Thanks for sharing the video! I have been trying to do this serve but I am mainly only able to do the one with no spin. I will try to do the other variations.

How do they compare with Rakza X?

I usually change mine every 1-1.5 yr, and I play maybe 2 hours per week

Nice haha. The one that I’ll be participating is RR then ladder.

Now gym. Maybe Diablo IV when it comes out.

Squats with weights are great, especially if one has weakness previously due to some injuries. Cardio to improve stamina.

Played my first session back in the rural club. I thought my touch would be superb, after a rather intense tt week for me. But it seems like without a proper training partner, my skills drop significantly. I could only arrive late today due to work, and by the time I got there, my only...

I recommend arriving the night before too. But it would mean more expenses for you - accomodation. I will be in a similar situation where there is a tournament in another rural town that will take me 3.5 hrs to arrive. I am booking my leave so that I can arrive the day before, play, then have...

Probably inflammation of tendons in the wrist from repetitive use injuries. I would rest until it no longer reproduces the pain on doing the stroke.

How exciting! Let us know how it goes. Will you be bringing a tripod for videos?

Hope you are doing alright balancing tt and busy school work. :)

5 tt sessions in over a week's period. No noticeable injury. Multiple TT videos uploaded. Mission completed. Driving back to rural town tmr. Back to reality.

Thanks Lula! I agree with the need to learn to serve half long. I seem to be able to consistently serve short now, with relatively good backspin. I do serve no spin, or perhaps various degree of backspin, which causes players to push balls up or off the table. I find that when I serve with...

Hoping no one get's hurt by flying rackets. :rolleyes:

Got 1 more video to share here.. 5th session in a week. I think it is as good as it gets for my playing. I feel the backhands are landing which I am happy about, but I am sacrificing a bit on my fh. This is against my friend, who has been coaching kids for 4 hours prior to the match.

Gozo. I have seen this post already before. You have presented your coach's responses to your questions. But you have not answered whether you agree to what he is saying. (despite me asking you 2nd time.) I think we are well aware of what your coach is trying to get you to do as you have...

This. Gozo, this is why I asked whether you agree with what your coach is telling you, which I do not think you answered me. Sometimes, we can also mistake what the coach is trying to teach us. Not every coach understands the needs of their student or what the student desperately need in...

1. Panting after continuous strokes can also be a sign of lack of fitness.. I do agree with exhale while you are doing a stroke. It is very common in gym work / lifting. In TT, I do it too mostly on lifting backspin balls or strong loops. Don't necessarily have to go the extent of Ovtcharov...

Sorry you are right xD I thought most ppl would know me by now. I am the younger one with glasses. :geek:

Today I played my 4th session in the week. It was against 2 friends whom have not played since I left the city 4 months ago. Meanwhile I have been playing regularly about once a week, and much more frequent this week, so I didn't have much issue beating them. We had some close matches though...
