He calls it strawberry! :LOL: 🍓😵‍💫

This is nice! In my view, only a "roller" is a corkscrew because then the ball rotates through its horizontal, vertical and diagonal axis as well, making the ball spiral (backwards).

All Adam does is finish with an opposite arm movement to the spin he puts into his ball. They are just side spin balls with back/top spin.

OMG, an “ordinary” sidespin with backspin. Ok, let we call it a corkscrew in the future.

Okay, show me a corkscrew spin.

Corkscrew bal....🤦‍♂️

The hit point to play a so called corkscrew is in the same place in billiards and table tennis. Back/top spin & side spin going around their axis simultaneously gives a spiral motion. It's some handy media people who think they've reinvented the wheel that came up with such a name I suppose. In...

Two horizontal axes? On every ball, there are 10-number of horizontal and vertical axes but there are only two basic axes (this one in the middle). In billiards, you have to know how to find all those axes to ‘score’.

On a round object, you only have 2 basic axes that are (playable) in all technical ball sports, a horizontal and vertical axis. Of course, between these axes you can play all playing surfaces. A touch between a horizontal and the vertical axis will simply generate back/top spin with a side spin...

I now see this one but first. I didn't know there was a topic about it.

Lee Seungsoo is blijkbaar 13 jaar oud. Wat een BH!!!

Lol, surely a ball with side spin just can't change from backspin to topspin or vice versa. Not even our best friend Anders Lind can do this, let alone Adam Bobrow.:D Gauzy's all his balls were topspin balls, only his last one was a combination of side spin & backspin. Something else doesn't...

In the kids U17, remember the name of Lee Seung-Soo. What a great BH that boy has.

No I wrote: Touch point is indeed clearly above table height but beyond the ‘baseline’ and no longer above the playing surface. I did not write anywhere that it is below the playing surface. But he would indeed be better off ‘dropping’ the ball longer. I also think, to give a better example, he...

Touch point is indeed clearly above table height but beyond the ‘baseline’ and no longer above the playing surface, and the ball is also already in decline. As it should be with a looping/top spin. But I think he meant that you have to start low with your arm (knee, calf) and then finish high...

Old school but still THE reference to have a good basic technique. Many a current player had better learn this before they think they are Ma Long. By the way with pushing idem, I sometimes wonder if (new) members of a club still learn this basic stroke or does it all have to be as fast as...

Felix? Alexis you mean.

That has little to do with it. His FH shots have indeed improved in recent months. It's about his reflexes, his reaction times to e.g. go from his BH to his FH, and they are really ‘bad’ at that level. Whenever there was a need to switch, he was late with his movement, from his FH to his BH his...

Harimoto's reaction time was again way off. OMG, for such a player, I think he has the slowest reflexes of all the top players. But I had already written that once surely?
