I think the ARB blade will be great to catch flies

 

[SpinWins]

Yes to all that carl said. He explain it better than me.

 

[Damion]

Why can't one generate spin and speed with the ARB paddle? I see is as being yet another paddle like c-pen or shake hands.

Prove to me you can generate more spin with your current paddle more than the ARB paddle. Prove to me you can generate more speed. It really is just a matter of what kind of paddle you are familiar. People play with shake hands paddle and c-pen paddles interchangeably. I have seen it. It does not make much difference to their style of play because that is more of a mental thing. It doesn't change their foot work or the ability to chose the right stroke at the right time.

I don't believe there is anything the ARB blade does to improve response or any other claims. It is just another paddle, no more no less. What is so wrong about the ARB paddle? Explain in terms of generating less spin or less speed.

The A.R.B Can generate much more Spin than a Normal Blade Because of the Whip like action possible from Flicking the Wrist! The Stability of the Grip helps a lot! Normal Blades are Top Heavy which off sets the Blade in such a way where Spin is lost! because of Instability.

The A.R.B Can produce more Speed because of the Full grip possible for that action! The Single finger on the face of the blade (Shake-Hold) can be a weakness and the wobbly off set Hold using the (Pen-Hold) can also be a weakness.

The A.R.B is more Responsive because of the Stability compared to the Instability of the (Shake-Hold) and (Pen-Hold) shown above, it is like the difference between driving an Old Car with dated Steering geometry and the Advances made to Modern Cars.

the future is obviously here, a lot of control for the ball who stays a long time in the racket



It removes all shortcomings of other grips.

I know, I am a genius inventor but I prefer no statue.

Your Intellectual ? Replies violoniste18 are digging a Bigger Hole of disbelief concerning your Character! the more you Post!
You Started on a High about the A.R.B ITTF Statue But now you have sunk to the Gutter basement level!

This is the ARB equivalent for the chopper , you can't cut your opponents throat if you lose , which you can do with ARB .

@ Pnachtwey: do you see? The purpose of Anthony R Brown's (aka Damion's) posts is to try and rile people up. Entertaining and funny for a while. But at a certain point it gets old and tiresome.

In fact, Pnachtwey, it seems you are arguing his case much more effectively than it seems he is capable of doing.

It's only bothersome and tiring if you even attend to it.


Pnatchwey is now the world's foremost expert on the ARB!

 

[Pnachtwey]

ARB doesn't bother me. By now you guys should know I am a skeptic and won't believe anything ARB says without proof just like I am critical of TT manufacture's lies about tensioned rubber. This thread could be short if people would just ask the tough question at the beginning instead of being critical without justification. Then there is the piling on effect by people that don't even know what questions to ask but are critical because other people are critical.

I said above, I have written a chess program and entered it into USCF tournaments so the chess part interests me. I also had a rating of 2057 which is just below master ( 2200 ) and I have the Chess program Hiarcs. I know what ARB is doing with his chess technique but it isn't original. I am still skeptical about ARB being able to beat those chess programs. ARB doesn't specify the time controls or level he set the chess computers too or even the CPU in the computers. Were those chess matches where ARB beat the computer played at a chess tournament? If the computer is allowed to search for an average of 3 minutes per move and ARB was playing against a fast computer then,crack pot or not, that is impressive.

As far as the ARB paddle generating more spin. I doubt it because my wrist will move or rotate only so fast. If I want more spin when serving I try to hit the ball near the tip of my paddle. The farther the contact point is from the axis of rotation for my wrist the faster the spin will be. It is simple. Now how does the ARB paddle make it possible to increase the distance between the contact point and the axis of rotation of my wrist? Inquiring minds want to know. Something that should be considered is that as paddle extends away from the wrists axis of rotation the moment of inertia around the axis of rotation will be higher. I don't think this is a big deal though. The ARB paddle is yet another paddle. I don't see any advantage yet and I know it will be more difficult to manufacture. i do think ARB has made claims he can't backup.

I really do like to see videos of people using the equipment they are pushing. As I said above I don't like the Dr N videos where they are just hitting balls back and forth.

