    Just about to purchase an expensive skipping rope on the web. After that, there is no more excuse not to skip.

    Thanks for watching my video and that compliment! I am working on the footwork and improving my serve and fh receive.
  3. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    I played tt ytd. I didn't do exceedingly well, but I focused on rotating my waist when I am doing a fh loop. My partner says the spin is good. Idk if I am doing it right but I am trying to change my fh so there is more forward motion instead of up. I played my partner who is from nearby...

    Here is my highlight video of the competition! Note I selected the best points only haha. Took me a fair while to select the best points and then put it all together.

    Thanks ttmonster! Yeah this one will be tougher, as this is in the city which means more strong players will be joining.. and I will have to drive back on the last day (2nd day) of the comp. Btw, my highlight video for my last comp is coming soon. :D Stay tuned.

    The founder of the club decided to help me out by giving me some exercises to help improve my fitness for table tennis! He used to be a coach for many years. Things include skipping, sit ups, push ups, squats, side steps, burpes, box jump, and others.. He said to start slow, so he showed me...

    I am actually contemplating to change away from hurricane if it is going to improve my fh form to hitting more forward and using the body. I am thinking about Dignics 09c (don't think I am loaded though lol). I did buy the boostser oil for H3 but I never got around to trying it and I don't think...

    Thanks Tony. To improve footwork: Would you recommend shadow stroke training for improving footwork? Or drills? When you say, use more body to hit, do you mean using more body rotation? How can I achieve that in a meaningful way? Would it be useful to train abs for that? I do have access to a...

    Not sure if you are being sarcastic here haha... Yeah I feel the biggest issue is I don't have anyone to give me those spiny loops / the environment to get me ready for matches like this. There actually was a guy from the city who came over to our area like 2 weeks before the comp, sadly the...

    I have posted my 2nd (and last) video in the video safe thread. I found it alot harder to play against this guy than the first guy. He doesn't seem to move very well, but when he loops and lands, it is quite often gg for me. Advice would be greatly appreicated. Thanks.

    If I may, I want to post a 2nd video for feedback. This one I found alot more harder to play than the first match. The loops were too spinny for me to handle. His bh serve got me too much until I learnt too late how to distinguish the no spin from backspin. When I misjudged it, he opens up with...

    Hi NextLevel, thanks for the great analysis! I agree with everything. I think because I don't do the tactical thinking before each point in my normal games in my club, I don't do it in competition. This is something I need to consciously do to change the habit. In terms of variation, I am...

    Thanks for the feedback Takkyu! I did try one fast down the line serve but he reacted rather well and I couldn't receive it, so I stopped doing it. Yes, I agree my movement is quite bad, particularly footwork. Like you said, I feel like I am moving like an old man. Even though I am going to...

    Thanks blahness! I am surprised with my bh too in the match! Yeah haha, I am surprised I got the bhs on too lol. "You can't succed unless you try" right? :LOL: Yeah, I feel like I know I need to hit to his bh but somehow I keep giving it to his fh and then getting punished by his spinny fh...

    Cool thanks. I have posted the first match in the video safe thread, but for those that want to comment (but not in the qualified list), you can comment in this thread. Cheers

    Hi guys, looking for feedback. This is a match I played in competition last weekend. My rating is inaccurate as I have not played proper comp for years but with my old rating, he is 100 points above me. He is using antispin on backhand. It was a close one and I felt I could have taken it...

    I'm back from the competition. It went for 2 days. I arrived 1 day prior so I don't have to start driving at 4am on day 1. I joined 5 events: Graded Doubles, Graded A singles, Country Doubles, Country singles, Drawn doubles. My aim was to not lose the first match of each event. Graded...
