Yes, I was going to point that out, but that would be a bit tough on archo and what we are looking for isn't obviously visible in the first video anyway, though experienced players know it is there.

Could you post a video of yourself doing the same drill so we can see the contrast? Curious.

Yes, double bounce short and half long serves are ideal at pro level, but you can serve ideal bounce ghost serves. CNT do it all the time. Trying to do it deliberately and consistently is what causes high serves at the lower levels, but if I look through my videos, I can find some ghost served...

Carl is a chicken-wing loop fan!:mad::p;):rolleyes::cool::eek::D

Every time CCY plays, whether he wins or loses, don't you see the eye of the tiger? If not look closer. It doesn't matter how many times he loses. I am sure if he gets enough chances, FZD will go down too.

Only the winner of stage 1 qualifies. After that, your country has to nominate you if you don't play stage 2. So if they wanted to replace ML now, he cannot play any event at the Olympics. Having the team just play day 1 gives them full flexibility other than the winner of day 1. Had they...

Chinese men are not participating either. IMO, both events were more for the young guns (ZYL and FZD) to prove something. LXX upset the apple cart slightly and LSW is now in shock at what might be a vanishing chance for an Olympic singles medal.

There is nothing of value on the line. The players are all already qualified by ranking. The same thing happened with Ma Long in 2012.

Yeah - I think that sometimes, heavy spin is overrated as the ball gets larger. But it is still a weapon. It's all relative. I saw a guy repeatedly slow loop to Amy Wang's backhand with his - I was expecting her to kill it with her super backhand but she often blocked the ball off the table...

BTW, looping "softly" is a very interesting and ambiguous term - I don't mean lazy looping when I say slow looping. Sometimes, a good slow loop can require just as much effort as a good fast loop and sometimes, slow loops are really medium/fast in some contexts. If you see Der Echte slow...

Raise the spin level. Raise the spin level. You have good spin on your backhand but not your forehand if your game is as I remember it. No one consistently counterloops heavy topspin openers if you put max effort into the spin level. Placement of course is an issue as is variation and...

"Upward" looping motions are fraught with danger. Come around the side of the ball forward and over it - you may combine that with some upward motion if you want some arc, but that can also be determined by contact point. You can only go upward on the back of a ball if you are sure the ball...

What do you consider a high level? And when you think about it, don't you have to slow loop a no-spin ball against a chopper sometimes? Moreso because you can't be sure about the amount of spin on the ball?

Not sure if this is completely true, but I know what you mean.

And deprive laola1tv of their money? To be fair, I think youtube is not accessible in certain countries. But those countries likely have equivalents.

Maybe I forgot the part about me turning green when I am annoyed - you don't want to see me annoyed...

IMO, Primorac is the original argument for banning grunting - Dima and Assar are just sideshows. Maybe my concentration is poor, but nothing annoys me more than someone being silent, then grunting loudly on a shot.

Yeah. His game was hard to read at first but over time, my flat hitting was more consistent than his weird spins - I won maybe 90% of our games if not 100% - they got shorter as we played more. I keep trying to flat hit less, but I keep playing people that make me realize that I might have to...

Yes, Fusion.
