This is true about everything in life, but we need to have good guys and bad guys, lol! And whatever the versions, she was the one that cheated on him. And from what I hear, her mother actually stayed in Taiwan and he has the daughter with him, it is the son that he has been unable to see...

Extended honeymoons do occur amongst a few (fortunate?) couples. When the challenges show up, commitments are truly tested.

I will believe it when your profile reflects it!

Ultimately, the main thing, as you pointed out, is to use something that allows you to develop an advanced spin game. Gozo is still trying to "win" rather than work on his game. He really should bite the bullet and use something that forces him to spin. Even Kristian Karlsson talked about...

So if I am reading you accurately, you have been "nagged" and "lectured" online and in person about your equipment choices. The question is why did you persist in not taking the advice and are the in-person advisors happy with your current change? Obviously, I still think what you are using is...

I tried this recently, I find I personally struggle with the block of the Korbel, I needed to always put something behind the ball for the racket angles I am used to, which isn't the case with the composites or even the Mazunov. But regardless, it is good to try and experience this for an...

That someone managed to get through to him on some level gives me hope. You are absolutely correct. But not everyone is thinking about how thet will play in 2 years time or trusts someone to build out how they will play on 2 years time. People just care about what is happening today. And they...

@Der_Echte should comment as well if he can, but the first thing to note is that the basic advice on spin reversal works best when your opponent is using OX (no sponge) and even then it is a bit more consistent when there is less friction in the pips and they are not as good for hitting. When...

The truth is that sometimes, the reason why you can't hit basic shots consistently is because you aren't using a carbon blade. What some people use to knock a carbon blade (quick rebound) actually helps some players with worse technique play better if they focus on their range of ball control...

It might still be too fast, but honestly, it is a step in the right direction and some people do make it work and tou might be one of them if you have the right approach. The biggest thing is that you have to actively work on spin and ball control with that setup. Not power per se. Do realize...

Looks like the video is gone now. But I saw it before It went

Try smashing a mid high topspin ball with your backhand. Especially if the ball has good topspin. Many people who try to replicate the motion that they think works on their forehand side don't swing through a similar path to what they do on their forehand and often hit the ball long. The...

Yes and modern forehand is Quadri Aruna? Ma Long? Fan Zhendong? Felix Lebrun? Wang Chugin? Truls? Modern backhand is Fan Zhendong? Lin Jun Yu? Alexis Lebrun? Felix Lebrun? Harimoto? Calderano? Truls? Adriana Diaz? Your post makes zeio point about how biomechanics is "underlooked" even...

I have a one week break from relatives visiting so I went to the club yesterday. I have settled on the Cybershape Carbon as my main blade, I suspect its handle just suits me better but I am not mentally ready to hack my Trinity handles. And i think something about Koto outer plies is beginning...

I guess the ease of looping low balls compensates. 🤣

Give us a break, the advice to pivot and use the forehand on high balls is as old as the 38mm ball. Learning to use your backhand to handle more balls is never a bad thing as long as your shot selection is still good. Or maybe Ma Long should never do chop block, he should just work on his...

I have explained it so many times, including on the thread that zeio just referenced here from 4 years ago. If you couldn't understand my explanation then, I have little motivation to explain it now. But the logic is simple and Ttgold on that thread makes the point clearly as well so you can...

Nah, don't give pros credit for always having optimal technique. That isn't the reason why they are pros. That said. Not sure height is the issue. Benedict Olah I think smashes with the beat of them and he is pretty tall too.

It's exactly the kind of thing that the people who claim that follow through doesn't affect ball quality have no way of explaining.
