So basically I am doing my c-license here in germany. We are told how to teach kids the specific strokes. Fh-topspin: He told us: -against backspin your shoulder must not drop. It has to stay even. -don't hide your elbow behind your back (what malong fzd and even some europeans do I think) -...

I tried zyre03 on a carbon blade but it wasn't any faster or uncontrollable compared to my setup. Also feeling wise it wasn't a oh wow moment. It does give a unique sound but that might be the blade idk.

I like the attempt but sadly it doesn't provide any useful information. You can't confidently judge a rubber within minutes. First minute it's impossible to chop and the next it's really good? Best way to find out if the setup suits you is to play matches imho. I want to see how you perform...

The funny thing is thats how I teach beginners in clubs how to loop backspin. I even show show them to loop with only wrist then with forarm and wrist and so on. In matchplay I bet I would sometimes get more quality just by using wrist and forearm in comparison with the whole body. But 9:25...

I mean I get the message and as long as you enjoy the process I also think it's not wasted time. However I disagree and just because you don't know the goal or believe in nothing (why we are here etc) that you can't waste it. Drugs,alcohol, staying in toxic relationships, doomscrolling etc too...

@Nima Abadi here a countertopspin from 2 days ago final in a tournament. I guess it helped going for the shot when 10-7 and 2-1 ahead.

to add to this you can also film your matches (in case you play against the same opp somewhat in the near future again) and find his weakness and try to exploit that more in the match. In best case using your strength against his weakness. And also just watch matches and think more about which...

Thank you for the feedback. 1) Yep I do practise a bit ~2-5min once in a while and it works in training mostly but I agree I don't really do an effective fast spinny push 90% of the time. Mostly I push with the backhand and mostly safe to the opponents backhand. 2) This one I am a bit confused...

what do you mean more speed? Swing harder for more speed.

I don't want to fixate on a specific Number. Otherwise if I don't reach it I will be sad or even if I reach it I will feel the emptiness afterwards. So my focus is just on the road itself. Enjoy the concept of getting something right over the years. Bonus points if I can reach a level and find...

Trained twice with this setup and won the tournament yesterday not dropping a single set till finals and then winning 3-1. I don't understand why this setup performs but it performs. Also the Fh finisher loops are insane. I would need to watch the game once they upload it on youtube. Technique...

I know it has not much to do with the initial question... This sport is dying. If you like it or not. dying in terms of in the next years coming there will be only super amateur players if I have to put in terms of rating: Below currents 1300TTR and the other half being pros who work daily with...

National was also gifted by my brother. Gotta have to use it now :P It sits in my drawer for a year now. My mind tells me to just give 0 fucks and just play with a setup I enjoy at that time and use up all these rubbers that I have. So blade wise only W968 with the d09c and H3n which I like...

this one is provincial. By hard I mean how it felt 8months ago. I didn't like it back then. I got another sheet but that's national from prott

Back then I only tried for 2-3weeks so 5? Sessions. I mean the H3N rubber. I liked d09c more. Was easier to play with. Quality of my shots was just better overall. It just felt like a dead hard brick back then. Keep in mind it was also winter. And I was playing in a hall around 20°C. I didn't...

the W968 holds a special place. It was a ~900€ birthday present from my lil bro. Even pros feel a difference changing rubbers only. But I respect your opinion.

I had the same equipment for 8 months. Just tried my old setup for once yesterday. I am not switching my equipment all the time.

I honestly put it all out. You are right though. Didn't want to give it to chatgpt since it makes it more robotic and "unnatural" But it's fine if there are people who don't want to read and skip it.

Yeah when I tried my H3n 8months ago it was in my old clubs hall I would say where the temperature is more towards 18-20°C and it felt like a brick even though it was freshly boosted. I didn't enjoy the feeling at all. Yesterday in a hotter environment it felt kind of softish. But thats also due...

It's my 5th time overall playing in their hall (2 times because of a "Race Cup") but yesterday it was very hot there I would assume 25-30° when I walked in. This is actually interesting I will bring my measurement with me next time and note it for me if I perform better when its colder or...
