Timo is one of the all-time legends of the sport and here he is saying "Y'know I'm just lucky that I'm a sponsored player."
Timo has got to be one of the most modest and nice people in history.
in German u say Bodenständig, so ein Ehrenmann
Even him recognizes Dignics price is so high that he had a small fortune in his hands.
ping pong ain't football or baseball, less money and all
so yeah he's damn lucky there's such a thing as a sponsored athlete in ping pong
@@romanseminogov9604 table tennis*
That’s why he is loved by everyone 🥰❤️
Weighing out each rubber by the decimal point like that is the most German thing I've ever seen
For thoese who dont understand why Timo weights his rubber before cutting and (Not after). Sponge is one of the lightest meterial on earth. Difference weight in decimal point decide Harder(denser) sponge or Softer sponge. For a normal human being, differences of 5g is not noticeable as a Whole racket weight. It doesnt matter at all. Denser Sponge = Greater speed, Softer sponge = Greater spin. The softer sponge bites(dwell) the ball more and create a lot of spin.
@@naywon6492 hmm i think he also can't weigh them after cutting because by then they are already mounted onto the blade...
It's not really the weight he is measuring, but density and how fast it's gonna be.
Makes sense though. If you measure the lightest (slowest) combination (two rubbers plus wood), versus the heaviest, I'm sure a player of his calibre would be able to tell straight away.
Seems like we need to do another German thing then. A blind test and measurements.
however at some point rubber is slightly touching the table :)
@@keselioglu yeah seems pointless if it’s touching the table.
One of the most humble players in the game. A Legend for many reasons. May you continue playing professionally for another 20 years. Also, i was wondering why he has not hired someone to do these tasks. But then i self-answered, which could be right, that top players do not like even the slightest mistake on their equipment. Also, they can themselves feel the equipment and ensure that it is 100% according to their need.
Timo said he usually has a larger scale to weigh those rubbers. Timo is a legend in table tennis, but he has no idea how to weigh things. He should have found something rigid and square that could be tared before weighing the rubbers. He had edges of the rubber square touching the table which ruined the weigh in. If weight was important, why didn't Timo weigh the bare blades too? Once knowing the rubber weights, why not pick and choose the rubbers that he wanted in appropriate pairs? Great player. Lab skills...not so much.
@@ericzeigler8669 the total weight of the racket is not important. also you can weight the assembled racket and subtract the weight of each rubber. but it is not the point. he weights the rubbers because the lighter rubber means less dense sponge, which could be softer.
@@lerdan I disagree that the total weight of the racket is not important. I am not nor have I ever been an "elite" table tennis player . I won the South Carolina state championship twice in the early 70's. It was important to me back then as an "OK" player. The weight of the racket is still important even if you dismiss this fact.
@@ericzeigler8669 again, you have to watch the video carefully. Timo plays with Timo Boll ALC blade. All of them have similar weight (+/- production tolerance). He is not going to switch to another blades because some other blade models are lighter. The weighting process is to figure out which rubber is HARDER or SOFTER. Also what is the point of weighting the BARE blades if he can weight the assembled racket at any point now with RUBBERS on them. Isn't it what matters the most and not the weight of the bare blade?
@@lerdan Let me clarify. The total weight of the racket fully assembled is important. Since the bare blade is part of this weight, it is important. You write as if the bare blades are all the same weight, which is wrong. Then you suggest my comments require Timo to entirely change the model of the racket that he uses to something lighter and unfamiliar. You need to improve your reading comprehension. The weight of the racket includes the blade, rubber, edge tape and chack required to glue it together. Your total weight minus rubber weight is not equal to the weight of the blade since the other items weigh also. Why would I have to watch the video carefully? Of course Timo uses the Timo Boll ALC blade. That's what he's paid to play with. It's intuitively obvious to the most casual observer that the total weight of the assembled racket is important, regardless of rubber hardness.
Step 1: Lay out $9000 in Dignics rubbers. :D
are those numbers even close to real price ?
@@obo873 each sheet of dignics is ~$94, not counting taxes, shipping or discounts. There's 12 rubbers laid out there, so that's a little over $1100 on that table. Throw in the price of the blades and, well... it's not cheap
@@Barman4200 Why at some point prices skyrocketed that much? Butterfly rubbers used to cost 20-50$ and suddenly they began to charge $100. Same with blades from 30-90 to 150.
@@bebzon8941 I mean, they've got the reputation to do it & it seems people are buying it. I've also heard Butterfly spends the most on R&D, but I can't back that up with a source. In any case that's waaayy too expensive for anything I'll buy. Hell, I feel bad about ordering rubbers a third that price!