The Der Materialspezialist video impresses me. See the equipment used under pressure.

These make me want to buy a sheet of Terminator.

 

[Baal]

Oh for Jeebus' sake, what tough question did you want asked that wasn't? The only important one was, "show us a video of the thing being used". No other question matters. And it was the first one asked and it has been asked repeatedly on three different forums. However, it is painfully obvious ARB or Damion or whatever this troll calls himself has no intention of responding to it, or actually having a meaningful interaction with players. What he gets out of this can only be known by his diseased mind.

I am personally about 99% certain that this blade is a terrible idea for a bunch of reasons not worth going into, but that leaves the 1% of doubt. That is space where I could be convinced by, you know, actually seeing how it is some sort of genius idea.

The guy has been banned deservedly. Piling on came later. Sometimes piling on is deserved. At a point the pile gets high enough and starts to smell.

IMHO, this thread has no reason to exist any longer.

I agree with everything except the last line. The thread gives him somewhere to pollute where he can be seemingly contained. Famous last words, eh?

 

[ttmonster]

Let me post the first video of ARB in action as I described , pardon me if you don't understand the background, these two guys played and could not determine the winner and hence started using ARB in martial arts to cut each other's throat .......... enjoy !

The A.R.B Paddle Generates more Spin from the Wrist because of the Action! Try Spinning a Ball from the Hand using only a Straight Hand movement without Bending the Wrist Now try Spinning a Ball from the Hand using the Wrist
The Stability Problem using a Normal Blade Cancels out the...(The farther the contact point is from the axis of rotation for my wrist the faster the spin will be)
You don't increase the distance between the contact point and the axis of rotation with the A.R.B because it's not needed the Wrist is more than enough! and again the further you get away from the Base point of a Spin Serve Etc. the Stability Problem kicks in
As far as the Manufacture goes! ? easily as easy as a Normal Blade

 

[Killerspintt]

I don't understand how you are supposed to feel the ball with this grip. The touch will be horrible, whatever the blade is, because of this grip. Go for the pistol design is you want more leverage effect to generate more spin.

The pistol design Suffers from the Trapped finger/fingers problem regarding the Hole in the Blade,which hinders a Players ability to Twist the Hand/Wrist (Just give your finger a Twist! and you will know how Restricting it can be )
Plus the Weight affects Speed & Mobility Where as the A.R.B is about the same Weight as a Normal Blade!

 

[Killerspintt]

I must be missing how you are supposed to handle your ARB grip then. Because from what I see, the ARB grip is even more restricting. And you are missing how the pistol design is supposed to be used, the "trapped finger" you are speeking about is in fact helping to achieve better wrist speed, yup you are supposed to use the trenght of the finger to achieve faster wrist speed.

You must understand that at very very very high level, the strenght of the finger is also used to achieve faster wrist speed, even with shakehand grip, the pistol grip makes it easier and more natural. And in fact, your ARB grip makes the strenght of the finger un-usable.

Here in this video :

If you understand french, the techincal level are describled at the end :
transmit the power via the elbow : ementary school technical level
transmit the power via the elbow + forearm : middle school technical level
transmit the power via the elbow + forearm + wirst : university technical level
transmit the power via the elbow + forearm + wirst + index finger : phd technical level

You grip makes un-usable the power of index finger (or any other finger), plus it destroy the touch.

Watch the video from 13:30, it speeks about the touch and technical level. You will undderstand why the ARB destroys touch.

Mr Zhen has trained various world champion (last one : wang hao), he is the undisputed reference of the training of U12 table tennis players.

Also here, from 7:30 : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8gCuf9tax3A
Its Mr Wang (a great coach, at the time of the video, he was still the coach of the legendary JM Saive), he also explain how it important to have a relaxed index finger for both touch and maximum power transmission : you lose both with ARB grip, at least with pistol grip you """"only"""" lose the touch part but keep the power transmission.

But I have the feeling that you won't understand what I'm saying since you are emotionally linked to this ARB grip. Emotions are killing objectivity.
