    As you know in my previous post i was out for about 5 months. I normally take a lesson every Saturday from my coach and this was the 4th time playing since coming back from injury. Played at about 75%. 1. I am very bad at stepping in and lowering my right side to rotate into a forehand loop...

    Yeah, i will be more determined next Saturday to go half speed and relax. I go too fast then i tend to lock up the wrist and have no natural hand rotation. I learned that with no natural hand rotation, there is no spin and arc. Maybe i should be on drugs to slow myself down besides the anti...

    I remember our conversation and have tried to fix things. Yes in fact he was trying to correct one of his junior students this weekend(1900 rated). This junior watched too many ZJK videos and started locking/closing the angle of his forehand loops and created many issues such as sidespin loop...

    These are some of my coaches from my club. I just took a lesson with GYJ last Saturday. I really like to watch this video slowed down to .25 speed on YT. This helped me recognize the wrist snap that i was missing in my forehand loop. I used to lock out my wrist too much. This one is for my...
  12. Killing spin

    Did somebody mention my name...lol I have been slap happy since i was 12 years old kid. So it has never left me. My coaches always advocate spinning the ball back because it is a safer technique. Flat hitting against any type of incoming spin includes 1. overpowering the incoming spin with force...

    Saturday...Took a 2 hour training with one of my coaches. Things i tried to work on. 1. Consciously took it slow on my forehand loop. Trying to generate more spin and more arc. I find that i am not snapping my wrist when looping, therefore there is no arc in my loops. 2. Noticed that on my fh...

    NextLevel, Thanks for the recommendation. May try T80 on the next EJ splurge. Spent too much already booking 2 night stay in downtown Philly for this upcoming weekends Women World Cup. I felt relatively comfortable switching to MX-P and T05 coming off from H3. They are much easier to control...

    Last weekend went to my club to train with one of my coaches for a hour before i went to meet the Goon Squad in the NYC get together. 1. I decided to heed the advice of many online friends(NextLevel mainly) and play MX-P on my forehand and T05 on my backhand. Previously i was using H3...
