  1. "wrapping" the ball.

    Another very small slight wrap by Timo in a low and slow topspin loop from his heavy topspin video: start open -> end closed and lin yun-ju with a updated 2.0 wrappier forhand that starts a bit lower and more open. He used to have a very "straight" loop technique...
  2. "wrapping" the ball.

    Here is an extreme example of "wrapping" the ball (start with open blade, end with closed blade) by Waldner. It worked I guess :cool: Brokenball, may you reiterate what your questions are again, and maybe I can offer my take on them? Thanks.
  3. "wrapping" the ball.

    The key is to not think to hard about it. If thinking about "wrapping" the ball makes you have more consistency, control, and spin, go for it. If it doesn't make sense (to me I am not too fond of this word), then don't worry about it. I think it is just a word to describe a feeling of how to...
  4. Wait for tackiness to wear off?

    That is really weird, in my experience STN is not a backhand rubber.
  5. Wait for tackiness to wear off?

    That's unfortunate that you don't like it. I find looping against chop or push perfectly fine. Different strokes for different folks I guess.
  6. Wait for tackiness to wear off?

    Hurting your arm is a bit alarming, I have tried bad rubbers but never something that has hurt my arm. Give it a several more sessions to get used to, trust me it will break in. Also it sounds like you need to adjust your technique to use the rubber. Keep a closed bat angle with good brush...
  7. Wait for tackiness to wear off?

    Yes, don't boost Stn, after a bit it will break in and turn into an ultra grippy state and then you will have a deadly spin and consistency machine, no booster needed. Just got Jupiter 3 in, going to try it out soon.

    Thanks Turbo!
  9. WTT Singapore Smash 2023

    Well, it certainly is a bit unorthodox. It is an unwritten rule to be respectful to your opponent by waiting until they are in their ready position. IDK if they serve fast out of habit or if it is an explicit tactical thing to throw off the opponent. I play against a really fast and low toss...
  10. WTT Singapore Smash 2023

    Would one of you guys know which live stream video (or link to video) they played on so I can go back and watch the full match?
  11. USTTA rating v.s. expected win-rate

    The quadratic regression was correct given the data and for that range, and does what it is supposed to do (give you an expected value for that range). Thus the confusion when you called it "wrong". But you are right, logistic regression is the proper regression to use here, as it accurately...
  12. Yinhe rubber variation?

    I think glue sheet is so you can use less glue yourself. I think the difference is probably the hardness. But the "dry" different top sheet is weird. As for color, maybe a qc issue with how much coloring they put in for the different batches? I agree with Tony that this is an anomaly, the...
  13. Welcome to TableTennisDaily 3.0 - Bug Report

    Dan, small issue. When transitioning from full screen to a narrower column, there is a small portion where it looks like this: It is fine after shrinking the width enough, but there is just a small bit inbetween where it looks like this.
