  2. Best Rubbers for Harimoto Innerforce Alc

    The diginiski rubbers all require a faster bat with more body commitment and a different impact to get potential out of them... I do not do that on most of my impacts and do not want to change how I play or train for months to do a shot i do not use even 1/2 the time.
  3. Backhand topspin tutorials are useless

    This part here from KJH vid that NL inked in previous post (and an excellent instruction vid for approaches to BH topspin) at 10:36 is discussing how to be at the table and hit down the line short side of table to opponent's open FH line... You could use your wrist to adjust, but that is...

    Things are easier when one softens up, goes for less power... but going for power, the position, leverage, timing, setting and execution of the strike zone all need to be real good or it falls apart. You may or may not yet have heard this from your adult coach, but next time I run into you I...

    That is one of the areas that has been building homes for the last several years and is now taking shape a little... Baseline still undergoing reshaping, but they will get it done sometime. I live 3-4 miles north of you... I could ride the e-bike and get to your place is 10 min or so. I have a...

    I would have to be present and see with my own eyes to be able to say anything definitive. Good chance he isn't allowing the ball to come to his strike zone or is positioned a little too far back.
  9. Advice for equipment upgrade

    You do not need ridiculous money for bat, get anything wood all+ to OFF that fits your hand. The bat in my sig... blade is under $30 USD and is well suited for a beginner or advanced player. It doesn't need to be over complicated. try for softer control oriented modern rubber MED firm at the...

    Hi Blahness... Try this. Take a step to the ball with whatever leg/foot. Extend bat out a little, keep arm bent some. backswing only a little... actually you are doing this as a part of getting bat out there a little... use a short stroke pushed off with the foot some... LOOSEN THE GRIP... and...
  11. Best Rubbers for Harimoto Innerforce Alc

    Hi @TheWinnnner I frequently and right now often proclaim that I was never good enough for the T05 of the last 10 years (but the 2010 version I played well)... and I absolutely CANNOT play any of the Diginiski rubbers to their potential... my impact is not good enough and I am not good enough...
  12. Backhand topspin tutorials are useless

    Once I setup my short FH heavy underspin serve, those deep serves to their BH pips real sudden like become very effective setups for finishes by them. In this regard, I am with you, but I prep my objective first before going there.
  13. Backhand topspin tutorials are useless

    I think with serves they can read well and if it is real short, they can exploit those wide angles you hate... I get that. I may be a warped thinker in this sport, but if I want to wreck their mind, I show them heavy, get them used to it, pull the carpet out from under them, then go heavy and...

    I do not know if I ever banged a BH at you, but I look forward to banging and spinning some BH to BH and being on the other end if we can get time and space at a table.
  15. Backhand topspin tutorials are useless

    Hi @dingyibvs this may blow ur mind, but I think from early on, and throughout the match, it is VERY important to serve short to the FH. Why? I want the player to know from the very get-go that my FH pendulum underspin is HEAVY. They will often put it into the net the first few times. That is...
  16. Backhand topspin tutorials are useless

    I will sometime meetup with @dingyibvs and see for myself if his BH approach and execution are full of it or not. From how i see him articulating things, I doubt he is full of it. I think it is gunna turn out he is one of the under 10% who get it. A different note. In last year's camp...

    Here is a vid of Korea's top amateur pips coach in action at his Yongin club an hour south of Seoul stn. He give jokers the run-around.
  19. Backhand topspin tutorials are useless

    What @dingyibvs is saying here is remarkable... I met him a little under a year ago and had a hit with him... his understanding and application of BH was USATT 1000 level... meaning it was many levels below average. What he just wrote and expressed now shows a level of understanding and...
