He had a very strong BH motion before I started working with him. It just used to fall apart in matches and I told him how to fix it and he initially complained that it wasn't spinny enough. Thankfully, he came round. People don't realize that modern equipment is spinny enough for you to get...

I wish there was a triple like button for this post. I try to stress to my students to do the technique the same all the time, but they like doing sideswipes and weird stuff that doesn't get the job done under pressure.

I think Prause just happened to travel with the German team (just a guess, no hard info as he was coaching Xiona) and was invited to commentate and graciously accepted. I wouldn't hold my breath expecting him to commit to this, though any serious ITTF president should address this.

He made them look comfortable. He might make Fang Bo look comfortable too.

Yes. He makes the whole match worth watching.

I spent about 3 months (by my estimate) rebuilding the timing of my serve at Brett's request. I tried earlier but gave up and then came back to it seriously last year. I had to treat it like learning a new serve. So your issues are typical in my experience. You just have to look at the...

You won't find many eloquent world class coaches and players who can do what Prause does.

So is mine.

Sometimes, you lose less rating points if you retire vs. if you default.

So here is my serve secret sauce video - this change took my backspin serve from good to consistent point scorer. Raises the spin on your serve significantly. Sometimes I feel guilty sharing this since a tip like this is paid content on TTEdge, but I know Brett wouldn't mind and I have learned...

We have a thread here on the same topic: https://www.tabletennisdaily.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?14938-All-things-service Maybe we haven't gotten to tips yet, but I am not going to post to two threads when I find time.

She is to be locked in the dungeon with them.

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me thrice... ZJK is done for me. I will enjoy watching him play but will never have expectations for him.

Natalia Partryka with another great win. ZYL and CM struggling with ZYL losing 1-4.

Was what I got. I didn't ask for it. Could be out of spec rejects being sold on the cheap.

Just as people remember Jordan for being a player on the Washington Wizards instead of the greatest player of all time... or people remember Ali for losing in his final years but not as the greatest heavyweight of all time... or people remember Timo Boll for his recent injuries not for his years...

I bought one and it turned out to be real. Took over a month to get here by international first class mail and was 98g. Infer from that what you may.

You are seriously trying to say that he should stop playing just because he no longer plays at a top 10 level?

A good player is supposed to be able to do anything well. That's not the point. My point is that getting a weak return off a server is a requirement of a good serve. The third ball is strong against weak returns. Good returns shut down third ball and are easy vs bad serves. You can't...

Oh, you have long pips. That explains your attitude. I win a lot of free points on serve vs long pips. I also win points off kills vs low quality returns. I sometimes have to play third ball as well. But solving a serve is not putting the ball on the table, which is how a pips player might...
