I've got 2 big tournaments this weekend; i will have the opportunity to have a private lesson on Friday but not sure i can play again tomorrow or Thursday. Yday 2hours with our Korean TTD friend, today my usual teammates. I feel in great form, I'm not winning that many training matches...

the FZD slow motion is nice to see but the translation is really horrible. it doesn't make any sense to me... anyway thanks for the videos... btw my coaches say its NOT so necessary to hit the left side of the ball. Maybe its just a message to tell me not to try the flick against too difficult...

@Archo i vaguely remember some old vids and i feel you have improved quite a bit, from total beginner to amateur TT player, even if its at the lower levels... You are definitely putting some spin in your shots, and i feel you are not too tense and rather relaxed, which is good. There is a lot...

I'm practising here on this video as you see, i'm quite far from mastering this stroke. But I'm working on it. in the middle of the vid, the coach reminds me about taking more backswing with the wrist and it gets a bit better. We can see a glimpse of him executing the stroke correctly. He's...

At the beginning don't try to make the chiquita that pros do, with both a lot of spin and speed/power I can't do that all the time, and i'm not even trying, or only if the ball is really easy. Try to put it on the table first. Chiquita is about sidespin, so really try to take that maximum...

the problem with Tenergy , you will probably like it, and don't want to change... and you will end spending up a lot (like me)... I'm sure there are plenty of good, similar rubbers, but I don't want to try them. No time to waste for that. Any hard sponge tensor rubber from a main maker should...

However good you get with chiquita, i think its too risky against good backspin. but if its only side spin, or light backspin its possible to go for it, and its better not to hesitate and try to put as much of your own spin. against reverse pendulum i'm not at ease as well. but i think it works...

Yes I thought about bringing one but I was afraid to be too ridiculous so next time...He said he was happy and would come back so...

semi final Yoshida - Yoshimura Kazuhiro its not in the vid: in the decider, at 5-7, Yoshida serves twice into the net... 5-9, its over...

so you left out Korea for good ? you have to change your flag then... its confusing...

Today Schlaftablette paid me a visit from Korea. We had a nice knock together for more than 2 hours. He even played some fellow Koreans who are based in Tokyo whom I introduced to him. He didn't lie or brag and was really at least 2 levels above me. We did various drills and ended with a game...

Well not against ueda....

Yoshimura and Oshima didn't perform very well either... they are unreliable. if they really wanna bet for 2020, they should have tried with 1 younger player like Kizukuri ?

i can comment only on the 3-5mns of the vids that i see, i don't know anything else. I can see your shot quality is better than TTM or Sandy, that the ball is spinny and often deep, and you may not be playing 100% and perhaps playing your "B" game, because there may be some room. Still i could...

Ladies Finals Ishikawa vs Hirano

Men's final Mizutani vs Yoshimura Kazuhiro

source ? i cannot see it on JTTA site

I agree they should kick Niwa. His loss to Ueda in this championship was a disgrace unfortunately they said that the 2 best ranked players would be part of the team, so Niwa was part of it. Niwa had a miraculous win against WONG Chuting in the Olympics in singles and that kind of saved him...

Aruna would have lost 4-0 as well

It's all over. Mizutani won as expected. He was never in real danger and did not need to produce his best to win against the underdog who put up a decent fight taking one game and deucing in the 4th..
