One last thing. Should I stick with d09c both sides when I can only loop with loop with quality in the drills? Feels like drill quality loops: Bh 70% Fh 60% (taking footwork drills into account otherwise for static ones 85%) TrainingsMatches: Bh 50% Fh 40% Real matches Bh 15% Fh 30% Numbers...

I assume from the active players: I really enjoyed watching(live): Filus Anton LS Not so much(playstyle): Fzd Online: Gauzy Truls, LS, WC Harimoto Franziska Omar Jorgic Mengel French brothers but only if they play against each other. Not so much: Hugo - watching his serve prep stresses me...

Those are stuff idc about. He does tomahawk serve where he throws the ball into him. But I didnt call it even though I struggled since I know it has topspin atleast. The only serve I could tell what the spin on the ball was.. Rally wise it felt better to push his service back but I didnt want...

Played him today. Not even close 0-3. I returned his serves better but his blocks and chop blocks short were just better than my offense. He was very scared when I looped with spin and slow. But these shorter blocks and even the long balls that I attacked didnt bother him at all. I varied my...

Here cut the video short again. The order is wrong the drive to loop starts at the end. The one who blocks well is the youth coach. The other 2 drills are with the younger player ~1000 rated. Was focusing on consistency and getting the same topspin quality. Once I played with the coach I...

When driving the ball my hips rotate the same time as my arms. But when looping there is like an 10-20% offset. Talking about the activation sequence. But I don't have it right 100% of the time yet sometimes its at same time and sometimes hips stay rotated.

Well the goal was to get away from this passive slow brush loop style I was doing prior. There is a term called differential or something that basically says to do the other extreme. I am also unsure yet if I need to topspin like timo boll does in that video I posted where he whips the...

I agree with everything you said. I still get the feeling you are trying to give me a hidden message. Because right now I do train and experimented with my strokes and everything. Also never said I expect the changes to happen in a few weeks. I might get frustrated at it but thats part of the...

Yes you described it well that by focusing on one part I was regressing on the other. When I focused purely on thick contact I was not opening my arm for example. When I was focusing on opening arm aswell it was hard to get the right height before accelerating forwards etc. So I am exactly in...

I meant I am deliberatly trying to loop by opening my arm. It's like my mind is set on looping by opening the arm and whipping into the ball. Even though the block comes faster and I should just accept and backswing shorter. That is what I was trying to say. Obviously since I will be hitting...

You dont accelerate into the ball at all. Try hitting the ball more when brushing upwards still. For the first open up loop you stay close to the table don't go back. After the open up double jump back a bit for the next ball and shorten the backswing. I would first practise this vs blocks or...

This is my goal to receive with confidence but not being able to see the spin on the ball makes me lose confidence. Maybe I can try standing further to the left but he might abuse my wide fh then. Not sure if I have enough time to pivot with the fh. Whatever I will try my luck in case I face...

Why should I rotate faster when I am already happy with the speed and pace? My goal was to get reps in against block not to end the rally. He also doesn't give me passive block but gives it back with good pace. My fh loop looks different than from drive. For example there is forearm...

No I watched it in slowmo. I do initiate my backswing using hips. Same with forwards. Only thing about going forwards is I am sometimes only at 10% rotating (starting later) but thats mainly because I don't aim for a hard topspin but more for control. I do need to start brace my core now but...

Do you have timestamps for when he does BS and when he does TS where you saw that motion? My best bet is to memorize it visually.

Right to the core but you have to realize if those basic strokes are efficient enough to give trouble to your opp. If your basic topspin flys so slow and high and gets attacked you might default to just pushing and blocking instead of realizing that you need to improve the quality of your fh...

I used to do pushing matches. I don't do it as much lately but just last week I trained it again. My pushing is usually too advanced for my practise partners. Not that they cant push per se but one good push by me is enough to force them into an error. I would actually try this more in my...

So I should practise like in that 3min long video that I have posted? If the answer is yes. How should I deal with blocks. I feel like sometimes I am late opening my arm and if I am late I also rotate my hips more controlled if I rotate even. Because I just use the incoming speed without adding...

This is why I cant read the spin because I am only used to open flat racket chopping below the ball backspin etc.. but he was creating backspin with open parallel to the net angle. I see no motion upwards only downwards. Even when he does his tomahawk serve it kicks and is not with backspin...

No he very rarely comes. Also they play with the mindset of having those serves as an advantage and not to teach you how to return their big weapon. Also I can return any type of long serve. I also dont mind missing a few. Its just that they all look the same pace and spin wise. I guess what...
