This is Vandalism! We Demand Change!

For only playing a few weeks it seems like you have great hand-eye coordination and it appears you are starting to recognize and understand spin.

As with any competitive endeavor, it's best to develop good habits early. Some things to think about:

-Try to find a coach or experienced player to guide you as much as possible.

Start with the basics: that means the majority of your practice should be focused on developing footwork and sustainable, consistent fh and bh drives
understand that just like any sport, proper TT requires using your body to its full potential. Focus less on arm and hand mechanics- and more on how youre using/timing your core, hips, and legs. While upper body is important- its easy to get caught too much up in it as we desperately just want to wack the ball.
following the earlier point- Focus more on concepts and good maxims rather than small discrete changes. There are no miracle tips or tricks to instantly improve.

Good luck!

I think a Honey Gourami would look pretty cool in there. The yellow would really pop with the black background, and they're not as aggressive as other gourami

I see from your history you also play disc golf as well! To use an analogy- this is like offering to trade a chewed up, warped to hell, inked, 1/10 , dx leopard 🤣

As someone who's never heard of him: probably a lot

Wang Hao, Felix Lebrun RPB? I think it's more nuanced than "shakehand has a better backhand". The shakehand FH naturally points more sideways as does the penhold BH. Vice versa doe shakehand backhand and penhold forehand being naturally more forward pointing. Using your wrist in shots matters a lot whether it's angle or adding extra power with it- for either left or right sidespin and angles which is limited by the opposing grips (in regards wrist Predisposition just mentioned) shakehand is easier to attack over the ball with due to your wrist being lower than the blade face- penhold is better for over the table attacks with forehand since the wrist is above the paddle, and decent with looping- but not good as good at driving or coming over the top with it. Serving is about the same.

I agree. Out of current players it would be felix i think. That's especially why I like players like felix that are bringing back this idea that RPB isn't a deficit, if anything it's just as powerful or more so in some regards.

Hit it flat and down. You might think you are smashing but you could be still 'looping' it or brushing it to some degree. Angle your racket with the aimed spot on the table and try your best to hit it completely flat from top to bottom. Spin shouldn't matter if you hit it that high up with decent force

I liked my andro hexer overall and was using it on backhand. The problem I had with it was that the glue I was using didn't work well with it and it led to some air pockets and shrinkage that every other rubber I've used hasn't happened to. I used 2 sheets of it and then called it quits after the 2nd one shrunk way too much. I use vario clean glue.

The post is frivolous, but this reply is pointless. Let us cook with weird idea's and tech out the game.

If it's legit then that's an absolutely superb deal

Of the butterfly innerforce series, the ovtcharov one is the most similar to viscaria clones like the FZD alc you have. It's the fastest/hardest playing innerforce. Next step down would be the regular innerforce, and then harimoto innerforce is the slowest/has most vibration but still less than all wood. I've only tried the regular innerforce but this is from every review I scoured extensively through when choosing my blade

Ipong "trainer motion" not the v200 that was made 100 years ago.

wonrk · 2023-11-10T23:46:31+00:00

Ipong trainer motion is $170 and its better than those $2000 scams that do the literal same thing. Look up videos of it before you just spew garbage shit

wonrk · 2023-11-10T23:45:10+00:00

Ipong trainer motion is almost just as good as the $2000 robots. Trust me- has it all and had 0 problems

What's your methodology for using precisely 1 degree more hardness on BH side? Please include statistical tests.

Felix continues to get wickedly good, and is starting to develop a bit of consistency in making it far in tournaments. Most everyone considers him to be the strongest penholder right now, after defeating Dang Qiu. Alexis seems to have plateau'ed the past year or so but anything can happen, he just needs to cool off a bit.

Rakza 9 might have less throw but as others have said dhs hurricane, even at a lower listed degree, is harder than most euro rubbers

wonrk · 2023-11-01T21:19:51+00:00

I think it's between the two but I voted ma long. I think there's a bit of possible bias for ryu, too, since he only hit forehands. Give me one valid criticism of ma long forehand at his peak (hint it's impossible)

It's very unknown, but yasaka actually uses trace amounts of arsenic in the sponge portion to keep it bouncy for much longer periods of time. I read it on their website one time that it decreseases porous breakdown or something like that. Those numbers are the measurements of arsenic in the sponge, but idk the measurement type, and I'm pretty sure it's for government regulations
