my special rubber

well obviously....that's why pros play with their own style of rubber that they are used to...

but rubbers are only going to make so much of difference...

lets say boll did switch to 729...then he trains another 3 years with 729 rubbers....he will be back to national level once he adapts to the rubber....simple.

well, I think it does not matter that much at our level of play.  the pros can just grab a piece of scrap wood and beat the hell out of us.  imho.

I think Timo is playing with skills none of us will ever have. He could probably speedglue Flextra and kick some tail.

Due to a lot of complaints I'm going to have to ask all you guys to calm down. I do take post issues pretty seriously, and I'd like to remind you all this is a friendly forum. So let's go over a few things:

toell with world rankings, your table tennis players were pirated from china!!! and hello pls don't change the topic about me not accepting the philippines sucks in ranking it was never the topic here!!! the topic here from the start was about the fallacy of different sriver qualities differs from each country whic until now only a guy from malaysia said that there were differences and many have agreed to my topic that there were no major differences on the srivers cept for the ones used by pros!!!! DON'T TRY TO CHANGE THE TOPIC WHICH I IN THE FIRST PLACE NEEVR SAID!! I NEVER COMPLAINED ABOUT THE PHILIPPIENS ABOUT OUR TABLE TENNIS PLAYERS RANKING I COMPLAINED ABOUT YOUR STUPID POSTS ABOUT SRIVER QUALITIES!!! AND PLS YOU HAVE NOT ASNWERED MY QUESTION WHY IS IT ACCORDING TO YOU THAT THE RICHARD GONZALES OUR SILVER SEA GAMES SILVER MEDALIST WAS HIRED BY A SINAPOREAN CLUB BEING A LOWER RANKED PLAYER AND BEING FROM A "3RD WORLD TT COUNTRY" YOU'RE TRYING TO CHANEG THE TOPIC AND PUTTING WORDS INTO MY MOUTH!!

WHO THE HELL CARES...THIS THREAD WAS HIGHJACKED A LONG TIME AGO BY forehandchop and yogi_bear!!!

actually you didn't get my question FHC, y did a singapore approached richard gonzales who is acc. to from a 3rd world TT country.. pls take note richard gonzales wasn't the one who applied for that club in singapore he was the one who was asked to play.. actually the phil. men's team hires players from china as practice partners and yes they don't prefer singapore.. it only happened that a singapore club first approached and hired him to play.. if im goign to use your way of thinking then it would be an insult to your country since a 3rd world TT country like the philippines will let one of ts national players play in one of your singapore clubs

Since the question is thrown at me, let me answer. I dont know why they hire Richard Gonzales, but Richard Gonzales has definately benefited from playing in Singapore.

We should arrange a match between people supporting "singaporean advance, all be it 3rd world, sriver" vs "4th world sriver for the rest of our poor souls". and I hope the "4th world sriver" wins...... sad. we should settle this the old fashion way! (I mean it as a joke and pls don't be offended)

wait did u just claim that BTY would bother to separate all their sheets into so many batches and ship them to Singapore becuz ur a TT advanced country?

unless u got the freaking edge of the huge sponge layer, i doubt ull have much difference between the commercial versions out there, thats the advantage of paying more for BTY, they're more consistent and even if they are slight variation, claiming country segregation is one of the most non sense comment I've seen

 

I find it funny how forehand chop always manages to piss people off lol.

Listen, I'm not looking for any arguments.
 I probably would have skipped this topic  if it had been the first topic that was turned into an online food fight. But this is definately not the first topic that this has happened.
I don't get it, why do you insist on accusing me? I haven't even questioned your theory.

maybe we could arrange a thread where all of you could argue back and fourth and triple post all you want.
Quite frankly, I'm pretty sick of all these threads I'm interested in turning into blatant accusations at one another.
I'm not making personal accusations, I just don't wanna see two people triple posting back and fourth and acting like 5 year olds.
Am I the only one who feels this way?

i understand why  h3 is inconsistent, but not the srivers.
