  1. Improve my FH topspin

    I think it looks pretty good. The most important is that the balls go over the net. So you must be doing something correct. But i still think you could try to relax the arm more, so the arm will become more extended and by doing so i think you will get more swing and more use of the forearm...
  2. How to get explosive forehand power (with Paul Drinkhall)

    This seems like a nice video! I have not yet watched it yet, but i feel that it sounds strange to take it before the top of the bounce. I would think that if you take the ball at the top of the bounce, the ball is just a little higher compared to just before the top of the bounce and you then...

    The game is more physical with the new ball so it is harder for the body. But i feel that if you are in good physical shape and still need to recover 2-3 days you might need to work on your technique. Maybe im totally wrong here, just guessing. But then again i played my first tournament last...

    Is you Ecthe and the other guy the same guy? :) i was thinking about it but it felt a little funny to ask. I also think it is hard for everyone to make a living of playing tabletennis. But i do not know if it is harder for smaller tabletennis nations? maybe, i would think that atleast when i...
  5. Current short pip forehand players?

    Why do people use it? I think that if you try to learn to make spin with the forehand, but it do not work out any good and you have a more natural flathit compared to the loop maybe short pimple can be a good alternative since you smash with short pimple instad of making spinny loops. I also...

    Haha, you guys do not seem to like eachother :) I have no problem that people do not agree with me. That is fine, everyone should have their own opinion. And i do not want to be rude against Americans and say that there level is low or something. Everyone is doing the best they can with the...
  7. [LHTT #52_Match in China] Merciless Attack by Coach

    Okay, to be able to see how it looks? we do not have mirrors here. Yes, that was my point. I think it is bigger risk of practicing the wrong technique with a ball since it is harder to do compared to shadow training. Shadow training should proably be done with a coach, otherwise the purpose of...
  8. [LHTT #52_Match in China] Merciless Attack by Coach

    Okay, it is really interesting to hear how others do it. Like you said, there are several ways to become good at tabletennis. I find it interesting that they do not teach so much and just go for it. I think that if the players know why they do stuff and understand how to do it it will be easier...
  9. Allwood for FH oriented and Composite for BH oriented players

    I do not know him personally, i just had him as a coach at a training Camp and i did not bother to look or ask what he changed to. If you google it seems like he plays with Hadraw SR, which might be true. I also found it interesting that he tried Tenergy Hard and did not like it. He really...
  10. Current short pip forehand players?

    I think these guys could already by mentioned and it may be hard to find footage of some of the players. Mattias Falck, Zhan Jian, Teng Yi, Yang min, Jesus Cantero, He Zhi Wen, Yan Sheng, Qian Cheng, Sushmit Sriram, Liu Gouliang, Sun Jian, Anton Andersson, Jonathan Thimon, Wang Jianfeng, An...
  11. New blade donic 2019

    A friend of mine have the blue one. I agree that the handle is very comfortable. Almost like the old Jo Shape blades that were more thin at the top of the handle i think. Why did they stop doing these? or atleast i think it is a different, it feels so.

    Okey! that do sounds scary! I bet they were surprised that you served in their forehand haha :) If one of my players play against anyone from Nortull we will change their racket to a racket with funny rubbers and hopefully it is you they are going to play against haha :) Good luck in Enköping!
  13. Allwood for FH oriented and Composite for BH oriented players

    Good for you! I think alot of young players, including me would have become better players if we did not speedglued. It was fast and fun but i do think alot of players made their developement worse since the rackets became to fast and it was harder to learn the strokes. And it was time...

    It was impressive that you won alot on serves against better players! I think it was smart of you to serve towards their forehand when they have short pimple on the backhand, since the short pimple is not so sensitive against spin. I play with short pimple myself pretty much how you could play...

    Okay! Nice to hear that! My city is not as big as Stockholm, but i also feel that it is alot of players in smaller clubs in my area that maybe would like to have some organized practice and help with their strokes. I think it is pretty bad that it is so difficult to become better at tabletennis...
  16. Butterfly Viscaria fake or original

    I was going to ask the same! How new is the blade? I thought all new blades had that hologram thing on the handle.
  17. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    Well done! How did you play? maybe you played alot with your strengths? or did you find their weakness? What was the tactic? no nerves? or why did it go well? I think it could be smart to try to think what you did this time when you think it went well and try to do it next time aswell.
  18. [LHTT #52_Match in China] Merciless Attack by Coach

    I have a somewhat interesting story about the above. A old coach of mine, coached a pretty high level team and they had an old chinese in their team that used to be good. He had once came very far in the chinese national championship for a long time ago. I also remember when he played in my...
  19. [LHTT #52_Match in China] Merciless Attack by Coach

    Good points! I agree that learning and practicing the fundementals is very important! But i do think it is very important to not be like robots when we play and try to think why we do certain exerccises or why we do like we do. Try to have a purpose with alot of shots, especially serve and...
  20. [LHTT #52_Match in China] Merciless Attack by Coach

    I agree that if you have a hard time to get time to practice tabletennis it would be good that you practice stuff that you actually use in a game. I do not think everyone in swedish tabletennis think like i do. We proably get affected alot by the coaches we have had as players. I had coaches...
