Hello sir.

I watched a match on youtube from the Beijing olympics 2008 preliminary round. And it was Kyle Davis from australia against an egyptian. The playing style of Kyle Davis inspired me a lot whith a beautiful fh sidespin topspin and the bh was also great, so my question is if you know which equipment he used in the olympics, because i want to play like him.

Hi Jakob,

I am not sure what he was using at that time.  He uses Butterfly rubbers though.

Unfortunately he is not playing much at the moment.

Tone is in Your Fingers

There's is an old saying about guitar playing - tone is in your fingers. And If you've ever seen a really good guitarist play an old guitar then you'll understand how true that saying is. I know we go on a lot about this topic but it is so true. Once you've got yourself a decent bat, it's no longer up to the equipment, it's up to YOU!

After checking with Kyle he tells me it was probably Bryce as it was still the days of using speed glue.

Hi Jakob,

It's important to remember that having the exact same equipment is not necessary to emulate someone's style of play. Improving your technique and strokes is what will make the biggest difference.
