I'm rather good at this BH smash, but i was abusing it, trying it even when its obvious im late on the ball and have a high chance to miss... my bat angle for the smash was a bit too open so if i wasn't taking the ball from a little bit above it became very risky. I also use a little bit the...

this story all over Japanese TV again... https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2023/07/27/japan/crime-legal/ai-fukuhara-alleged-child-abduction/

you were much younger right ? you look very slim and fit in this video. BH is very special. The form looks very original to me, but was very effective in this match. the sound of it is very strong.

Long ago, I remember winning a hot match coming back from 0-2 and match points down in a team competition. and after the match, the opponent would be sitting in a corner still stunned and almost crying... or another one down 0-6 or 0-7 in the decider which I won against a kid. he must have been...

i'll answer only #2 Dimitri OVTCHAROV Darko JORGIC and... many choppers use BH serve FILUS MA TE SATO, HASHIMOTO, OJIO Haruna (those 3 players are all girls) PS: in matchplay, BH serve is my #1 serve.

after serving long of course you should be ready quickly. you could try not serving from the corner but like 20cm into the table so you can cover the wide FH easily. if the guy hits a fast drive, most often at our levels he's fully committing to a winner, and if you just block it back on the...

Hi Jeff, i didn't see the whole video, but here's my impression: (+) - indeed you could make some very good BH, like the 3rd point of the match, there's even 2 in the same points. that's the way it should be - receive i think was rather good, notably the no-spin "Nagashi" in straight line...

nets and edges did work perfectly. He should try the aim-the-edge serve next

yes, apart from Gauzy, the one with Lin Yun-ju is amazing, showing how skilled the pros are. There's one with Lin Gao-Yuan where I feel bad for Adam, he's like cannon fodder. Yes, generally speaking all pros are easy on Adam EXCEPT when he's facing a few female players who really have a lot...

I think this video was great but the one with Gauzy was even better. @Gozo i don’t think Adam is a top amateur but he is definitely a top snakeman. And perhaps one of the best round-the-net backhand. This signature shot is even more impressive than his snakes

I must admit Adam has well followed his strategies throughout the game. You can credit him for that

Rather a great half-match ! I played great around half of the time. Unfortunately that never included the last part of a game.

so i was in another team tournament today, Tokyo League Division 5 (out of 7). The level is already pretty high. We were in a group of 5 teams. I was the weakest player of my team and played only 2 matches. That's also because the team was winning fast, we won our 3 first matches 3-0. I had...

There is another qualification tournament for 2024 Olympics this weekend so probably they didn’t send their best players to the Youth Olympics

Is Japan in ?

@ShoutGuy hello i do quite often this exercise with multiball. I think I can give a couple of advice 1) First of all, there is something you do very wrong. you stay too much still between each balls. One of the goals of multiball, whatever the exercise, is to improve your footwork and become...

@JeffM no session is ever perfect. There is always something to be unhappy about. I think you are just being too stressed. You seem to be expecting too much for this competition and putting yourself too much pressure. If I were you I wouldn’t practice before the competition and go running or...

i also prefer harder rubbers with the BH. you need to be active and spin the ball. when receiving with BH i think one of the key point in the technique is to have the forearm including the elbow as stable as can be and try to do most of the action only with the arm and wrist. one of the common...
