All table tennis tournaments should use only LIGHTWEIGHT BALLS to boost long rallies, techniques, physical strength, and attractive playable table tennis. Who win, it is not important, but attractiveness, spectacular game show with exiting running around courts are more important. NEED TO BAN HEAVYWEIGHT BALLS IN TABLE TENNIS. The reason is that heavyweight balls ignore all other techniques and RUNNING AND ATHLETIC SKILLS, but require more only reactions. Because heavyweight balls are not effectively be slowed down by air resistance. So heavyweight balls often fly so extreme fast beyond human reaction. Heavyweight balls reduces players ball controls and ball feeling, too. You know that, if you can not react, so you can not apply techniques effectively. You can easier earn points by your strokes because of your opponents can not react fast balls, but in other turns, you can not catch and react to return fast balls from your opponents, too. It leads to very short ball episodes, with more reaction requirements and less other techniques, so very bored matches. New players just leave table tennis sport after some tries, because they can not feel sport playing, which requires unhuman reactions and difficult ball controls and ball feeling. Lightweight balls are quickly effectively slowed down by air resistance. Air resistance is the most important factor for speed. So lightweight balls fly more slowly, in the possible human reaction. You can apply techniques only when balls fly with speeds in possible human reactions. Besides, lightweight balls increase players ball controls and ball feeling, especially in fast rallies. So various techniques will have chance to show : running, athletic skills, spin, long topspin rallies, physical strength, long ball episodes. It is more difficult for you to win by your fast strokes, but in other turn, it is easier for you to catch and react to return from your opponents fast balls. It leads to more long rallies with athletic skills . Besides, players improve their skill to increase ball speeds time by time. Rubbers help improve ball speeds, too. So now and very soon, ball speeds are beyond possible human reaction. It means that table tennis sport stops contest. To prevent this sport dead, there must be new standard lightweight balls, for example 1.5grams balls or 2grams balls, BUT NOT THE CURRENT 2.7GRAMS BALLS. At this moment, just do not use some heavyweight balls, which are a little heavy than other normal balls.
I agree with you. Table tennis changed and watching the pros has become boring because they can hardly keep the ball on the table. Epic rallies are rare these days.@@abstractexchange5057
LUNTE1337: I think so! Same colors mixed up a bit and turned 90 degrees to the left. Quite a famous joke these days (during world football championchips) to “recycle“ our flags or merchandising stuff. 🙈
Which old man? Persson is older than Popdinka. I'm 4 years younger than Popdinka and 6 years younger than Persson. I think I'm looking a lot more like Popdinka, though...
NightcruiserMA I thought he was the backyard club player. His strokes look kind of funky, I was surprised to see him compete with the other dude who is a bona fide pro
Persson is 52 (born 1966) Podpinka was born in 1968..…..is also the nephew of Tibor Klampar…… Podpinka won a silver medal at the 2001 World Table Tennis Championships in the Swaythling Cup (men's team event) with Martin Bratanov, Marc Closset, Jean-Michel Saive and Philippe Saive for Belgium
Woww..... its crazy to me how these guys, that used to be soooo good, all of a sudden are soooo bad, just because theyre over 50. This goes to show that the age really Do affect us in a such negative way. This really looks like two 12 year olds are playing. Its sad to see their decline. But at least there are some few real glory moments here, where you see their former top-form come to life.
At first I am like, "oh man, I don't wanna see a 11-0 game..." then Podpinka stuck it out and turned it into a real nail biter. Nice!

Andras Podpinka went as far as quarter-final in WTTC, 1993. the year Gatien won
Heja Sverige! Grattis till Jörgen, en av våra stora mästare!
Insane, what a quality gameplay
Bara att bli imponerad av Jörgen, en av Sveriges bästa idrottspersoner genom tiderna,och kanske den mest underskattade?
Ja du har rätt, inte lätt att glänsa och visa hur bra man faktiskt är, när man alltid är i sällskap med J-O........
Podpinka plays here in bavaria and in the highest bavarian league and hasn't lost a game in like 3 years
Christopher Rid Der könnte doch locker Regionalliga spielen oder?
