So I got decent at opening loop on the BH side a while back, then moved on to BH counters, then BH loops. I decided to move back to the BH opening loop this past week, this time focusing on kill shot quality. I was trying a while back, but the form was terrible. I decided it's time to break...

It'd be tough for XP to get past Moregard. He's a much more difficult opponent for XP than Felix IMO.

SYS has gotten much better on the BH side, though judging by her performance against the Indian team she may not be as great against pips.

He's equating the two in the sense that cheating less is not morally better than cheating more. Cheating more does give you a bigger advantage though, so those who cheat more will get called out more IMO, and not just because they're winning more.

I think she's been playing about the same, this is the last match I watched them play:

Watching some of the short form replays available belatedly onYoutube and man, He Zhuojia is speed running this tournament. 11-1, 11-1, 11-4 against Zeng Jian, then another 3-0 victory against Zong Geman. Too bad she'll be facing WMY next who's a master at playing against pips, I would've like...

KNY showed her inexperience there, can't play passive there with a big lead in the deciding game, need to continue doing what got you there. Every point needs to be 0-0.

I think Felix's issue is that he doesn't do anything particularly special, he's just exceptionally solid in every phase of the game. Against most others, this allows him to be very consistent in coming up on top, especially in tight games when he can fall back to his solid-as-rock fundamentals...

Ma long vs LGY, World Cup finals!

Ammonia is fine since it's not a VOC, and you can rest assured DHS #15 will be fine since that's all the CNT uses.

Looking back at my recent equipment switches, I'm starting to wonder if playing with an equipment that's worse for the shot you're working on may actually be an advantage for someone working without a coach. It was so difficult to generate quality with the W968's BH that I worked so much on...

Many people, like the OP :ROFLMAO:

Don't try to correct it in matches, TT is too fast and there are too many elements involved with each shot that it's useless to work on any technique in matches. The best you can do in matches is remind yourself before each point to move, but it won't happen unless you've already trained...

I do recommend focusing on footwork first as well. You can't use your body before you learn footwork. I tried that at first (disadvantage of learning without a coach, for sure), and I ended up having a big disconnect between my body rotation and my arm swing, leading to me subconsciously...

The issue I found out is that you can't really do both at the same time. Either rotate with the body or actively swing your arm/forearm, but not both at the same time. I recently worked on my body rotation quite a bit and got much better at it. I thought about strongly accelerating my...

The common reason is footwork (and by that, I mean also body positioning in general). His feet are glued to the ground during those loops, because he's standing already at where he needs to be for the balls you're serving. Will that be the case in games? Of course not. A simple and quick way...

Nah, I'm using different sheets for different blades. When I reboost I glue them onto the same blade they were taken off of.

With 2 moderate layers its kind of what you typically see. With 3 it starts curling up on itself (i.e. past a semicircle)

On this particular sheet it'd be 4 moderate layers and 2 thin layers (played for 2 months, then switched to Viscaria with a different sheet for 2 months before switching back). I'm still figuring out how much to boost, when is it ready for play, etc. With the Viscaria I started out with 3 thick...

How would you compare it to the D05? I actually have a sheet of it, wonder if they're similar. I've only tried it briefly on the W968 for my BH, though I imagine I'd have a different appreciation of it these days. The issue with the W968 is that it's very hard to get that 1 inch punch stroke...
