Regarding the video (pointers on looping against backspin), starting @5:24, she talks about the common issue of pulling the upper arm backward with the elbow angle remaining static throughout (Harimoto1 still has that issue to this date). She continues on about how one should open it up, "wrap"...

Sigh, I've tried my best on Confucius' teachings. [url unfurl=false]https://ctext.org/analects/yan-yuan/zh?en=on[/url]

Was going to supplement NextLevel's post in the European Games thread, but keeping it here for future reference. Images of the path of the racket tip for the FH and BH mid-far distance loop from the studies from mainland China. FH [url unfurl=false]https://i.imgur.com/KkgPY1k.png[/url] FH and...

Below is a quote on pronation/supination from another Polish study (2018) by the same authors on the angles in select joints during FH topspin among 10 of the top 16 female players in Poland. [url unfurl=false]https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29523053/[/url] Another study (2019) by Japan Sport...

Just bumped into this video and the channel. I think this is the first time I see a video being filmed from the back (first person angle) more or less for the entire duration. It's like a time trial ghost. Much better than shooting from the front where the table would block the lower body...

Unless we get robots that can do Parkour to pick up table tennis, the typical "shoot a ball at a stationary racket and measure the COR" is the best you can get, but that only tells you how much energy gets returned to the ball (like a coach blocking to you), which is far from how a racket is...

Some kind of GMD? LOL Seriously, it sounds like a butchered translation of the Chinese term 中台弧圈打法 (mid-distance from table looping playing style), where 中台 corresponds to middle stage (can also mean medium table), 弧圈 to arc loop, and 打法 to attack method.

Can't wait for another episode on Hirano. TV Tokyo: Much awaited talking point for Table Tennis Japan! Zennoh: Why did we stick with Ishikawa? Nittaku: Why did Ito and Hayata choose us but not Hirano? Sanrio: Yatta! [url...

Harimoto stole the spotlight from Hirano last week. Hirano steals the spotlight from Harimoto this week. https://weibo.com/6046759306/N82KS0Uvp https://weibo.com/6046759306/N81KEixU6 https://weibo.com/6046759306/N80ZZvVEL WTT CT Zagreb 2023 QF 3-1 LWS SF 3-1 KM F 4-3 SYS ATTC 2017 in Wuxi...

NAKAZAWA Rui/Wang Rui, who used to coach her at JOC Elite Academy after Hirano approached him in late 2015, has a lot to do with that. The decision to transfer from Nissay RedElf to Kinoshita Abyell (with which Nakazawa is currently affiliated) last year made all the difference once again...

Fun facts: First time Hirano played SYS after 4 years and 9 months since Buenos Aires 2018. First encounter in the women's singles event, and in the final. First time Hirano beats SYS. The last two matches at Buenos Aires 2018 were close. First and only non-CNT player to defeat SYS in 3 years...

Can you time each contact to ±100ms? Prove it. 眼是一把尺，量人先量己 The eye is a rule, measure yourself before measuring others.

After sifting through my little database, I dug out one study from 2018 that I never gave a good read (a shoutout to Jslick89) by Japan Sport Council that measured the "slip distance", how much the ball moves on the rubber during contact (though technically speaking, slip means the ball loses...

Have been occupied with the other threads and only noticing the smearing just now. Just when I'm about to leave it behind, ban hammer has to get me started again. Here goes another and only round of self-reflection in self-defense. Both acting like babies? I've extended the olive branch...

In the abstract of an earlier draft of the study where 6 Japanese women elite players, 5 righties and 1 lefty (one of them likely Ito from the silhouette) get tested for spin rate, measurements of the contact duration and contact distance were actually attempted. Contact duration and contact...

The above is the perfect example of "interpretation gone wrong". Right or wrong. Is binary reasoning the only logic your brain is capable of processing? Has it ever crossed your great mind that circle merely serves as a visual clue to aid the viewers in assessing how much the ball has...

誤人子弟 Faith? Closing the paddle? WTF are you smoking? I seriously suspect hardheaded engineer has DID here.

The meteoric rise of the Lebrun brothers really puts the other European players (Moregard included) in a bad light. If only Gauzy were a few years younger. Imagine the Lebrun brothers paired with Gauzy from 2019.
