So after almost a year, starting as a beginner, I made the switch to a much less spin sensitive and less fast setup. From, Waldner Senso Carbon with Blue storm Z2 on both sides, to Outerforce CAF with Rozena on both sides. During my first training session my experience was, Oooo no this is way...

Ah now i understand. So thats positive 😁. I have to work hard on my wrist speed and body movement.

Thanks for the link! I am gonna work on it :) Hi Ian, do you mean with 'the motion down' that the direction is going down or the speed is going down? When looking at the video of Craig and his hand movement flexibility i was really laphing about myself. I really have to work on my wrist...

Thanks for the link! I am gonna work on it :)

@NetProphet Wow, thats a lot of info to process. I am glad it is not bad at all. Curious about what is the right toss then? For the back spin you say around the ball. I ahd the feeling i had to lift my elbow a bit more, is that correct then? Like to see the link. I will also do a search myself...

Hi all, Sorry for the casual setting in the video. Just wanted to try out if i had enough space in my garage for practicing serves. It just fits. Directly made some videos of my first attempt doing a reverse pendulum serve. Are they any good or will they all be smashed? Because they have...

Which one of those is most like Rozena ??? Thanks

This week I practiced with this. And guess what, tonight I won from the guy that uses that nasty surf that I struglled with. He uses a very heavy side spin pendulum serve (RH). To let the ball land on the table I really needed, beside angeling the bat to the left, also to sway my bat to the...

Desicions, desicions. I quite inexperienced. Since I have started playing I only played with my current bat. Trying someone elses out for a few minutes does not really help me. I need more time to adjust. I find it difficult to estimate what for difference can be expected when changing from...

That one is not from a series. Catalog says it has limba outer layers.

Thanks for the detailed explanation. Indeed i have not a reel coach and i play at a very small club. I try to implement your instructions in my first following training. @MarekD I am hesitating to switch to a tacky rubber. I never played with it. Does it require a much different technic?

My biggest struggle at the moment is handling very high side spin serves. Mostly I am able to correct the direction but the balls sometimes fly just over the tables end. So I thought a slower rubber would help. I am now trying to reduce the return speed by moving my own bat backwards while...

Hi All, I am currently playing with Bluestorm Z2 on both sides. Was looking to go back to a slower and preferably higher arc Donic rubber. From one catalog graph I concluded that I would need to go to a Bluefire M rubber (red curve) But from a graph on the Donic website I would conclude that I...

Ok, i understand. I know the Pech pong channel. I am praticing with against and with the spin. But it is hard for me in practice. I will try to improve the next couple of months. If i can not control it i switch only the rubbers first. I think to M3. Does the thickness have a big impact or is...

Thanks Lazer, thats good info. First i had my eye on the Waldner gold edition. Is that one more robust? Also good to know that the S2 would be a good choice.

With tapping you mean a more or less short flat (bat angle) hit? I never use that. My problem is with very heavy side spin serves of my opponent, that try to compensate with bat angle for the spin, so the ball goes in the correct direction over the table. But even when i don't make a hitting...

Recently some reading learned me that for making the Bluestorm (tensor) work at its best, it is needed to accelerate the bat during the hit. This means that now i am using a quite short backswing so i can accellerate just before hitting, fast whip. I have to say that this works quite well. So...
