Lol, with all the DE&I, destruction of traditional families and acceptance of pulic display of sexual deviancy in the west the take away that consevatism being the reason for the downfall is a wild take.

It's one of these days: playing a youth player and a veteran which we brushed away in doubles 3-0, but then they cause unexpected trouble in singles against me. I even lose to the youth player in the fifth set, while i comfortably was "unchallenged" in the first set with him blocking every...

While using hips to rotate and a slight left to right movement of the bat is surely not bad on itself, you have to make sure that this "left to right" movement of the bat is not during the range where you hit the ball. Let's say the full range of your backswing to swingthrough is roughly a...

unfortunately a certificate does not say much (at least in germany). I do know quite a few people that got their trainer license that can not do a proper loop on backspin. Either the need for coaches is so big that anybody gets a certificate as a participation trophy or the federation thinks...

That is a big point of discussion that i have with some of the players i do play training doubles with. He does try to big swing loop opponents serves and has a success chance of 1 in 10, while the 1 that actually lands on the table is an easy invitation to get me "outblocked" (he receives with...

Dude, as an fellow engineer i would have expected you to solve this issue by yourself. Depending on the camera quality these tips might or might not be needed, but in general: make your recording fps the Hz/frequency according to your country power grid properties. I germany we got 50Hz, so if...

Yes, i definitely know that these is not a legal serve even though from ghe opponents view its hard to judge because i seve straight at his backhand. This exact serve i usually do if i underestimate players or i want to use the match to get accustomed to win fancy, because it get's me straight...

You have a strong misconception on your skill and the skills of others. I can not judge for the "divison 2 player" of Australia and i might even give it to you in doubt under the precondition that for sure, people that never played table tennis and were actually just gamers and only played...

first one is pretty much only sidespin, while second one is sidetop and it is not important where on the blade you hit it but rather the vector of movement of the blade at that time. Where you hit it can influence the amount of spin you generate but can not turn left sidespin to righ side spin...

@Archosaurus i don't know if that's a defensive precautionary excuse or the truth, but it does not make sense to record yourself after (allegedly) 3 hours of hard workout/drills just to present videos of you missing left, right and center. There is really no value and take aways here, because...

Just caught this when cutting Barusus Video :p

Thank you @NDH for making my short cameo for the open session possible. All people i was able to speak briefly to were very welcoming and i even got a gift by my namesake @latej . Thank you very much it's much appreciated Thank you @Haito for the drills and helpful tips regarding grip, backhand...

While we are at it, i will bring another Xiom Hayabusa ZL Pro with Rakza Z on both sides and two DHS W968 Provincial with rubbers for interested buyers.

often it is also about prefered ball height and curve. I remember myself looping very high balls by letting them fall quite a bit until they reached my shoulder level so i could powerloop them, simply because i was incapable of smashing them at higher heights.

My level is being able to reliably loop backspin with the forehand, push, touch short, block regular spin. Footwork and shot selection being a major imrpovement opportunity (to phrase it positively:p). There would be no point for me playing somebody who could "outplay" me with positioning...
