This fast low deep side under will come from opponent's BH receive of my hook serve or from their FH pendulum serve... I specifically train FH looping against them now, it's really annoying how many points I lose from these balls.

Played today after a few weeks of not playing. Unsurprisingly the first few games my touch was all off, my short pushes all went too short and went into the net, and all my long pushes went out of the table. Lol... Luckily my trusty BH and chiquita game was still dangerous enough to keep me...

He probably boosts it. A lot of us are too time poor to boost :(

What you can also do is to stay with D05 and learn how to control it. It requires really good technique on passive shots (especially momentum absorbing techniques on block and short pushes) otherwise your shots are just gonna go fast and uncontrolled long all the time. For loops it's also the...

With higher level pips players, they can choose to add to the spin reversal, kill the incoming spin, or even give back the same spin all with minute differences in the contact that they control with their wrist/fingers. It is not as straightforward as what forum members here would want you to...

Online content is not that profitable, and thus he is not gonna divulge his secrets easily when he can charge a bomb for private coaching. Isn't there a saying to not give pearls to pigs, they will simply get trampled on (aka the general public like us)?

This is surprisingly good. As a chinese speaker, a lot of the Chinese transcriptions are also wrong as they contain the wrong words which have the same pronounciation as the correct ones. It might be better to analyze it from the audio itself but im not too sure if the AI is that advanced to...

Lol tbh guy is just lucky he didnt encounter any good blockers with that stroke. Imo penholders have significant advantages in the combo space because they can use both TPB and RPB for max confusion when you use different types of rubbers. Also the FH serves, short game and loopkills with...

So he is just doing fake opening loops (not even that fake tbh) against underspin balls - there is no real acceleration and he doesnt even disguise the followthrough that much. Those are pretty much all just open angle lifts. Against topspin he is actually punching the ball with bat movement...

Wait till you play with those chinese LP/inverted penholders (there's quite a few here). When you give them balls to the BH it could be: a) pivot inverted FH loop b) inverted TPB block (btw includes punch block, short block, fade blocks, sidespin block and chopblock) c) twiddled TPB LP...

it will be close to dead and sometimes even with underspin, yes... my practice partner gives me these sorts of balls all the time lol. basically my antidote to these balls is to adopt the Sun Yingsha method of just opening the racket angle and driving them back early. So if you only know how to...

Yet another member with stupidly low amount of posts decides to troll me... OK you're on the ignore list now. My time is too precious for this shit.

I have wins and losses against ~RC 1500-1600 level players... so I would guess roughly 2000-2100 if you were talking in terms of USATT. But because I play a lot against pips ppl I actually have an advantage over weird style players which is why . It's the consistent af double inverted players...

Yep that is it. Extremely nasty when done right. Hugo Calderano also does this a lot to get pop ups.

Good for you!

Nah, he's not even getting past my serves and serve receives with his age and level, especially if he's not using pips or anti to receive. He doesnt seem to serve very spinny or deceptive even. Also hes way too slow. The only way he wins is if his dead balls cause ppl to wanna wait to loop it...

Doubt WTT will do that otherwise all the old ppl will be leaving the sport - and they are probably much richer than the young ppl in today's world. A lot of old ppl in the sport just can't compete with younger players if everyone played similar equipment and a lot have massive egos. It's the...

It's not required but it is the optimal way to do it...

I pretty much refuse to play in conditions like that. Better just to stay home

Imo positioning is more important than timing. With BH if the incoming ball is too fast you do have to take it early. If it's slow you have to wait for it to come to you. And you have to move into position quite fast with the single step lunges (this part is the most complicated - if it's too...
