Table Tennis Grip Paddle How can I get more grip (adherence) on the rubber sides of my old table tennis paddle?
I have an old tennis table that I want to use once again, but the rubber side it has no adherence to spin the ball at all. If you know any technique, method or product I can apply, please answer me
To restore it, I would put a few drops of vegetable oil on the rubber (The stuff you have around your kitchen), then wipe the whole surface down with a cloth of some sort. After that, you can mainly use tap water to clean the rubber after each use.
How do I use the flared-straight handle of my ping pong (table tennis) racquet?
I bought a butterfly kenji paddle and it comes with a unique flared-straight handle style in which one side of the handle is straight and the other side is flared (concave in the middle).
I want to know the logic behind this and also how to use this grip to get the maximum out of it?
The sculpted handle is designed to keep the bat stable in your hand. For instance, a straight handle doesn't keep your bat from sliding out of your sweaty hand. The curved side goes "down", and the straight side "up". This designates which side of the bat is the backhand and forehand side: you won't be "flipping" your bat. The anatomic and flared handles provide the same type of stability in your hand, without limiting you to using a single side on the forehand and backhand. Of course, flipping only comes into play if you have different rubbers on either side of the bat. Hope that helps.
Size Paddle What are the approximate dimensions of a standard-sized ping pong paddle?
I am working on an art project and I am trying to build a ping pong paddle. I don't have an actual one to use as a guide, so I need to know the height and width of a ping pong paddle to at least get an approximate idea about how big to make the paddle. Does anyone know the standard sizes? I know that it can be any size and it must be 85% wood, but that's not what I'm looking for. I need to know the actual size that will help mine look like one. Thank you!
Formula for Calculating pounds of resistance when rowing a boat?
I'm training for kayak racing this summer. I would like to accurately determine the amount of resistance that a single paddle stroke generates, so I can set up a specific routine. I'm sure there must a formula that no doubt uses the area of the paddle face, length of the handle, and possibly the size and/or weight of the kayak. I am interested only in a formula here, not workout advice. Thanx.
There is no formula and cannot be.
Too many variables.
What is the shape of the paddle face?
What is the shape of the force in your power stroke?
What path does the paddle take when you stroke?
How smooth is the surface of the kayak?
What is the material of the kayak and are there any coatings on it?
What is the wetted surface area?
How steady is the kayak while you are paddling?
The only real way to do it for you is to connect a strain gauge on the paddle and do some experiments.
Player Set Storage 2005 Dodge Neon OEM Radio - What is the value?
I have a 2005 Dodge Neon SXT OEM radio set (front dash speakers, side door speakers, 6x9 speakers, in-dash CD Player and AM/FM tuner (no CD changer)) that came with my 2005 Dodge Neon when I bought it 2 years ago. At 31miles on the car (bought with 16miles) I removed the entire kit and had a full system professionally installed (speakers, amps, head-unit, wiring).
I wanted to sell the set, and I wanted to know if anyone knows the value of it, and even more important where I could sell it (aside from eBay and online auctions). It's in mint condition, it was used to the point of a few quick drives, then taken out to install the new system I had put in.
It's been in storage for nearly 2 years now, un-touched and still sealed up. Any help on this would be awesome, thank you in advance.
$90.00 for the radio only i don't need anything else
send me a picture front and back
thank you
I have to make or improve on an invention for class. I came up with bone conduction headphones "that u hear through vibrations not sound waves" that has a mp3 player built in romovable alarm clock to silently wake u up and a heart rate moniter that checks ur pulse and after the alarm goes off if your pulse drops below a set rate (you fall asleep) it goes off again. the estimated cost would be from $170 to $400 depending on mp3 storage size/
would you like it or is it a good idea??
I like it a lot. That way we don't have to choke ourselves having headphones in at night. Also it would make sense because we may wake up better than that normal screeching alarm we have now. The only bad thing would be that you could never be late for work again - there would be no excuse hehe.
