (I saw Dan's review, and it really helped me to chosse this rubber. I wanted more speed than my previous (Mark V) but whithout lose much control to help me develop correctly my strokes)
- BH rubber: FX-P (I have more confidence in my BH than my FH. Even so I have chosen another soft rubber, because I was afraid of the racket being incontrolable with MX-P and even EL-P)

PS: I don't know if there are many gramar errors in my post. Please feel free to point out if I made any big mistake. My english is not very good despite the fact that I studied it for some years.
