  1. TPB Penhold Short Pips or Inverted

    TPB is best for OX LP hahaha
  2. What serve should I use?

    If they push it to the BH corner yes this is the easiest spin for a BH opening loop. The problem with hook serve is when they push with their BH against the spin, long to the middle or down the line to the FH. It is not a difficult receive even for amateurs, but you do need a pretty strong FH...
  3. What serve should I use?

    Imo one of the best serves is heavy pendulum sidetopspin to the opponents short extreme BH corner - the ball must exit the sides of the table at a huge angle. If they try to loop it you mentioned you have great blocking skills - just aggressively block it wide to their deep FH and you will...
  4. How to deal with no spin long balls?

    TLDR, loop with more spin over the top of the ball and you wont miss it.
  5. How to deal with no spin long balls?

    The reason why WCQ missed is because he was preparing to counterloop FZD's BH loop so he was positioned a bit farther away, FZD used his BH to float back a shorter high ball and now he needs to move in to kill the ball, so it is not a simple "long no spin ball". WCQ did well and almost nailed it...
  6. What’s Better: Playing Hard or Playing Smart?

    It helps when the opponent pushes almost all long balls on the BH and doesnt punish them :)
  7. Is it unfair to say “yes”/“cho” when the opponent makes an error?

    Not too sure why everyone says this nonsensical word rather than a fist pump "Yes" or something like that. I even seen badminton players cho so unfortunately it may have been infectious...
  8. World's Fastest Table Tennis Serve - Asuka Sakai Still Got the Moves!

    Anders used it in a real match, so he is a bit cooler lol
  9. Help with technique and match analysis

    it is not banned in the rules officially... but you should do fun things anyways!
  10. World's Fastest Table Tennis Serve - Asuka Sakai Still Got the Moves!

    Lol having a close to player cam makes this serve even more ridiculous. This is literally like receiving a powerloop right from the serve!
  11. Help with technique and match analysis

    Yep i can play with my left hand with Cpen LP/SP decently. There was a period i played with both hands simultaneously which was also very fun, opponents were ultra confused because they had to face shots from LP, SP and double inverted. I even won with it against some decent players haha.
  12. I'm being bullied at my club.

    Tbh this just typical in TT. I have encountered so many of them over the years. I believe other TT players have similar experiences. There is something unique about TT which attracts toxic personalities, which I did not find in other sports. And usually those are the players with illegal serves...
  13. Help with technique and match analysis

    Great tomahawk serves! And the FH looks nice in general (although it is leaning towards hitting a bit too much, I think a heavier topspin contact would serve you better, but it is already decent!). But on the BH it seems that youre mostly just reaching out in front of you to play a counter or...

    Maybe some of those technique peer review sessions he had with Fang Bo paid off handsomely! Those short pushes and BH loopkills he had were really incredible this time around.
  15. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    Yeah i still use this concept as a fake opening loop against backspin balls that drift long (it doesn't quite work against sidetop serves) - it is quite effective to get people to block into the net especially if you can sell the followthrough better. In this clip, imagine if the guy closed the...
  16. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    This is side + backspin for sure because his bat angle is super open on the followthrough meaning he brushed the bottom half of the ball with force going right + upwards. Ma Lin and Chen Qi loved doing this vs this exact half long FH serve exiting the sides of the table. There is a sidetop...
  17. National Games of China 2025, 11/9-21, Guangdong/Hong Kong/Macao

    Well, it did not look 50-50 at all even then. WCQ basically had to rely on illegal serves and other short game tricks to take a few measly wins against FZD. Now that serve is gone - FZD's advantage in the topspin rally is even more obvious in this match. Even in this match, WCQ actually got...
  18. I Challenged CHINA!

    Funny that only a ex pro and 2 amateurs with pips beat Dan, pretty clear what works well!
  19. National Games of China 2025, 11/9-21, Guangdong/Hong Kong/Macao

    Tbh FZD was just kinda fooling around in league(+randomness heavy 5 game matches), but here he is dead serious and motivated, and the results speak for itself.
  20. National Games of China 2025, 11/9-21, Guangdong/Hong Kong/Macao

    No contest even in the final. FZD shows why he is a grand slam winner - the final boss
