Yes! Agree that the rubbers play a part too! How do you like the Akkad?

haha, you are basically the only one on this forum that is wise enough to use a little slower equipment! That is great! Feel like the majority somewhat overestimate their ability and use to fast equipment.

Proably need a physicist that know tabletetennis a bit aswell? Feel like there are proably many variabes so must be difficult to calcuate.

I think it would be easiest to follow with an evaluation of all the blades in one thread! Can you compare them a bit as well.

I think the guys today would have trouble with the old ball and old serve rules though. At least in the beginning. Saw a match with Shang Kun recently and the opponent hid the serve a bit and he had some serious trouble returning the ball. I can imagine that it was more difficult to train alot...

Thought a harder blade would suit better close to the table?

Try the Primorac! Could work! if you want to buy a blade try any blade that is on the harder side. Rakza PO kind of hard to play with since less grip.

Still about control. Watched Timo Bolls analysis of a game beteween Harimoto och Lee Sang Soo. Basically the only thing he said was that Lee Sang Soo missed to many easy points and that it was no idea to watch more than one set because all the others were the same. He thought Harimoto playes a...

I think we could think a bit more like gym work out in tabletennis. Periodize a bit. It is not so odd if we get injury or pain if we almost only practice one stroke for a long period of time or do almost only heavy exercises every day.

Yeah, but why did we remove it then? Speed glue was bad for the health so can understand that.

Was boosting banned since it was dangerous? Can not remember.

With side spin higher toss helps since it is easy to still get a thin brush because you hit the ball at the side. Harder to get more spin from higher toss with backspin since then you need to move the racket much faster to generate spin. practice!

Pain can be due to everything basically. I think it is more because of to intense use of some muscles in combination with weak or and short muscles. More variation of the training, more strength and stretching will help I think. Try not practicing for a while and see if it becomes better. Then...

You guys can feed to eachother? or do semi-balls! which is basically that he serve long with backspin and then block then starts again with many balls. Or just do the exercise you did but just pick up the ball after the opening. But i still think it is good to not just practice to much on the...

@Richie! I think it is important to try to think about the whole part and not get too focused on just the motion of the stroke. So you can move well and do the stroke, transition from backhand to forehand, when it is irregular and so on. The stroke do not need to be perfect regarding the...

Maybe he is looking for the backhand flick a lot? And sometimes need to push.

Shakehand or penhold? for shakehand try Falck, Johnny Huang, Teng yi, zhan jian, the indian smiriam(spelling?)that play challenger alot?, Jonathan Thimon and Anton Andersson. there are much more penholders.

This is probably individual? Ask the child? I have been a part time coach for a long time and never heard a child complain about this.

I think the majority of young players make their development worse by using to fast equipment to early. Hard to control, maybe stiff so difficult to learn spin, get more power from racket so do not need to learn to make your own power. But probably need to look at their level mostly and not the...

Grip is important, b to much focus on it will get you mad.
