[Irfan87]

Holy crap. A Compantino comment where he ISN'T talking bull shit.

[DansTableTennisDaily]

@Irfan87 haha you legend :D

[kaikaz]

Was wondering what rubbers you both play with? I played with donic coppa silver in my FH but they dont make them anymore. Any suggestions? I'm playing with a primorac off- blade. Im now testing the tenergy 05 fx on my FH and I like it so far, I just have the feeling its slower than my donic silver rubber, is that possible? I tried all tenergy rubbers and they are all too hard for me, except for the 05 fx. What do you think is a decent FH rubber? Or should I just stick to the 05 fx? thx!

[DansTableTennisDaily]

@kaikaz Hey bro! sorrry for late reply lol...

Hey,,,, Im using Tenergy o5 here,, its great rubber but as you say its to hard for ya.. Hmm have you tried the other donic rubbers out? What about tenergy 64 thats a good one.. lots softer then 05...

Ive never tried the 05 fx but i think its just a matter of getting use to it... its what suits you really... your blade is great! i know lots of good players who use it :)

[drogiakabest]

the service is not impressing but good players

[tvseal0001]

blue dude sounds like hes getting raped haha

[kitmo123456789]

the serve all the same in all game~

[TableTennisDaily]

@Compantino i do watch him a lot,,, he is my favourite player... i just watched this again i see how you mean,, its kinda similar in a weird way lol

[kaikaz]

Can you beat Gavin Rumgay in a match? Because I think if im not wrong gavin is/was playing for a belgium team in highest division.

[DansTableTennisDaily]

@kaikaz nah i have no chance in match, yeah he was playing out there, but he is playing in the prem swedish elite this year :D

Dan

[Odieby]

I've seen Rumgay play in Belgium. Wasn't really impressed though;

His services are great but he misses a lot of topspins in the match.

But hey nice video, nice play. I wouldn't have done it better.

[DansTableTennisDaily]

@Compantino lol this has 8 thumbs up! you sure i play like him lol??? i have been told it before when i was young but not since lol... i try to copy like the way boll serves but and i do think of him when i play a backhand open up but thas it really lol.. explain wat u mean bro

[blkhwk737]

Pretty great quality on the video, and some quality players xD.

Nice shots there, and the opposite hand part, looks pretty much like real lefty, IMO. 5*

[DansTableTennisDaily]

@blkhwk737 i know its good isnt it lol.. and thanks dude :D

[marczzz10]

I can't find Gavin RUmgay in the world ranking

[DansTableTennisDaily]

[chubbasmalone]

Dan...looking pretty sharp man, I need some backhand practice like that, not in top form at the moment. Gabbie Geese

[DansTableTennisDaily]

[chubbasmalone]

Dan...looking pretty sharp there man! I need to practice some backhands like that I'm a bit out of form. Gabie Geese

[DansTableTennisDaily]

[gravedigger02]

Dan, you got some nice skills! :D

[DansTableTennisDaily]

@gravedigger02 thanks m8 :DD

[MiniDonbeE]

........ What do you clean your racquet with? Ive got a Hurricane 3 rubber and a skyline 2 on my paddle, theyve gotten real dirty, theres not as much spin as before..

[DansTableTennisDaily]

@MiniDonbeE ive been told just to use light water on a sponge,,, racket products in long rung ruin ur rubber

[dmacforMVP]

Dan did you hurt your back at some point? Your forehand looks a lot more compact than it did in some of your earlier vids.

[DansTableTennisDaily]

@dmacforMVP yh people have said that it looks more compact... this a good thing yeh??

i am back to square one,,, i thought my back was back to normal... however i started playing again,,, after i played in this vid... my back went terrible again,, havent played since :((( surgeons have told me i need to quit!! but will see what happens... im just going to rest and not play for a very long time :(

[CivilServiceTT]

Great vid ! The video quality is also amazing ! What camera do you use ?

[DansTableTennisDaily]

@CivilServiceTT thanks! my camera is this one :D 'ST550 Samsung'

[DansTableTennisDaily]

[TTridata]

I like your backhand.

[DansTableTennisDaily]

@TTridata aha thanks dude :D falcon punch hhaa!

[utahjai]

Wow world ranking? how do you achieve that? which club you play at?

