haha thanks, actually our doubles win was totally unexpected if you meet Terry again in Sunway club, you can ask for the full story Credits must be given to Terry for his effort. At one point he was down with leg cramp... he still manage to continue and help to win the doubles at our final game. Besides that, he also his long pimples rubber for the second time... already huge impact on the games.

not sure of his full name. But he is a very nice fellow.

where paramount ah ? I never been there before. I cant wait to try out my new backhand rubber... can you believe it, I decide to put on a midium-pips.

chernloon, for non members... go there need to pay fees to who ah ? or do they need any form of registration.

By the way, how to become a member ?

thanks

too bad, I cant make it

I never played with chernloon or the Union Club before, hopefully one of these days I can go there and have some games with you people

K2002, I think I am far more worse than you. I have decided to slow down myself even further, I changed backhand rubber with pimples. Anyway, good to see a lot of people are improving. I think if I play now, I sure kena teruk.

I still have one unopened/uncut Black Gambler Outlaw 2.2mm with me ( last time I bought 2 pcs ). If you are planing to buy, you might want to consider buying mine. I can sell it to you cheap because I wont be using it anymore. I use black on my backhand, which is now a Palio WP1013 ( medium pimple rubber ).

Last time, I use gambler outlaw on my backhand while my forehand is Bryce speed ( before that, I use Bryce FH, Bryce BH ). There is some similarity between Outlaw and Bryce, low throw angle, good for blocking and driving. I use Outlaw on my backhand because Bryce was becoming too expensive, cannot afford BH and FH Bryce.

Only recently, I decide to switch my backhand to medium pimple, I am getting lazy nowadays So I do not need my 2nd Gambler Outlaw which is still unopened in original packaging. Unfortunately I have given away my old Outlaw, if not I can let you try that one.

I am currently using Butterfly Kong Ling Hui Special blade with FH=Red Bryce Speed 2.1 and BH=Black Palio WP1013

Added on February 27, 2011, 12:36 amMost people are using waterbased glue nowadays. I have been using this one lately http://www.presports.com/xiom-ibond-water-...25g-p-1236.html

although initially looks expensive but it is very long lasting. Balance glue wont dry up like our old glue.. can keep for a long long time.

Ding

Anyway nevermind, maybe one of these day we will play together... normally table tennis players in Klang Valley will eventually meet

Nobody will be as rusty as me... hahaha... I stop playing since 1994, then stars playing again from 2004, then stop again in 2006... Since 2006, until today I played not more than 10 times, 2-3 hours max each time. The last time I played was during that time I join u guys few month back. I only keep myself in touch with table tennis by bouncing ping pong ball with my bat against the wall Even though I dont play, the EJ in me never dies... guess what, I just bought a new blade.

Yep, I love to come and try out my new blade and rubber combination.

I am downgrading myself again... in the past I use Butterfly Sardius blade with speed glued rubber ( I was a very aggressive attacker when I was young ), because of cerear, I stop playing for more than 12 years... When I make a come back after 12 years break, I have a lot of trouble with my Sardius, so I switch softer and slower offensive blade, Butterfly Kong Ling Hui Special ( KLHS ) blade with Bryce Speed on both sides. Unfortunately still cannot cope.

So now, I slow it down further to with a softer China made Blade with Inspirit Quattro on the forehand and Palio WP1013 pimples on the backhand. This blade is quite similar to KLHS blade ( both have two aramid/carbon inner layers ). The difference is that, KLHS is using Hinoki wood for top play while this China made blade uses Ayous wood for top ply ( Ayous wood is softer than Hinoki wood ). Hopefully this will be my final setup... I hope I do not have to end up using both sides pimples

I am now selling off my KLHS blade because I cant use it with pimples, it becomes too light. With normal rubber on both side KLHS weighs around around 175g ( just nice ), but with one side pimple it weighs only 162g... too light for my likings.

My sales topic is on another forum. http://www.pp4m.com/v2/distribution/viewto...php?f=13&t=2876

Maybe you might want to consider buying my second hand Kong Ling Hui Special blade. Still in very good condition and less than 2 years old. I offer you RM180, if you want to nego further, PM me.

You can do anything with this blade... Good for controlled game and also for powerful attacking game. This blade is quite light, so any rubber will suit, except for spongless pimples... it might be too light ( that is the reason why I am selling it, switch to a heavier blade ).

No need to buy Sriver anymore nowadays, there are alot of alternative china produced rubber out there which is alot more cheaper and plays more or less the same like Sriver.

There are many... one that I have used recently is Dawei Inspirit Ultra Light, behaves almost like Sriver. Friendship also have few rubber that behave like Sriver, if I can remember correctly one of them is callled Higher. Most of them will cost you below RM50. There are many others as well.

hey, I am joining this table tennis tournament. Very intersting tournament.

Anyone also can join without worrying about being trashed, even beginners. If you are an above average player there is also no guarentee that you will have an easy time even when playing against weaker players.

http://www.pp4m.com/v2/distribution/viewto...2542&start=1170

its on the next Saturday 23 / 04 / 2011, 5pm onwards...

still got 1 week to train Just join lah... Most likely I will be going to the tournament without a single match practice since the last time I played a friendly game, 4-5 month ago. I have not been been playing actively since 2006. For the past few years, I think I played a total of less than 10 times, max 1-2 hours each. So you can see how rusty I will be. However, I practice on the walls almost every day for the past few years, only dont have real game practice.

Worse of all, I just changed my entire bat setup 2 weeks ago... last time I used Butterfly Kong Lin Hui Special with Butterfly Bryce Speed on both sides, my new setup is a Galaxy V15 blade with medium tacky rubber ( Red Diamond ) and a Palio Pimple rubber at the backhand. This setup is totally different from what I have last time with a huge difference in playing characteristic... I only hope I will be able to cope with it.

Yep, that page is quite messy... hopefully can try to help him to get organized. Just send a private message to the organizer "Rambo_Malaya" ... I already confirmed my participation.

Chernloon want to join or not ?

The competition topic has been updated, now with location map and also past results in the first 2 pages.

Good thing about this game is that, even though u are a beginner.. you dont have to worry being trashed. Because this game is based on handicap system where weaker players are given points before start of game. For advanced player also good because when you meet weaker players you have to work harder to avoid losing as well. Weaker players and Advanced player have equal chance to win.. even the tournament itself.

If you see from past results, alot of beginners did quite well in the competitions.

Dont worry about 1/2 year never touch blade, just come and join the fun. I am worse than you.. I stop playing from 1994 until 2004 ( stop for 9-10 years )... then played actively again from 2004 to 2005... but stop again in 2006. I have not been actively playing since 2006 ( another 4-5 years did not play ).

For the past few years, once a while I do join people for friendly games ( less than 10 times, max 2-3 hours each ). Even for this tournament I have zero real game practice. I only practice on my house walls, I am quite good with the walls ... so not sure how it will become during the real game in the tournament. Worse still I am already 42 yrs old, so everything will not be same like when I was younger. So, for you... nothing to worry about.

I guess the closing date will be on the tournament day itself.

if you are interested better sms the organizer or reply on the topic fast because there are limit on how many people can join, normally it will be full before the tournament day.

That will be great
