  1. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    Yes what you say makes sense.. I think I overthink things too much. At the end of the day it's up to me to figure it out. Maybe I should be happy with my FH rotation and practice this bh to fh transition. Unfortunately the good coach is only through online haha. We have a coach at our club but...
  2. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    Thank you for such a detailed comment Lula :), very kind to take the time to give so much feedback, I appreciate it. I think it will be difficult to change a lot of things and I don't want to do that. I think I get good power for the most part.. I'm not sure I can get much more than what I got...

    Sorry I should have clarified I'm the guy closest to the camera. I will let him know haha :), your advice is appreciated regardless!
  4. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    I recorded my FH against block earlier as there's one concern I've had some comments on which is that I don't rotate my torso forward enough. I think my FH's against block in this video felt good but I still wonder if I should rotate slightly more. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cZknQ_zKWpY As...
  5. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    Which video is it? There are many on of them. I wonder if the main issue is timing. I do not wait enough for the ball and rush the shot, same as a few of my backhands (like Lula said). I think on my flips I can get my wrist all the way back. I have some problems against different spins. When...
  6. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    Yes I'm in Malmö. We have a few Fredriks here but I've not heard of him. Thank you for your comments. In the second video if you watch towards the end I think I'm using more forearm and power. I think it will be difficult for me to use more forearm than that. I shall keep experimenting next...
  7. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    Thank you NL. Yes you are right. I'm still getting used to using body on BH and need to figuring out how much/little of it to use depending on how far I am from the table. Interesting about using the same stroke, that's how I should imagine it and let my subconsciousness take care of the swing...
  8. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    I remembered I posted a few backhands in this thread a bit over 2 years ago. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NxhDTgY1bLw 00-0.33 and 0.50 - 1.00 I've been trying to work on my backhand lately and found it interesting to compare what my backhand is like now compared to then...
  9. Japan National Championships 2019

    Amazing rallies and this camera angle is perfect.
  10. Rubber thickness for FH and BH

    I try to change as infrequently as I can. Before I changed once a year. This year I changed every 6 months, while others around me that practice less than me have changed their rubbers three times since I last changed mine lol.. partly because they EJ. It's going to be interesting to see how...
  11. Rubber thickness for FH and BH

    Looking back I should probably have used slightly thinner rubbers over the last couple of years. Right now I'm using T05 2.1 and rakza 7 for my BH in 2.0. I'm getting new sheets tomorrow and tempted to go for max on rakza 7 but if I'm really honest with myself I wouldn't utilize the max...
  12. LGL: Harimoto a Clear Stream of World Table Tennis

    Thanks for the translation. LGL is as per usual speaking wisely.
  13. New 2019 ranking is published

    I think it depends on what someone means by "genius". Waldners style of play simply isn't possible in the current stage of TT. At least not if you're aiming to be the best in the world. In my eyes Koki Niwa is a similar "genius" if you're comparing to the Waldner style of play. Then I think Niwa...
  14. Der_Echte in Copenhagen

    Hey Der_Echte, I recommend you get the train over to Sweden (which would take 20-30 min) and then there are a couple of clubs you could visit, one is Malmö IF where I and another forum member (Nicky Franck) plays. There is also Lund which isn't far from Malmö, which would probably have more...
  15. Yelling When a Point is Won

    This is a misconception, I think it has more to do with transference of weight, which the foot stomp assists with on the serve. Agreed with your other points, even though I don't like choing myself. The way Harimoto cho's however I think is respectful and everyone says how respectful Harimoto is...
  16. Ma Long's first match since his injury - 2018

    Not sure I agree with you here. They're both very impressive in different ways. I've now watched FZD live a couple of times and he is one of the most impressive players I've ever seen. His power is out of this world. What many people seem to think is that he's a generic player, I can sort of...
  17. Ma Long's first match since his injury - 2018

    He's still number 1 in my eyes and will be for quite a while. The most dominant, accomplished and complete player of this era. Seriously, who cares about the official ranking, lets instead watch the quality table tennis that a player like Ma Long can produce and has produced. It will however be...
  18. Youth Olympic Games Buenos Aires

    Do you know what he's changing with his FH? What was wrong with it before?
  19. Czech Open 2018

    She seems to be a good mental coach.. but she doesn't seem to give any actual practical advice, I'd prefer to hear, or would like to hear that too that if I were Liam.
