You have to use your body when your hit the ball forehand, and your movement must go to the ball and do not wait for the ball, and for a higher speed and spin as a penhold player you have to make your arm long hitting the ball.

Does Tomasz's serve look illegal? He seems to hide his serve with his arm. It might be the reason you had trouble returning his serves.

nahh you can see them clearly.. its jsut the position when he puts it around the center of the table it messes me up, because i dont move fast enough to either side and he knows that i would try to use my bh to return it

Impressive hitting. Definitely hate the days where the training in the brain switches off and you do the wrong things. Off nights suck!

Get rid of your TPB, It's just causing you troubles. Both guys serve either long, or short but high. Attack it and stop pushing, you're a penholder god damnit

I don't think it was hiding the ball much from the receiver's view and it looked like arm was up for balance, even if it should be removed much more. To be fair, Decoy's arm was left up on serve (but much higher) in a similar fashion. I don't think this bothered either player much.
Decoy looked like he had next to zero explosion on his shots. He appeared to lack the energy to get the knees bent, waist down and twist enough to generate the killer blade acceleration. There are times where you use reduced power, but you still get down to get the control. Obviously, Decoy on that night didn't have it and there was prolly a very good reason for it - accumulated excessive demands on his body. Happens to ALL of us TT warriors who like to go all out all day. NONE of us can maintain top form all day playing like that, you degrade after a certain time. Even when we do this, we do not feel it so much, yet if you watch video, it is obvious.

cheers for that DE, that particular venue is hard to play at. the lights are really poor so its rather dark. also doesn help when the walls are white and the floor is prettymuch orange, so using either white or orange ball doesn't make much of a difference.. the reason i go down to that venue is to practice with Tomasz and Mike as they will be my team mates for the coming season.
i would normally perform much better in my normal club where the walls are black the lighting is perfect and the floor is ok.
then again playing agaisnt Tomasz is kinda hard he used to have Anti on his Bh so his bh blocks are quite accurate when he wants to place it
