I too have envisioned myself playing mainly mid distance looping. So this come closer and closer into the table is somehow strange to me at first until Tony explained it to me as above.

Oh! Thanks for your clarification / input.

Congrats to Alexis. This is akin to like Lin Shidong beating FZD at the Chinese National TT Finals yeah? A case of an up and coming youngling beating a veteran.

NB: The video above is not mine as I did not take any video, I just took a random sample from Youtube. On Sat my coach introduced to me this type of drills. Fast Multi-ball training. It was a shock to my body. It felt so hurried and I am like under constant pressure. At first it was 2 FH + 2 BH...

Dear coaches and trainers, This post is more targeted at you guys / gals. If you are one, please response. I first heard about this new trend a while ago but never paid any attention to it until very recently. The context as follows: 1. My coach is telling me to come closer and closer to the...

So sorry to hear that you have no access to coach. I hope this situation may change in the future. The feeling of buying new equipment to test and still losing to your club mate is not so fun compared to maintaining a single good equipment set up that a professional coach recommends based on his...

Sorry MtCollins, Perhaps my post here is not directly in response to your query, but I just want to say a few words from my personal experience. With the money that one wishes to spend on equipment, it is better to be spend on engaging a professional coach. I am speaking from personal...

It can be loopy if my positioning and contact point is correct. However, the point I want to emphasize is that due to its high trampoline effect, if the ball is coming back high with not too much back spin, one can power through the spin with a powerful drive. And I love this particular property...

Bird, Helping people by becoming a doctor? That is so unAsian way of thinking...

Curiosity. Aside from Asians that you mentioned, are these traits present in other ethnics in the US who are first gen immigrants? Eastern Europeans? Latin Americans? Carribeans? Africans? Or are these traits specific to Asians only? I am not sure, coz over here, we are all Asians so I don't...

Go get em tiger. Come back to TT after this for more excitement in life. 😁

After gluing R48 on my bat for three weeks and letting it sit pretty inside my cabinet, I finally took it out to play last weekend. In total, I've had just six hours of play time with it. My first impression as such: 1. Fast. It is fast. Good for drives and smashes. 2. It has immense trampoline...

Hello Dominik, What a coincidence as I just shared this wonderful & marvelous FH loop kill from Qiu Dang with my club-mates yesterday. Have a look. However, what I want to highlight is, you can never ever get such beautiful loop if you only rely on arm mechanics. Focus on Qiu's waist snap as he...

That is one relax movement. Silky smooth.

Smashing with R48 on FH. NB: Transferred this post from another thread for appropriateness.

After seeing this table, I realized that I am playing tensor ESN 48 degree which is equivalent to 37 degrees DHS scale on my FH. I am such a wuss pussy.

That hit was a flat punch BH. It only is useful against no spin ball. Other players will call this active block technique. Ideally I would love to attack all sidespin serves to my BH, but I am not consistent enough to do it all the time. If I do that, my club-mates will very quickly give me the...

As promised, these are four YT video of my matches today, with commentaries. Video 1.Commentary: This was the first game I played and as you can see I was not mentally ready. I was not playing my usual game. I believe I have not properly warm up yet, or to be specific, not mentally warm up...

Block like Da Boss - Pro Version 2.0 Block like Da Boss - Amateur Version 3. NB: @NDH, I am sorry for smiling and having a light giggle, I failed the Waldner test, again.

I thought I am cure of EJ disease but there is just something that remain and there will be occasion where relapse may occur. Sigh... I am such a weak minded feeble victim.