+Maddin ?? locker aber ist auch Trainer in Fürstenfeldbruck soweit ich weiß hauptberuflich und spielt so nebenzu
Persson looks like 20 years younger
But he is 2 years older.
Respekt!
Nice game.
Some impressive play! Would love to practice with a pro player some time. Would be awesome!
Absolutely amazing !!!
Und warum haben sie beim Stand von 5:5 im 5. Spiel nicht die Plätze gewechselt?
Podpinka (Hungarian) played all his life for the Belgium National team. So now he's German?
parc m he is playing in German league since 2009 if i am right. Maybe he got the German passport
If so, he's got all three of them (Hungarian, Belgian and German). Which make him 'multinational' :-)
parc m kinda yeah :)
Maybe they got the flag wrong?
LUNTE1337: I think so! Same colors mixed up a bit and turned 90 degrees to the left. Quite a famous joke these days (during world football championchips) to “recycle“ our flags or merchandising stuff. 🙈
Great match!
would love to see podpinka vs juanito
Podpinak is from Germany or Belgium ?
Podpinka played his career for Belgium, but since retiring now lives in Germany so represented them in WVC.
I remember he as a young player from competition in Hungary
Podpinka, Klampar Tibor unokatestvére.Magyar országból származik!
What equipment does Andras Podpinka use?
Andras Podpinka was born in 1968 ??
This Table tennis match is brought to you by: BenGay, Depends, Preperation-H, PolyGrip, Doans Pilla and BAYER Aspirin 😜
Legend
Still super entertaining
パーソンの相手まったく知らないけど普通に強いやん
close game in the end-never give up
Sååjaaaaa!
BRA GJORT JÖJJE!🇸🇪
why do they fondle the table, some lucky ritual?
To dry off sweat or clean some possible dirty spots
Pod has a very short stroke and doesn't extend his arms far. Unusual to me but effective
What do you mean uncommon many tall european players had similar techniques during the 80s and 90s and pod played during Gatiens time
What is old mans rating?
In 2001, Andras Podpinka was ranked 60th in the world. His last ITTF ranking was 97th in the world in 2004.
Which old man? Persson is older than Popdinka. I'm 4 years younger than Popdinka and 6 years younger than Persson. I think I'm looking a lot more like Popdinka, though...
NightcruiserMA I thought he was the backyard club player. His strokes look kind of funky, I was surprised to see him compete with the other dude who is a bona fide pro
joseppi4cinqua lol, I hear you. Search his name on TH-cam and you'll see him in good matches in the early to mid 90's.
Persson is 52 (born 1966) Podpinka was born in 1968..…..is also the nephew of Tibor Klampar…… Podpinka won a silver medal at the 2001 World Table Tennis Championships in the Swaythling Cup (men's team event) with Martin Bratanov, Marc Closset, Jean-Michel Saive and Philippe Saive for Belgium
Imposible
Дед силён 💪
👍👍🙏🙏🏓🏓♥️♥️😀😀
why do people say sorry when they are not sorry at all? :)
that is why I am not saying sorry
Hi
I'm 68 but look as young as Persson
Los weones buenos !
Veterans? they are playing like youngsters.
4:22 wtf
Думал, что Персон легко обыграет седого пенсионера. Ан нет. Дед - рокета, достойно играл!))
Евгений Р Перссон на 2 года старше Подпинки
这老头子行啊, 还能跟佩尔森支吧这么久

You are a complete idiot.
Lol I just met Persson
Shodaa !
한국인은 나뿐인가..하핫
Podpinka is still a heck of a blocker and short-hopper. Persson's longer strokes result in him being on the defensive but his youth helped.
He is older than Podpinka.
Older dude won
That old dude has got moves! Too bad he hasn't aged as well as Persson has
He's actually younger than Persson.
andras is in better shape physically. persson is 52 yrs. old, podpinka is 50 yrs. young. tibi büszke lehet. th-cam.com/video/cq6jquFrb08/w-d-xo.html
His big belly make me question your statement.
noting to say sorry about, he would not have time to catch it even if it hit clean,,,,th-cam.com/video/IZsMfDigrjA/w-d-xo.html
Green guy is weird
