  1. Why would you use short pips?

    Inverted rubber is much safer since you can create an arc by generating spin and get more marginal for error. Need to move better and time better with short pimples since you ae not able to create the arc. Would say that inverted rubber is basically a better rubber and is a better option for...

    Prove to them that you can study effective and get good grades despite practicing more. I do not think they have any problem with you practicing, they are just afraid your grades will drop. It is possible to practice everyday if you study effective.
  3. FH topspin generations

    I do not think they have more perfect loop than anyone else(relative to good pros). Compared to players frome europe i think they just are much much better at moving and keeping balance so they are able to loop well. I think in general players before had heavier forehand loops? more forehand...
  4. Loop arc height over the net

    - get lower in the legs AND - more open angle - loop more up to make the ball go higher OR -close angle - brush more - use forearm more to get more spin, and therefore more arc
  5. Lower level player using Butterfly ALC and Tenergy?

    I think you can get good results in the moment but your development will suffer and probably worse results in the future.
  6. Why would you use short pips?

    after you have learned the fundementals as counter and stroke, if you are still better and more natural at hitting flat and smashing then it could be an alternative. Make a strength better. Not knowing how to loop is not a good reason.
  7. How to play against Short pimple rubber ( especially killer )

    - Short pimple stroke often have a bit of underspin in it --> loop a bit more upward - short pimple is alot about timing and can only hit at the highest point so need to move more --> play with more variation - less spin with short pimple, so open against backspin is difficult --> serve and push...
  8. FH rubbers suggestions

    Maybe you can try allwood blade? somthing even softer would help you to get spin i believe. How are you working with forearm and wrist when looping?
  9. Why Manika Batra took liking for shabby pimples.

    Am i missing something? Do not know if long pimple rubber can become more frictionless from more playing but i would be surprised if the players did not try to make it more frictionless. I have never heard anyone that thought it was better to use a long pimple rubber if they have used the long...

    Hey! My friend with double pimples have just started a tiktok account. Fun to watch how a good player trains, last year he played the highest leaugue. Also very interesting for players using short pimples on either side. https://www.tiktok.com/@antonander97 He wants me to subscribe but i feel...
  11. FH vs Backspin tips

    Try doing everything more explosive and stop when you are going to hit the ball. Can not start the stroke when the ball already sits on the racket, especially against backspin. You get the spin from the forearm so i think you can try to use it more aswell. I believe spin is as important as...
  12. Talking big.

    Hard to be angry as a physicist if other people with other professions do not understand the physics. I also think it is important to be careful with assumptions about people over the internet, very hard to know really anthing about them. With that said, i think a lot of people would be...
  13. How to play against "wall" player?

    Same tempo and placement is eaaaaasy!!! vary tempo and placement and you will win.
  14. The best height for a male table tennis player

    I have heard that Waldner did not want to grow beyond 1,80.
  15. Backspin flick against backspin ball?

    Much easier to go on the side of the ball against backspin. If you want to flip against backspin like Lin Yun Ju with a closed racket angle you need to be able too accelerate very fast. I also think you can get more power if you come close to the ball, squat low and try to put elbow in front...
  16. Tibhar Hybrid K3 vs Rakza Z

    I have used Rakza Z and the throw was very high. Felt very odd in my opinion, at least on the backhand side.

    BRS! I only watched the first clip. I think it is good that you try to take the ball early with the short pimples. Try to think that before the highest point it is okey to just block, but if you wait it up to the highest point you need to play harder. The spins comes mostly from the forearm and...

    Gozo! You seem to get good quality but i still think you hit it to late. It will be very difficult to change from forehand to backhand if the game becomes faster. Some coaches talks about creating an traingle with the base between the feet and the top edge is where your fingers connect if you...

    Gozo! i keep saying the same thing every time. Biggest problem is still that you hit the ball behind your back when playing forehand. Hard to see from this angle but maybe you are playing to close to the table so it becomes harder to hit in front of you. You will have serious problem getting...

    You go over the ball nice! I think that if you want more power you can get the elbow more in front too the side, but with the downside that the pocket will become much bigger.
