You were clear - DerEchte just likes a chance to teach - he is kinda like me, just nicer.

Hey, this thread shows you have amnesia since you are too egotistical to consider yourself an idiot and enjoy discussing such so I am just playing along. I am convinced that the video wasn't really you. It was a clean game that would evolve into something better with time but still a low level...

kowabunga is right - you really need to get some equipment. But post some video first and I can tell you whether you are really an idiot or just an idiot. Huge difference ;).

Well said!!

People should get and pay for the app - it's really valuable now! And will get better too...

For some reason, many people I train with don't get that part. Then they wonder why they don't have a heavy backspin serve at 9-9 in the match. It's training for God's sake!

Well, go to a club and play better players. Ranked players. League players. Plenty of the stuff you are saying is similar to what many basement players who have never been to a club say, just with more sophistication. One of the reasons I went to a clubs to train and become better was...

Yes, but with every change, everything changes. When I Teach, I tell people that playing with rubber without grip creates a lot of habits that are hard to fix. Again, don't trivialize things like speed glue, better rubber and boosters. After all, your equipment must have a brand (and an ITTF...

Doing real strokes with bad equipment can be pretty dangerous. Don't trivialize the influence of equipment in TT. There is a difference between saying that equipment does not determine your level and equipment does not influence the strokes you can play. The former is mostly true, while the...

That's my impression as well. If you (Archo) aren't using custom equipment, you may have the wrong impression of what is happening. But you might. A lot of this depends on your actual level of exposure to high level TT in Finland.

Scientific evidence for a statement with the word "only" is kinda impossible, don't you think? It takes empathy to be able to understand motives so that's the basis of your position even if the exact statement goes a bit beyond that. And sometimes, these things are age-related, so it may not...

Evidence?

Lot of successful people are like that. Just not good coaches ;).

Omega V Asia.

Of course it is hard. But it is possible. It just depends on your level of experience and practice and of course, how you decide to play. That's fair. As others have mentioned, the video quality is low, but you clearly have some good fundamentals on many of your strokes. In my experience...

kowabonga, She plays too fast for me.

True, but given that you are young and train, this video should be a dinosaur by now...

People who learn things as kids don't understand how lucky they are. Seriously. You are being shown the correct strokes before you have years of accumulated bad habits to correct. And before you start thinking you should be better than you are. For adults, the pains and rewards are...

We need some new video - you've been recycling this for a while now on ooakforum... (NL - in full trolling mode)

I am overanalyzing your need to overanalyze in order to sound like the smartest person in the room!
