<3 !!! With my recent shortened FH loop stroke, as well as RPB, I've yet to test myself against MB ... Thank you Sir!

Went to hit last night... feeling out of it though... neglected to bring a banana ... i hit some, sat down, rested, ate some chocolate, went to hit again, still out of it... :( "K" said to me, "You improved!" I felt my strokes (right or wrong/good or bad) was always there, it was just a matter...

OH MY GUOYUEHUA!!! As if I don't have enough in my mind to screw myself up with!!!

Thank you monster! Still working on taking the ball earlier. My form actually isn't proper/efficient ... also working on that - missing core rotation as well as periodic flying elbow. I jedi mind trick myself LOL Thank you again monster!! EDIT: in 2nd vid ~1:27-1:30 / 1:51-1:53 / 2:22-2:29 -...

hit for 2 hrs straight, was tired and ready to go home. worked with my regular partner, P, and we warmed up FH to FH, i also worked in my short stroke close to the table loop. Then we served and volleyed. i suggested to him that after the serve to try a controlled slow spinny loop... yeah it...

I will ask him and his partner if they are ok with me videoing them

In the 1980's he was 2000+, he is still a steady chopper now, last year, had an operation in his knees or hips, but he's back. It is amazing to watch him gracefully and effortlessly chop these 150% power shots!

and here i thought you coverted to PH lol enjoy and have fun Sir! EDIT: you mentioned getting older ... at my club, there is a member who is the 2nd or 3rd oldest member... 81 or so! I have seen him play 30+ yrs ago, then i took the 30 yrs, started playing again about 3 yrs ago - he's still...

Good luck and have fun Sir!

last night, 2 clubmates/friends wanted to check out a new club that opened. one of them knows one of the coaches there. so i tagged along. had fun, i hit with the coach for a little, hit with my 2 clubmates a little. then the coach asked me to hit with his student. she was very consistent and...

What doesn't kill you makes me quote Nietzsche :)

Reposting from a different thread one of my posts from last year or 2 yrs ago: After I retired Excalibur, I used as my primary blade back then, an Avalox P700. I didn't name it, but I took it a step or 2 further ... am I the only TT player geeky/stupid/batty to do this? "batty" ... get it? I'm...

JL, IDK how much the American Hinoki with 2 Tenergy FX-80 weighs as I got it as a prize from NextLevel's contest 2 yrs ago and I have nothing to weigh it accurately. With the smaller paddle size though and the hinoki wood, I am able to try to play RPB. Prior this setup, an obstacle for me to...

One of my mantras: "Progress not perfection." ~Denzel Washington as Robert McCall / The Equalizer (2014) Progress report: 1. In ~6 months of somewhat serious SH BH hitting and then RPB hitting, i have made progress in the stroke itself. May not be picture pefect form, but i've come a long way...

Hit last night ... felt ok, didn't have a chance to really work on stuff i wanted to work on -- too many members. Had a chance to hit with one of the coaches there for the first time. A few weeks ago, he watched me hit and gave me a tip on my TPB punch/block. Something I knew but forgotten over...

Deeply honored Sir! But I think the others are way more technical than I will ever be. At least in describing specific things. I'm a simple man really, i pick up a racket, slap on a rubber and hit ... i either like it or not, i see the effects it has on my strokes/game and i cannot get into...

LOLOL, no one called next, and I was having fun too.

Being an oldschool PH, i was not used to the weight of 2 inverted and my wrist hurt also after an hour or so. So I gave up on trying to learn RPB. 2 yrs ago, got a blade via NextLevel's Christmas contest which coincidentally is an American Hinoki CPen. Not sure if it's custom made for the...

Hello shinshiro: There are more experienced/better PH than me on this thread. Hope they chime in. I'm a CPen, I have not tried JPen all that much, vaguely recall i didn't get used to the big handle. I am somewhat unorthodox and have the handle closer to my first knuckle. I curl my fingers...
