We are lucky because there are not many good short pips player in the country. If you got a chance to play against a good short pips player, you will understand what I meant by "nasty".

The problem is short pips is that the strength of their return is hard to predict, they can choose to produce spin or not to produce spin. For example if you do a strong bottom spin to them, they can flick it to produce more spin or produce a dead ball. If you do a strong top or top side to them, they can spin it back to you or just "whack" a high speed dead ball back to you. After that, very difficult to estimate how much spin to put in to send the ball back because it could be a dead ball or a spinny ball and because it is so fast, we have very little time to figure out what to do, very often I just return it back by pure luck.

haha... hope I don't make it sounds like short pips is the best rubber out there. Actually short pips are very hard to master and not as deadly when they are away from the table. Most of the time they will refuse to move away from the table. So, I would normally play low deep ball placement try to push them away. Unfortunately some of them combine short-pips with another inverted rubber, they can still well play away from the table, soon they will try to find their way back to the table. Try see how Liu Guo Liang play with it or more recent player like Li Jia Wei of Singapore and Mima Ito of Japan.

wah, looks like SP is making a come back, so many of you are on SP. I better stay away.... haha just kidding. Even though SP is very tempting, I stick to my inverted rubber

are there many people using SP in forum 19 ?

I am very tempted to go there to play table tennis too bad now almost 50 yr old and more away for more than 20 years of active table tennis will be very rusty. The last game I had few month back, only my service is still functioning, the rest are shooting at everything else except for the table

does anyone know if there is any table tennis tournament in Subang Jaya/Petaling Jaya or Shah Alam area.

u are becoming a regular there already. I am abit lazy to travel there, I was hoping to find somewhere nearer to my home here in Subang.

I posted this few days ago, I am not sure still got stock or not. You can try message the seller for details.

These are new tables used just for few days. Instead of renting table tennis tables for tournament, the tournament organizer buy new table for the tournament and after tournament, they sell them off. Cost wise, it is as good as renting tables and at the same time participants get to use new tables in tournament... and at the same time, some people will benefit from buying discounted "new" table tennis tables.

do you know where to get cheap 40+ training ball ? I saw some cheap ones on shopee but dare not buy from them, scare fake balls. I have seen some fake table tennis ball, so bad that it cant even bounce.

oh good, can help check for me 100 pcs training ball how much ? thanks

oh thanks I will check the presports.

What type of ball people normally use for training ? last time when I was active playing was the 38mm ball. Maybe I should get the 40+ to practice. The 3 star is a bit expensive for 100pcs, so I am thinking of 1 star balls. Not sure which brand is good. I dont want to end up buying 100pcs of balls that is out of shape/weight and cant bounce properly to ruin my training. I want to make comeback, next year I can even play in the veteran category haha..

scare if behaviour is too far from the regular 3 star ball, may have very bad effect on training.

wah dont scare me.

wah... another person coming back to play nice

thanks for the info, very cheap.

argh.. damm, looks like I am the only one all talk, do nothing ... must find way to go and play

ya it is true

even though it is just a game, winning and losing is part of the game winning is an added bonus to the fun losing is the drive to chase after that bonus Just imagine if we don't play games, just hit the ball across the net to each other all day long, I think the game will just die off by itself. So hunt down all the "bosses" there
