No TT for me today as expected as there is no TT on Thursday down here PERIOD But following on my last post: It is truly exciting to plan a week of tt activity! Going back to the city for a week for me currently is like a child going to a playground and getting to play whatever I want! So...

Truly amazing. The atmosphere. The editing. The level.

I'll be heading to the city for a week, and I hope that I will be able to get my skills polished up for a bit with good practice partners etc. Not sure if that is going to hold until the comp as the comp will be 9 days after my last possible session in the city and I just simply cannot play any...

Yeah he does not toss the ball at all.. Luckily I haven't lost much points directly from his serves. Yeah I wonder if I can call it out, but probably no one at the club does a legal serve except me. By legal, I mean toss it up to a certain height. I suppose I can try to loop them but I just...

Thanks for that analysis NextLevel. I first played him first week of Feb, and I lost to him 3-4. Since then my second match was 4-3 (win), then it became 4-2, and then 4-0, 4-1, 4-0, 4-0. So his style is not foreign to me. And my forehands usually win me the point but he has also improved...

Thanks Wrighty. I blame the camera effect.. It makes me do unusual things which are no good. I have not missed so many serves in the past few weeks.. So I find this very unusual for myself as well.

Yes, it is surprising, but there is literally no one there tonight that can hit some constant forehands for me to warm up. The no 2 player (cap) did not turn up, and I am no 1 player..

Probably one of the worst sessions that I have played tonight, as I have no one to warm up with. Played the no. 3 player first up. Wanted to warm up but he was just hitting left and right, so we just start the match.. My record against him has been very good, but today it dropped, possibly due...

Just got informed that the cap (whom I was planning to film my match with) can't play tonight as he got roped into doing something else. I will still bring my tripod but will have to try my luck to see who else don't mind letting me film our match. Bit annoying but will have to make do with...

I used to think that way too. But I have another friend who told me where I play is the recreation centre, and that is owned by the council. So it isn't exactly a public place and therefore people can say no.

Yes, I have no issue filming my games. But it is other people that have issue with me filming haha.

Forgot to add, I'll be bringing my tripod. So I am hoping I can at least capture 1 match.. (given rural town, I guess I have to start slow and bring in the idea of filming matches)

I'll be aiming to play tmr!! I went to gym yesterday and the day before, worked on most machines, but upper body was on lighter weights as per recovery and then lower body as usual, and then cardio 30min (Sat) and 20min (Sun). Despite the session is after a long day of work, I do hope that...

Nice! Yep I have been to all 3 before. I am in Albany this year though. When I go back to the city, I will go visit those clubs there :)

Hey Shannon, I am from Perth too! Where do you normally play at?

Right, thanks. Yeah I didn't know I would do backspin with the elbow high up, but I guess that is how the disguise comes in to make it difficult for opponent to tell. I am often just doing it with the elbow low as you say and I am only getting slight weaker return if I am disguising it as no...

Speaking about pendulum side top or side under, I have watched alot of videos but I still don't think I can perform it properly. I understand the theory, that you are doing one swing like a pendulum, and where the contact is with the ball: e.g. on the way down, horizontally, and on the way up...

Thanks for that detailed post. I will try that more next Tuesday. I can understand stepping in just when you are about to do a short push, but I don't get how you can step in just when you are about to banana their serve if you want to get in position quick? I would have thought you want to...

Travelled to a club in the nearby town (54km away) with a few friends. It was after a long day at work, but my friend drove, so it was great as I get to have a bit of rest prior to playing. On the way to and fro, we discussed about the competition that we are planning. It is so much better...
