    Hit last night with 3 people. First 2 - I just blocked for them. 3rd partner - my first time hitting with him. Seemed to be steady enough flat blocker which really let me progressively rip my FH topspin/FH loops. Initially conscious of being close to the table, shorten my stroke, right elbow...

    LOLOL IIRC i first met and played Der at 42andbackpains club on one of the Goon Squad NYC missions. 42&bp, Carl and PPH were there. We played doubles but sadly didn't video the matches. I saw plenty of rambo loops from Der!

    Will try to catch up on vids later during lunch. Fast report on last night: i didn't have my glasses on, played on a table close to the entrance with white walls. When I play, i don't wear glasses. Really hard to pick up the ball sometimes off of the white walls coming at me. (begin ttmonster...

    Sadly I'm busy with month end/start reports ... taking a brief break to check in. didn't watch NL's grip vid or JeffM's vid yet. Will briefly comment that IMO, for a PH, sanding of the wings is essential - once the comfort is there, the mind is not distracted by the 'biting' into the fingers...

    One night, before my partner showed up, i saw Coach John practicing serves in the basement on the first table. We chatted a little, ends up he is very good friends with someone who used to play at my old club, the firehouse back in the 1980's! He asked if i wanted to try to return his serves as...

    ack on my old man memory, i now recall you mentioned it either on a thread or in pm. i played for a year at WC. Mostly in the basement and luckily, usually the first table near the staircase. Although if Coach John Z. has a lesson, he will request the table and actually wait until we are...