[DansTableTennisDaily]

@utahjai you need to play for your country to get world ranking,,,

[DansTableTennisDaily]

@Compantino o yeah i understand,,, yeh for sure mate... its nuts,, how you have lots of junoirs who gain junoir ranking points and that boosts there senior ranks,,, but i think the rules are changing

[DansTableTennisDaily]

@Compantino Thanks for comment m8, yeah gavin enters lots of ITTF tournaments so hes a realistic rank

[GecaPhoenix]

1:45,great block! :D

The quality is amazing man!

[DansTableTennisDaily]

@GecaPhoenix ahah thanks man :D you should put a rally in one of your new vids :P

[GecaPhoenix]

I like this idea bro :D

You're welcome in my videos;D

[FailureE23]

why does he hit his foot on the ground?

[DansTableTennisDaily]

@FailureE23 hes beeen told to do that to help transfer the wait to the left side and to be more balanced... rather then having to much weight on the right side.. wel spotted ;)

[DansTableTennisDaily]

@Merrlol yeah he is,, good for the back

[bassebajs]

ur really good :D

[DansTableTennisDaily]

@bassebajs 

[jperssonisthebest]

i thought brittain was better than this

[DansTableTennisDaily]

@jperssonisthebest really? well we have drinkhall a top 100 player, i dont need to go through it but there on the rise... gav is only training here,,, match play is different story

[jperssonisthebest]

@DansTableTennisDaily so if he's just ttraining you can stil see there skills but he looks young so maybe he will advance and get a better rank

[DansTableTennisDaily]

@jperssonisthebest yeah true, i think he can be a 120 player once his backhand is like his forehand

[PixelatedCrack]

Quality vid cuz! Gav is quality

[DansTableTennisDaily]

@PixelatedCrack cheers bro!

[DansTableTennisDaily]

@saitohed thanks for advice,,, yeah i think your right... i find it hard to relax upper body but i need to think about this when i play :D n no worries bro

[librajulz]

That short service return and forehand flick to kill, love it!

[DansTableTennisDaily]

@librajulz hehe thanks :)

[Bollinger1984]

OMG that BH at 4:30 is so epic nice man

[DansTableTennisDaily]

@Bollinger1984 thanks man!

[Cashiii91]

Hello from German :) .. you play nice :) You are 2 talents :)

[DansTableTennisDaily]

@Cashiii91 :D

[scylla24]

@DansTableTennisDaily Hey man, great video. I don't know how to they really set it up in England, since I live in the US, but do you guys have the same rating system? If so what roughly is you rating? Here in the US, anything above 2000 is pretty decent, while 2200+ is getting to be really good.

[DansTableTennisDaily]

@scylla24 ok,,, yeh im not to sure of the comparison between US and England rating system,, but in England i am 50... ermm i dunno what that would be in US because i have not seen any US players play in England so i cant judge... thanks for the comment m8 :D

[lpsirhc]

my mother wondered if i watch porn

[DansTableTennisDaily]

@lpsirhc lol and you said???

[lpsirhc]

@DansTableTennisDaily i told her she should watch sharapova in tennis ;)

[chaoticjosh1]

Thanks for posting this.

One question: Isn't it dangerous to play with all those balls laying on the ground? Someone could slip!

[DansTableTennisDaily]

@chaoticjosh1 nah its fine,,, if you hit one they just break

[DKPOWA]

Dude, if you are the guy in yellow shirt, and this Gavin is the one in blue, then you must be #1 in Britain by far.

Now, without really knowing who is who, I think the one in yellow is far more talented while the other one is result of lots of training and still dont like how he plays.

[DansTableTennisDaily]

@DKPOWA aha no, gavin is stupidily good, these are only highlights.... if i was to play him in an actual competition and stuff his serves and receive would kill me

[joaomarcelott]

What rubber do they use? Thanks!

[DansTableTennisDaily]

@joaomarcelott its me in yellow, i use boll spirit with tenergy o5 both sides, and gavin uses stiga blade with tenergy o5 both sides

[Dexduzdiz]

where do you play?

[DansTableTennisDaily]

@Dexduzdiz i dont man,, have been injured,,, but was playing in france and bristol,,, i will be attending bristol academy of sport this septemeber

[BollForte94]

[DansTableTennisDaily]

@BollForte94 ha, just fun man
