In training unsurprisingly i suck at that. The ball gets way too often into the middle or even nearly down the line. In matches however i compensate by turning myself more open and manage to hit the ball in the direction i want it to go, but with the "wrong" sidespin. And the position i am in...

Yeah i am working on that quite hard at the moment. Currently it requires way too much focus, because im still not used to, to immediatly reset myself for the next shots. Breaking that habit of stopping to play takes so much time but is up high at my training agenda^^ I started doing that from...

I switched to Rxton 9 but their differences shouldnt matter for my particular issues^^ Ok, now i get that and understand what you meant before. I should definitly try that out. Not just for the seagull handposition (awesome name for that) but for the racketangle too. I am quite sure that my...

Tested and couldnt get used to it. That is probably not an option. That is the thing, my fh does get blocked rarely. And in case i can start off with my fh i hit those 80-90% of the time. I dont really wanna argue about consistency but if you point out the block errors the average is way...

I see what you mean. At 06:15 i committed better to the stroke, moved harder forward and hit the ball way clearer. I am usually spinning more than "hitting" because flat hitting doesnt work that well with harder rubber imo, so i am not really used to it. On top i never needed to use those. I...

That is our usual traininghall and a regular gym floor, nothing fancy because we have several other departments in our club than just TT.

Since last week i reached my all time high TTR but started struggling against players that are around 50-100 TTR points above me. Naturally that is not a big thing, but these games against those presumably better players were mostly really close. Many times i lost 2:3. Ofcourse you can just...

One of my teammates has this playingstyle with nearly the same equipment as the indian pro Batra. Usually these players can block everything with their lp bh but not so much with their fh. The main issue here is that those players tend to keep you on your bh. Learning to step deeper into your...

So true. But trained athletes can activate their lats just by pushing down and backwards their shoulders. That is probably the reason why ma long can accelerate his torso so fast without using his arm. In some of his games you can see his free arm in motion, mostly when he is lower and the...

Hm i wouldnt give any advice for that, because that highly depends on your abilities, technique, overall playingstyle, your physique... so many factors. But i got curious and wondered what i am doing with my free arm. I guess i would let it fly pretty far away from me but actually, the only...

The opposite is the case. An arm further away from the body would result in a bigger but way slower stroke. For amateurs the free arm is way more needed for such power and for balance purposes. But pros have such a well developed and trained core that these muscles do the job already. Another...

Ok, that is hilarious. Especially because the video shows its usage on fh and ive written that it is unusable (at least in the medium soft Version) on fh which is now included in his description. Curious that he changed his first line into a different, though i never knew that you can get...

True especially interesting because several more european sources claim he play with K3. Probably because K2 is not really available around europe...

No, but the requirements for more spin and power are significantly higher than with H3. It is easier to generate speed with H3 though, but i suppose the topend speed would be lower.

That is the plan ;) The soft one lacked some punch and after seeing @longle hitting beautiful bh with the harder version i have a new idol :love:

Especially sad for my fh usage. I still have 2 sheets here and will order more if they perform as good as the current sheet on my bh (my first 40 degree in red). But its ise for my fh became a different story. But for that issue i am currently using R9 which definitly hasnt the durability...

No problem. And i never said that you specificly said that^^ tb mentioned something like that, and i wanted to point that the rubber itself cant be slow at all. Aaaaand i never said anything about your technique at all. The first thing i would do anyhow, is to ask some footage of your gameplay...

100% agree. Although the main issue with it only accurs with fh use in my experience due to the harder hits. On bh i have 0 seperation 2 months in. I will most certainly stick to it for the second half of the season. The remaining question is the R9 on fh.

R9 is way harder than rakza z and therefore you wont have the easy touch-bounce and need more force for the higher speed levels. But those are higher than the rakza z. Rakza Z has a higher throw too, which was the main reason i used it on bh. Fh test was frustrating because i bottomed out too...

Actually disgusting. For me the R9 price is floating between 42-over 50€. Still cheaper than provincial bs h3 but with 50€ not that much anymore. If that increase keeps up, i will probably have to reconsider the decision of using R9 on fh. Maybe i have to copy longle and go for Bloom power. Or...
