  1. Croatian player loses his sh#t

    its a matter of perspective. a calm guy with his technique would win rather easily. the chops are way too high
  2. Croatian player loses his sh#t

    at some points he really plaed foolishly but thats normal if ur having a bad day and u feel that u deserved a point although u lost it because of a stupid mistake. you may win against a defender 3-0 4-0 but the feeling you have afterwards is like my god, he really pushed me to my limits. I...
  3. Croatian player loses his sh#t

    I totally feel for the guy his technique is superior to the defenders quality of chops but he hesitated so much because he lost some easy balls. once a defender gets to you and u start doubting about your stroke it feels like a slow death lol. so patience patience patience :P
  4. ITTF Reaction to Timo Bolls critics of tuned rackets

    Notice that the speed isnt the problem, its the tacky rubber which produces more spin and europeans find it difficult to adapt to. Of course the national team batch of rubbers is superior than the normal H3 but I dont think that the chinese are actually "Cheating" If you listen at the jorgen...
  5. Something to think about regarding technique

    Maybe some people feel better i dont know but I dont quite think so cause almost every decent player I have talked with likes it better touching only the tip. Not because of the feeling but the sense of accuracy and relaxation that this "technique" gives. Now as nextlevel said we all do things a...
  6. Something to think about regarding technique

    Its a 100 % checked advice my friend. You feel the ball with the tip of your index finger not your whole finger. Just bounce the ball your way and then my way and observe what nerve is activated and where, u cant feel the ball with the rest finger as you feel it with your tip (or to be more...
  7. Something to think about regarding technique

    well by definition a slap is a flat contact, when you slap someone you dont brush his cheek do you ? :P dont get terminology too seriously, a "slapping" movement of the wrist can also be used as a term on a loop/flick
  8. Something to think about regarding technique

    position of the tip of the index finger is also crucial. the index finger should not touch completely the paddle but only the tip of it. this way the wrist is completely relaxed and you can guide the ball with the finger
  9. ITTF Reaction to Timo Bolls critics of tuned rackets

    When Shararah (indian/canadian) was president for so many years there was no measures taken. Thomas weikert (german) gets the presidency for a 1.5 years and boll openly speaks out about the issue. Those who remember boll's past interviews he never called out the chinese specifically about...

    Some digging on my flash disks and voila here is your video. Sorry for the quality and ratio (cellphone camera) it's not a serious training session but more like "fooling around with two friends" . I'll make sure to post more footage of serious matches or training although the greek divisions...
  11. Something to think about regarding technique

    Well you convinced me with that bold sentece I like the way you approach this issue. Long time ago i had lots of matches but my hard disk was destroyed. I didnt want to upload them cause i know my mistakes very well I dont need the net users to tell me what im doing wrong ...so I was thinking...
  12. Something to think about regarding technique

    i honestly dont remember who critiqued malin cause the whole thread was spammed and derailed. but I can assure you that he could be no4 in greek national team if he didnt gave up at an early age. of course this does not mean that what he said about jim butler was correct or polite. He also...
  13. Something to think about regarding technique

    Are you being sarcastic cause next level i havent post any video of me only videos of 2 serves recorded years ago. You can search ttfrenzy on youtube. if I find a reason to post a practice session or a match I will. But like i said a few days ago, I can always post a video of me crushing decent...
  14. Something to think about regarding technique

    I only disagree with 3. The fact that someone has not posted videos does not mean that he will not be nice. being courteous is a matter of character after all. One of the top 10 players in Greece was considered "rude" and "insulting" by members in mytt because he said that jimmy butler vs kunal...
  15. Something to think about regarding technique

    My thoughts exactly, Nextlevel rating points dont mean nothing to me personaly. It is just an indication and 2600 in usa TT does not mean that he could cope in the bundesliga in the 90's. Bundesliga back then was a small european championship. EVery europe beast played there, maybe he was good...
  16. Something to think about regarding technique

    did he ever play at the bundesliga?Executing perfect forehand topspins is easy when the opponent cant read your serves or when they give you easy balls. I have watched some of his series via a friend, he is really good at teaching fundamentals to freshstarters but he lacks the details needed to...
  17. Something to think about regarding technique

    actually a very small portion is for free. brian pace is advertising his videos to earn money nothing wrong with that. but dont expect to learn a certain technique through a free video. even 2 hours of video cannot match a real life training with a coach. Brian is a decent player but this does...
  18. Something to think about regarding technique

    off course it is :P who said it isnt. your technique is just fine and very relaxed as it should. once you have steady feet during contact and weight transfer u will notice much better results, im glad to help
  19. Something to think about regarding technique

    Oh and another thing, his feet are moving a little after the contact is made which is even worse, so the whole footwork thingy is out of rhythm and coordination with the ball. All in all his stroke explosiveness is coming only by his wrist forearm and waist, the feet and hips are almost useless
  20. Something to think about regarding technique

    Well you are executing a different stroke there which requires different footwork. I think this advice is solid because 1. he loses momentum during the stroke cause his feet are not on the ground 2. he gets immediately too close to the table after the stroke, which requires a step back...
