But it can work well i think with the correct kind of long pimples. Carl Prean would have been some of the best players in the world if he had a better forehand. He showed you guys that it is possible to play that way. Like Falck and Ito is showing that it is still possible to play at a high...

I think a hard tacky rubber could be very fast. But not when you do not do anything, but if you put in the effort you proably can play much harder with a harder rubber than with a soft one. I know that Wang Liqin used to play with a very hard rubber.

You guys proably are pushblockers i assume? Have no one tried the Carl Prean style? play offensive with long pimple. Maybe you need sponge then, not sure. But i think this style would be a good option now when you have trouble getting enough backspin.

Do mostly pushblockers use without sponge. Do not think defenders, like Linda have OX. That would surprise me alot.

Try holding the racket loosely, then the arm Will be that aswell. If you have to change the stroke midswing i think you still have to much backswing. Search in the ball first and almost have it by your racket before you start your stroke. Filming is good. Many Times you know What to Do But...

I think you can have longer strokes as long as they are still explosive and with good acceleration. You also need to be able to recover. But it is interesting to think if you are faster if you have a relaxed stroke with a longer followthrough or if you are faster when you need to stop and tense...

If you have no problem posting a video of you playing, i think you will get the best advice if you do that.

This is proably one of the hardest ways to play tabletennis i think. Difficult and takes alot of energy. How is your footwork? You need to move really well if you want to play like this. I Do not know the long pimples you are using now But i think you should try a long pimple with sponge and...

Yes i enjoy diversity. I think it was a mistake to not allow the old long pimples anymore and make the ball bigger. Due to this i feel that more and more play the same and with less spin and finesse. But It feels like the new ball would suit short pimples okay so Maybe We Will see more diversity.

How Do you want to play with the long pimple? Close or far away from the table?

I think that rubber is one of the more popular now. It is still possible to be good and play good with the style, But i think you need to be more aggressive and have a good forehand attack. In the past it was easier to win with just a safe push block i think. Still works, But not as easy. Still...

In my experience it is harder to move the arm fast and explosive if the stroke is to long. Many of the players i coach have a way to long stroke against backspin, and the problem there is that they move their arm so slow because the swing is to big. I think if We also look at the pros that...

have they played the final? if no, when is it?

The biggest weakness with short pimple is the opening loop. Always surprises me that no one use this more against him. The chinese started doing this after loosing two sets and this made him win the match. Rakza Po do not have much grip, so i think Falck felt that he needed more spin on the...

It is so important to win at work? :) i think you will adapt with time.

Do not matter how long the swing is as long as it is fast acceleration and explosive against backspin. Very difficult to have that with longer strokes. Easier if the stroke is more compact, But Not to short either of course.

This is not a good style with the long pimples today and with the new ball. I think these players will either try anti instead or/and start to become much more offensive because they do not get enough backspin to win nowdays. I will atleast think thay many will try anti instead, know that...

You seem to have a good coach so maybe you do not need our help! I just watched some minutes. I think you can start with these things: taking the ball earlier when pushing short. Now you take it late and the ball will be high. Shorter stroke on both of the opening loops. Bh is better...

Is this a serious question? :) But there are no stupid questions. I have heard that is can be more spin in black rubbers but do not know if this is a tall tale, because we only had red ones before. But maybe it is some truth in it, all chinese use black china rubbers i think. personally i do...

I think with the new ball you can win alot by having a good banana flip.