Alternative step 1: become a sponsored player
Hi, Timo. I'm 61 years young and very enthusiastic about table tennis. My way to glued the rubbers is more quick, and I think it is because I didn't have more experience doing that. I have been learning little by little, and with your video, I just learned that is safe to let the glue dry completely before putting the rubber on the blade. It is great to know that now. I have watched you playing, and your experience and techniques are amazing . I've been playing for only 3 years. I don't have a coach, so I watch people playing, and I try to copy them, hahaha😂 that way I have improve some. Bye now, and have a blessed day.
Spiele nicht einmal Tischtennis aber gucke Timo fasziniert dabei zu, wie er Gummischeiben wiegt und murmel "nein, das ist eindeutig zu leicht, das würde ich auch nicht spielen" vor mich hin. Absolut Sympathisch!
Haha wie geil. 😂
Wah, Timo is so professional even on filming and video editing😌😁
I am not wondering about it. In German is to cut movies and to spin a ball the same word. "Schnitt"
Nur hast du fast 2 millimeter am Rand gelassen anstatt einen halben millimeter 😅Hätte mich gewundert das du einen halben millimeter schneiden kannst .Ich arbeite jeden Tag mit Maßen ich sehe das sofort
Vorher wiegen und dann mach Augenmaß mit der Schere abschneiden? Da passt was in der Überlegung nicht. Ansonsten cooles Video 👌🏻
@@veganforfuture ich denk mal es geht ihm nicht ums Gewicht sondern darum zu wissen wie hart die Beläge auf Holz x sind. Dadurch kann er sich je nach Hallengröße, Temperatur und Luftfeuchtigkeit die für ihn passende Härte raussuchen
Lost Ordem es geht beim Wiegen um die Konsistenz der Beläge und nicht nur um das Gewicht 😉
Timo you are not lucky to be sponsored.
You are the German Goat of this sport so Butterfly is lucky to have you. :)
Anyway nice that you still very appreciate the fact that they give you the material for free.
Timo, the professional, humble and loyal TT player. He nerver hide his profile: equipments and his ideology, unlike many others who are sponsered by one brand but used other brand ( blade and rubbers), he always followed the IITF guidelines with respect and sincerity. A true sports man with transparent personality.
A lot of table tennis enthusiasts I've encountered are snobbish, psycho aholes who take themselves way too seriously and rely on mind games and arrogance to gain some kind of edge. Yet here you have a living legend, one of the best in the world, super humble, super likable, super open about his equipment, and seems like he'd be pleasant to be around. Maybe more players should follow suit, idk.
will never forget the moment I shaked timos hands when I was a 12 years old boy .. that was 14 years ago and timo is still up there
We gotta see Timo’s morning coffee routine!
Hi there I make Table Tennis Analysis and Best points Videos , it would be great if you check it out
timo boll is such a guy who measures each bean before his morning espresso
Timo has been, and still is a legend.
Perfect video, thank you so much Timo!🔥
Such a humble person Timo is. I love you Timo. Timo the great living legend.
Thanks for sharing, Timo!
Salute for Timo!
Really helpful and informative! The edgetape tip is really useful! Thanks!
You are a true legend Timo.
I love you, Timo! Thank you so much!
You're really nice and kind! I learned major skills of table tennis from your videos!
I never thought that I knew enough about gluing with "clean" glue, until now. Thanks Timo!
As days go by I have more and more respect for you because of the initiative that you take inorder to help and encourage people like us.
Great video Timo
Thank you so much
All the best legend ✨
Thank you Timo for posting vlogs here on youtube. This is the first time fans could get to know you better :) I wish you had vlogs from 2008-2018.. It just feels great that you are sharing helpful table tennis tips here.
I remember you when you gave me your for hand rubber Salvo speed in Den Haag European youth championship 1995.Is me the Rasta Man.Thanks was a great motivation to go to the hall.
Thanks for showing us this process. It reminds me of when I played college tennis and the time I spent re-stringing my rackets all the time.
We're lucky to have a top pro, a real legend too doing youtube videos. Thanks Timo!
So humble thanks timo
Hey Timo,
ich bin dein chinesischer Fan! Bin so froh, dass du in dem letzten WTT gegen Lin Shidong gewonnen hast (ich habe mir einen Timo Boll ACL geholt, um dich zu unterstützen hehehe)! Wünsche Dir das Allerbeste und hoffe, dich bald in Olympia-Spiel sehen kann.
Zero dislikes says it all.
We love Timo Boll....
