Not really I was just being silly, I guess me and Carl are a bit lost on the rest of the forum :P

lol i think WiWa is winning atm I've only given out 1 point hah

I think Ma Long's career has been plagued with unfulfilled expectation to be completely honest, he was supposed to be the next World Champion. True injury did set him back in part but I wonder if/when he will win a major title like the World Cup (he hasn't even made a final), World Champs or...

hah yea I'll keep that in mind and you can go out and earn a point, I'll give you a point if you can trick WiWa into thinking you're serious again in another thread :P haha

Usually I will use my set piece earlier in the match so that I can figure out whether or not it will work when I really need. I have my usual short side top to the forehand expecting a flick to my backhand, pivot and slay it down the line. If that's not effective I will do the same service...

Well I'm glad I brought the post back to life it's providing some good entertainment ;)

lol Wiwa are u just disagreeing with everyone for fun? haha joking :P

As for the main thread I recommend you plan your sessions so you can use your time most effectively. Start off doing basic exercises like 2 point and 3 point forehand drills which are great for your footwork and consistency of your stroke and timing over different points of movement around the...

I'm assuming they are short serves if you are trying to flick, have you ever considered receiving short? This can be just as effective as flicking in limiting your opponents actions, and to answer your question yes I also sometimes push long. You have to see what you can do with the ball, if you...

Well it depends how the ball is coming back. You need to have serves which allow you to expect a certain return. For example I serve a short side top kick serve short to the forehand which breaks the table (im left handed), I expect that ball to come back topspin crosscourt back to my backhand...

I see Schlager as an ambassador to the sport and a student of the game. In his career as an athlete he was an amazing player but I feel he has stepped back from that career a bit lately, as you said Yosua he makes great personal sacrifices for a much greater good, a very honourable cause.

lol WiWa 1 - Yoshua 0 Nice words though Yoshua and you are absolutely right.

No comment I'm just going to assume everyone knows what I'm thinking here lol What do I think? Well let's just say I won't be trying to model my outfit now hahaha

So people what are your set pieces? :D

Oh my you simply must write a thread and do a tutorial video XD

heavy forehand spin, thats a new one which direction does forehand spin go Dan and which side of the ball do I have to contact to get it? :P hehehe

For now in the fast play just concentrate on blocking and counterdriving while you spend time focusing on backhand looping against backspin first. One step at a time :)

Well really if you are having problems with your backhand loop you have 2 options. You can either do multiball where you have the opportunity to hit a lot of balls and work on getting the technical aspect of the shot right and of course having a lot of balls to find the most efficient shot for...

To be honest I think they are overlooking the chances of Bastian Steger, he's a force to be reckoned with in Europe now I think if he's on form he has a good shot at the title too.

Nice play, hes not very aggressive and I think you really took advantage of that, lots of nice 3rd and 4th ball attacking with your forehand, still a little passive on the backhand. With him it was not so much a problem because he didn't capitalise on the weaker play. One key area he managed to...
