Hi guys, I thought I'd start a thread to get people to post professional players with their partners. I thought of this because one of our players, Paul Drinkhall is very close with his wife, Joanna Drinkhall (previously Parker). And what makes it even more special is the fact they were and...

I often see players like Dimitij Ovtcharov or Jun Mizutani sort of moan or grunt when hitting the ball. What is the purpose of this? Is it to distract their opponent or help them with their breathing when they are in a rally?

I have been an attacking "smooth rubber" player for some time now and have recently moved to short pimples on the backhand. I have a few questions: 1) What are specific tactics (or set-plays) which players with short pips try to implement? 2) What short pip rubbers do the top players use? Any...

A Quick survey for table tennis players Hello! A fellow ping pong player and friend of mine needs some information on the players of the table tennis community. This is for his AP Statistics project. It just asks how active you are, age, etc. By the way, if you don't live in the United...

This is something I have been thinking about for awhile. There is a very pervasive EJ assumption that you see on table tennis forums that it is always better to use a different rubber on BH than on FH, even for players who try to play a fairly standard two winged offensive game. I bought...

share videos of players who win not by machine ma long style but by serves, pushing, hiding spin, disrupting the game in different ways. these players need to use inverted both sides. they not need to be pros but are probably good in order to make all this tricks.

Hi guys, Just joined the community and wanted to introduce myself! My name is Susanne and been playing table tennis for about 2 years now, just as an hobby of course - nothing professional. However, just wanted to know if there's anyone here from Sweden or maybe even from my local table tennis...

Hey Pune TT players, I will be in your city for next couple of months on business and was wondering are there any good clubs in Pune where I can play regularly ? Looking forward to meeting wonderful people of Pune !!!

Keeping in high form regularly esp. vs worse players Hello. Perhaps my biggest problem right now is consistently playing at a sufficiently high level relative to my own max. It's not that I keep losing all the time because of my laziness, more so the opposite: I know I can win against the...

Hi guys, I was at a tournament at the weekend, and I was watching a guy play who is very good, but has a big arm swinging loop as opposed to a short compact topspin stroke. I tried to see what blade he was using, but missed him after he had finished. I was therefore wondering when a player...

Hello all, this is just a little something I have been thinking a while and just wondered what you all think. Is it fair that all Euro rubbers are numbered by the ITTF and anyone including the China team can buy them, use them, study them etc. I know the national players get the best of the...

I have noticed that many pros are changing from Bty Korbel to a Bty ZLF blade to combat the poly ball's slowness. I'm thinking of doing the same. I know there was an innerforce ZLF but its no produced anymore. So out of these blades which is the most similar to the IF ZLF? Liu Shiwen blade? Ai...

Hey, just thought what would be the head to head statistics of semifinalist ( I also added vlay vs Mallong) in this event. ITTF homepage offers a solution to this question. Just checked it out and the resutls were interesting and unexpected to me:confused: The link to the head to head stats...
