I'd love to hear about your playing style when i suggest a rubber for you. Regardless the blade I would suggest from yasaka would be the Yasaka Extra. If you've been ACTUALLY playing for less than 2 years i would suggest Mark-V But you have rubber much quicker than mark-v already and you may get...

I've heard this from friends quite a bit haha, luckily for me, me and my girlfriend share most of our friends and she'll comment with something like, "Trust me, it's table tennis ;)" Here's a text between me and a friend 3 days ago lol. Green is me, White is him. Here's kreanga's...

I'm not one to get offended by my twig-like properties, no worries.

Yea, went to a P.T. for the first time ever this morning and she said "Wow I've never seen anything like that, we need to fix that" Also Mr. Danny Seemiller told me I need to even them up to avoid back problems in the future aswell as getting stronger on the other side would make my strokes...

I feel really bad about that, I have ADD, and when I come down off my medicine occasionally I get a bit grumpy. My grumpiness came out at that time and I really am sorry about that. Regardless, there is no excuse for me to get frustrated with you Archosaurus. Even if you're ignoring peoples...

This is a very VERY good post that teaches me the understanding of my wrist issues. It explain's things that I feel like I should have known but never tied together. I learned these things in my anatomy and physiology classes but never put them together with my own wrist. It's been a couple...

It does look a lot better with my palm facing upwards on the table, but still a bit off.

just got in bed, i'll do it tomorrow morning. btw it's symetrical with both hands.

This image is amazing. My radial deviation is almost straight, while my resting point looks like ulnar in this photo, then my ulnar looks ridiculous. This is radial deviation as FAR as I can go, makes sense as to why it's so uncomfortable. This is my stationary middle point. this is ulnar...

MY wrist isn't flopping around btw, my stroke stays on a static plane throughout it.

Great questions and comments, it wouldn't be an issue if i was able to move my wrist to a more straightened position during the stroke, but I'm stuck with it downward throughout my acceleration because I don't have the muscle to move it forward. And I am still a beginner/intermediate player so...

I would agree with this, the idea of having less moveable parts is good when learning strokes and whatnot. Then having a cocked wrist would be good to give extra spin once I'm good enough. But the fact that I'm not able to control my wrist on my own and it's just the way gravity pulls on it...

Wrong thread :)

Not necessarily that bad, it makes looping fairly easy for you I'm assuming, but high balls would be more of a struggle than they should be as well as other flat hits. You also probably hit your fingers more often than others do. It's like having your paddle farther away from your body opposed...

I can do this WITHOUT a weight for about 10-20 seconds until my hands start to shake from the strain. Definitely not with a 10kg barbell. I simply couldn't straighten my wrist out with a 3 pound weight (1.3kg) let alone a 10kg weight for a longer duration.

I now realize the word "cocked" wasn't the right way to say it. I've posted real pictures now on my original post of what I mean.

Sorry about that. I'll update the pictures with real images of what I'm talking about.

incorrect, the second picture is cocked and is wrong according to my coach :). gravity is whats causing my cocked wrist, i don't have muscle to uncock it.

yea, this sounds like a really good idea, going to be frustrating taking that step back but I'm sure it will be worth it.

Great advice, but the problem for me is the wrist strength, so I can do maybe 2 shadow strokes with it uncocked. Then entire arm tightens and after about 10 of my arm being tightened up my wrist goes limp again. Once it's limp again I don't have to strain the muscles and I can do my shadow...
