Bump!
So any last minute change of hearts in case you guys happen to be in Asia?
Simon and I are going.

Rob and Joe playing now against Moore and Diaz. 1-1 currently.

2:1 now, they are playing well as a team!
Won that 3-1.
In the winners bracket final! Well done guys!

Thanks Will!

Whats the difference between the yellow and orange fireball balls?
I got some yellow ones coming with the table, but the orange ones are the official ones correct?

My first table was a FAS, and I didn't really have a problem on it with Garlando Magic balls (those around 2005-2007?). My table surface was quite clean and the Magic Balls were very sticky on it, its where I learned Euro-to-fakey. I found the slightest bit of grease will make the surface slippery, ...

Any Brits this year? In Kuala Lumpur 31st Oct - Nov 3rd.

I've heard the Malaysians are trying to arrange flights and hotel deals to make it more affordable, as I remember their team was sponsored by AirAsia last year.

Thanks Dave! I am playing on Tornado indeed, let me give it a try!

Just want to ask for advice on bank shots, I've been practicing at home and its very inconsistent. I also find it quite hard to get the sharp angle from the middle on the 2 bar.

Thanks guys! I would love to bank like Dave Oates, Simon, etc!

Simon is the red defence in case the camera doesn't catch his hair.

Go to Kozoom now! Simon is live! Just started his second round of knock out stages in open doubles, having just beaten a Japanese pair in a tense game 7-5 in the 5th game.

Tom Yore won OS, although the Kuwaitis did give him a run for his money. Both 2nd and 3rd place are from Kuwait in fact. Roman Benz from Austria was 4th.
And Simon does indeed have a mohawk.

Just an update to the scene in Hong Kong. We just had a DYP last night with some guys from UK, Jeeha, Simmo, William Leung. Although they are not going to be here permanently, but its very fun! :D The scene has picked up in Hong Kong actually after being quiet a few years back, Graham Tsoi is a enth...

Any of you guys going to this?

With my close proximity i think I'll go! Assuming I can find a partner.

Dave Z, its the truth, although not common I think. For this one in Shenzhen, they had a foreign English teacher who also taught PE, and he happens to play foos. The key is they got space, and this was always the case but they didn't have a quality table, so they can't be competitive. But now with F...

No clue what you are on about Dan! I don't think I played singles for Catz I until my fourth year~~ Dave, its quite impressive actually, the kids actually take foosball as their core subject during P.E (instead of the more common chocie of basketball or football), so that's all they do during and af...

Playing in the Shanghai Open right now, the kids are amazing!
Just lost my amateur singles match against a primary school kid.

Thanks Mase, Dave and Boris!
Very clear.
Hope to come back to UK for foos some day!

Been a few years since I've been on this forum, hi everyone! :D I am now located in Hong Kong with much less foos, however very recently I bought a Tornado and thought I can try to play foos in Asia. I am planning to go to this Fireball Tournament in Shanghai, and I've never played on a Fireball Tab...

I just want to echo what others have already said. What a well organised tournament, and whats more, what a fantastic venue for future tournaments, well done to the organisers. Lets hope the landlord liked us and will welcome us to return many more times. It was great to see many of you, and well do...

Haha!

I know what you mean, Rob Davey should so be a semi-pro.