Now there are 15😲

@Lonnie JM Moon 87!
Heh your comment made people dislike the video
133😅
Super Timo!!! I wish I could have one of those blade..
Many thanks!!! It was very interesting to see how a superstar does it.
So nice to watch how you explain all the details. You are a great person, not only a great player. God bless!
Timo thank you for your guidance. I enjoyed the video and the effort you made in recording it. I hope I can watch again in the near future when I buy my Timo Boll ALC paddle. Good luck on all the competitions ;)
Thanks for sharing the way you glue your rackets. You have always been my #1 favourite player and will always be.
Изумительные откровения!
Тимо, так держать!!
Сила в правде, брат.
Wooow Timo))) You have a personal RUclips Channel, I can't believe it!!! Good luck Timo! Great Video))🏓!
My inspiration, a very humble guy.
You are a role model of an athlete sir 👍
Always prioritize fairplay whether in game or off game
No wonder you are a legend 🏆
Saludos desde Tenerife, eres el mejor!! You are the best!😉😉
I've never prepared my own racket, my first ever custom racket I bought I got it put together at no cost. However watching this video I'm excited and confident to assemble my next one. Thank you, Timo!
thanks, idol Timo!!! Stay healthy and my you win more tournaments in the future!
Wow, that was nice to know about the side tape 😄
Great tutorial Timo 🏓🏓🏓
Dear Timo, many thanks for this video, it will help people to avoid mistakes with gluing, which is often. Best regards
Table Tennis is one sport where even the top players personally handle the "stringing" of their equipment. One reason why we love this game. Given how fast and exciting the game is played and the interesting personalities (like Timo Boll) and contrasting playing style of the top players from all over the world, it deserves more following, bigger sponsors and higher prize money that what it gets now as compared to Tennis and Badminton. But I'm happy that it's getting more airtime now and the quality of the TV production coverage has greatly improved.
the definition of sportsmanship - timo boll!🤾🤾🤾
Many thanks for the lesson. I learnt a lot.
Thank you for such a beautifully comprehensive tutorial on constructing a custom racket!
That's very interesting, thank's you timo 💪👍
Thank you Timo, very interesting how you only use half edge tape. I also make my own, it just feels more personal and I feel I play better with a connection and more knowledge about how my blade was made.
I simply ask the shop, from where I buy the items, to glue it for me.
But one day, I will try it myself with some low budget equipments to do this all by myself.
Thanks for the full upload Timo.
Thanks Mr. Timo Boll
Das nenne ich mal komplette Transparenz in Kombination mit dem Fakt, dass man hier auch aus Erfahrungen lernen kann - sehr gut erklärt, schön gefilmt, da werden selbst 26min Kleben nicht langweilig ;) liebe Grüße, gerne weitere Videos!
Thx a lot for the tips. I will try out half the edge tape trick.
Best ASMR vid for table tennis players . Tingles all the way through . I guess Timo's natural kindness is the secret !
Hi Timo, I’m one of your fans here in the US. You are so humble and great legendary player. 🏓
Nice video Timo like always !
Sehr gut Video. Grüße aus der Türkei!
Thanks bro I buyed same things as you and now I use your equipment and I absolutely love it
Love you Timo from your biggest fan in Mongolia 😁
Good day! Today I saw your channel on RUclips and immediately subscribed to it as I am a big fan of yours . I started doing tennis 2 years ago. At my age, it is already difficult to achieve high results . But I try.
Mr Timo Boll, I'm always dreaming to have one of your used blade. You are my inspiration
Nice video Timo, cheers from Costa Rica!!
Hi Timo! Never give up! I love you from Italy 😉
The whole video aside from showing how to glue it's just FLEXING 😆😆😆😆 I love it
Sehr sympathisches Video, danke Timo Boll!
My all time favourite table tennis player!
great work Timo
I still have my chinese „double fish“ racket from 1982, and few „Schilkröt“ olympic balls from the early 80’s. It was played a lot as a young amateur, but taken very much care of it. Surprisingly, it‘s in almost perfect condition, just the top rubber is loose for few mm on some places of the outside. Took care of the top rubber 4 times/year with castor oil (Rizinus Öl), let it set for one day, then got the surface clean and adhesive with alcohol. From time to time some dabs with regular honey, then again cleaning with alcohol. (in eastern Europe we had nothing else, and me no knowledge). But the grip is 38 years later 90% as new.
I was a big fan of Dragutin Surbek.
I like the style of Timo too!
