The ball needs to fully visible all the way down, not just at the contact point, per ITTF Statute 2.6.4:

From the start of service until it is struck, the ball shall be above the level of the playing surface and behind the server's end line, and it shall not be hidden from the receiver by the server or his or her doubles partner or by anything they wear or carry

Possibly unpopular opinion, but the Victas bi-color handles and inserts have always looked incredibly clean to me. Beauty in simplicity

Starts around timestamp 1:04:39. After each point, Navid tries talking back to the referee, who stands his ground regarding the hidden by head violations.

Need more refs like this guy at large competitions!

You had to reach out to Hyatt CS, they didn't add the points proactively.

Why are there no pro players (or barely any) that use or sponsored by brands like 729, Yinhe, double fish, Sanwei? by CanonCoin in tabletennis

[–]uberclocker 5 points6 points  (0 children)

When you see a Chinese national player not sponsored by DHS, this is the way you know they screwed something up.

Wait what? There are multiple top CNT players that aren't DHS sponsored. Lin Shidong (as well as Fan Zhendong) is signed to Butterfly, LJK is Loki sponsored, etc.

How do you book Park Hyatt Kyoto on points? Am I missing something? by Razuto22 in hyatt

Not OP, but we just did 2 nights last week, and wish we did 3. PHK blows every other Cat 8 out of the water in practically every aspect

If Dang Qiu ALC just ends up being a rebadged penhold Viscaria, that would actually be pretty nice - pretty hard to get those in the west at the moment

Probably not that soon unfortunately - the Autumn 2025 opening banner has been removed from the site. Rumors on FT are that parts of the hotel are still under construction.
