From this position good inverted players can do a lot, from loop (as the 2nd bounce is off the table it can be looped), chiquita, strawberry, short push, long push, sideswipe, etc..

The last straw was after encountering a blatant hidden + no toss server (who even played with pips) who loved to cackle after winning points with his hideous style. There are so many illegal servers everywhere and it is tiring to call out everyone. I know how to deal with every single ball...

Flat out no. She wouldnt have won against Sun Yingsha without the pips for sure.

Lmao technically, ab roller is a great core exercise and i think you can hit harder with more stability with a stronger core so maybe this is the 'boosting' effect indeed.

I think FZD FH is better than WCQ and would be 2nd in the list with Ma Long being no.1. FZD BH for sure is no.1 without question. surprised that LGY gets a mention for FH and not BH. LGY has probably the weakest FH in the CNT imo as he tends to have unstable elbow, but in terms of BH he is very...

Yep. Inverted is only strong af when you have a very precise read of the serve in which case stuff like chiquita can be very devastating. Otherwise pips is just way better. I'm pretty new to anti play but I feel like my level actually increased already compared to double inverted. For me SP...

This is why I switched to anti. Serve receive is way too much of a pain with inverted, especially when so many ppl just serve bullshit hidden serves. With anti it is like uno reverse to their serves lol.

Basically wobblers happen when the spin on the ball is different from what you would reasonably expect from a stroke. Of course if the ball is not round then it can wobble but that is just poor manufacturing tolerances. Or if you have strong wind. A perfectly round ball can only have 1 spin...

Yep, the modern technique is to straighten during the forward swing not during the backswing. It saves a lot of time this way and makes the FH swing more compact.

Basically it happens when the stroke doesnt match the expected spin of the ball which causes these kind of wobbliness. With anti or LP the easiest is to go against the spin (the outgoing ball will still be going with the spin), so the outgoing ball has the opposite sidespin to what you might...

Well you have to have forward weight transfer to loopkill backspin. You only have upwards weight transfer at the moment which is also OK because you have good arc. The other possibility is using fake loops ie lift the ball up and then do a fake followthrough like an opening topspin. Pips...

This is why, double inverted is actually a weakness at the amateur level lol. Look at how physically easy it is to play with LP/anti. This guy is not even fit and doesnt move well...

Yeah this is pretty nasty, if you dont have good footwork youll be toast. But another thing to consider is the placement and quality of the push you gave him. If you pushed deep and fast to his wide BH there is no way he can sideswipe it very fast with wide angles to your deep FH. But if you...

It depends on what shot you gave him previously, it can really only make the ball dead or reverse the spin, very limited in spin production. I use sideswipes extensively when I use anti. In fact, I view it as a safe attacking shot for my anti play. I have been in the other side (inverted vs LP)...

Best counterlooper for BH is Fan Zhendong - also imo he has the best overall BH too. Imo WCQ is not even close - many of his BH counters are actually risky abbreviated strokes more like punches which is why when he is not on point he can miss a lot of those. FZD's BH counterloops are full blown...

Best counterlooper in the world is no doubt Ma Long, because he has imo the most precise spin and placement reads in the world. He destroyed FZD (who has one of the highest quality opening topspins) with this shot in many occasions.

Everything is relative. Harimoto doesnt vary his loop or even chiquita spin a lot which is why it is relatively easier to counterloop his openings. If WCQ played against someone who varies their opening loops a lot like Timo Boll, he wouldnt be able to do it that confidently.

Tbh when I was double inverted i never liked playing with defensive chopper. The amount of spin variation coming back at me would be way too much, i hated having to deal with the spin variation. But now with antispin on my BH, i can use their chops against them by directly sideswiping them to...

Lol i can warmup with everyone, no matter if they try to hit hard shots or whatever, it doesnt matter. But i think now, there are some players who dont want to warmup with my anti...

Not sure if 'slow' is always good. Slow setups forces you to learn how to use body to hit hard, but fast setups really punish suboptimal control strokes like short push if they are not done correctly. If you can short push sidetopspin serves with primorac carbon + dignics, you can short push...