I had made a customized ergonomic grip out of 10mm plywood for my very small hands. This shorter but heavier grip moved the balance point towards the handle, for a very pleasant control feel. Had wound sewing tread on the last layer of laquer, then removed. Somehow the laquer is not hardening completely, still kind of sticky... Best grip I EVER felt on a racket.
Think it‘s time for me, to try some modern materials... and get to play
So professional!
Great video. Ive always told my mates that the edge tape changes the feeling of the racket and that I cant get used to it. Nobody believed me. Thanks for the comfirmation :D
Funnily I thought the same but didn't believe myself!
It is great to watch a professional of his caliber explain his process to us mere mortals. Thank you sir.
Thanks Timo
Great video
You’re a true gentleman and of course one of all times legends
I really never thought of this eversince. It's a good thing @Timo Boll really emphasizes on this one.. Tnx Timo. I hope we can interview you.
Schöne Erklärung mit einem guten Humor. Einfach sympathisch und echt gut im Tischtennis😊
You could use your scale to weigh the glue. I also like thinning thick glue down (water and pipette) and using two layers on rubber and blade to make sure the glue is spread 100% evenly. It takes some time - I admit it - ,but it's worth it. Many thanks for showing us how you do it!
Thanks so much for the sharing knowledge
We all respect You Timo.
You are the best European table tennis player of all time, along with Jan Uve Waldner! Thanx for your huge contribution to tt.
Как же приятно смотреть, как Звезда мирового тенниса делает своими руками: спокойно, профессионально, понятно. Благодарю Вас... И новых ПОБЕД!
So funny I started playing when I was 12 with a butterfly timo boll blade thats like 7 years ago I found it a month ago put new rubber on it like u and I made my first topspin felt sooo fking good. ty for being my tt idol absolute legend.
I now see that my “professional” gluing method takes about a third of your time xD
Keep up the great work Timo! Looking forward to seeing my favorite player back in action!!
Well I guess you don't prepare 6 rackets
Timo boll sou brasileiro sou seu fã ..acompanho todos os seu jogos ... Timo Boll você incrível
You even make the process of glue-ing entertaining and engaging Timo! Loved the background music too!!! Thank you 🙂
Useful indeed. And you can tell he was doing this for real, not just to shoot the video (or he could have done just a single racket). Plus, I never noticed he only uses the tape on the down side (and I believe this is never mentioned in the commentaries). Really helpful.
Timo, vielen Dank für deinen aufschlussreichen Beitrag hier. Super
You are my motivation! You are the best Timo, saludos desde Sudamérica, desde Ecuador. 🇪🇨💯
Always used to use a flat square block of wood together with a G-clamp to achieve a perfect bond between blade and rubber. Then I used a circular sander and jig to get a perfect edge finish like a shop bought racket. I got such perfect results that I ended up being the bat doctor for all the players at college.
What an amazing video. Mr. Timo Boll himself, the legend himself!!! Amazing!!! Now I need to find Mima Ito's gluing video, for hter Nittaku Acoustic Carbon and pips out red rubber. :)
you are very unique sir .... there are many people using a roller but you use your forearm
it is totally amazing sir i am lucky to exist in the timoboll era
Great style, great skill 😎 your are champ remember ✊
WTF was I just watching.
I just wanted to go to sleep but find myself here almost 30 minutes later. That was so enjoyable to watch. I love how natural you represent your thoughts and the whole video. Sehr angenehm.
Seit 20 Jahren Tischtennis-Legende und gleichzeitig so sympathisch und bodenständig...! :)
Legend success lies with their hard work and sincere efforts. He has done everything with his bare hands with accuracy.
From Brazil, i think this is the best table tenis chanel off RUclips.
I'm glad to see your RUclips
Greetins from sweden Timo Boll!!!! i talked with one of my club partners where i play table tennis, we started to talk about our swedish king Jan Ove, and then i said to him that Jan ove said one day to watch out for Timo Boll he will be dangerous in the future and the Ball king was right! you are and will allways be number 1 in Europe in the 20century and so on! i allways liked your playstile and surfs, would be a dream to meet you and say hello! i was at Halmstad 2018 and saw you play! i cried with joy to see my Idol!
Such a lovely person!, thanks Timo for this great video! Im so amateur that I dindt know the players glue the rubbers, i thought they came already done hahahaha greetings from Argentina!
Thx for the tipp. Been years since I've seen Timo. Met him doing a DTTL Opener were we had a few pro players placed on the DTTL Logo and palying on it in 3D Space. I remember he was nice enough to play with me and at the end gave me a mini butterfly racket that I still have here at my house about 15 years later. It has no more grip :D. Lets just say he didn't turn on the heat and let me have 2 points. :D
