Finally, if in the next video, you don't find some shorts to put on when filming these videos, I will refrain from commenting on any of your videos until ttmonster gives you passing grade. I look bad when I coach in jeans but this is disgusting to see... do you have spots on your legs or...

If you want a reliable match topspin, you don't brush the ball, You hit the ball with the racket at an angle. Then the trick is how to improve the dwell and get heavy spin? You do it by hitting the ball on a part of the ball that is not spinning that much and the shaping the stroke with a...

We waited throughout 2016. Don't keep us waiting forever in 2017. My goal this year is to help people hit the ball better... I want relaxed topspins but I want powerful topspins too...

Web instruction is difficult... no, not 150% commitment... please, that leads to tightness and frustration... What I am looking for is whippy technique being used to create fast racket head speed. In fact, if all you do is snap the forearm properly and do nothing else but that, and I seriously...

Chicken wing topspins are usually very fast or very spinny. I am not convinced by your excuse. SchemeSC has given both you and Boogar some good advice. We need real topspins in 2017. We can't be chatting about the same old stuff as last year. This is the year where Archo becomes an TTD...

Stop looping like Boogar, Archo. Do a real topspin! :p

If you don't hit the left side, it becomes more like an over the table backhand loop. What is valuable in the Fan Zhendong video is the emphasis of the shape of the backswing (which Fan Zhendong also uses on his tremendous backhand loop) and the description of the stroke as "unsheathing the...

Eat your heart out... it was once my basic stroke... I have worse videos but this is the one I will use for now...

Yep, Follows me too...

Takkyu, you gotta relax that wrist man, it is way tooooooo tight. You could gain an easy 100 pts if you just relaxed it. You would miss for a couple of days/weeks but then it would all come back with more venom. It's hurting all your strokes. Here are my two favorite advanced backhand flick...

Here is an article. At some point I will return to explain why I posted it - brushing vs hitting the ball to get spin. You might get the gist of it from the article but the details are not easy to get. http://butterflyonline.com/modern-topspin-strokes/

First of all, a lot of the backlash Emrathich is getting is from calling these things Chinese secrets, If you look at any top pro, they are hitting the ball with their core, not just the Chinese. In fact, the Chinese will tell you that they learned such "secrets" from watching Ogimura, the...

That was a good video but there is really much more to it than that. But you have to have the experience to know that, and I think you could arrive at the same result if you watched Brett's video on advanced mechanics and grip tension.

Top players are good models for people who know what they are doing. You would learn much more if you saw what these top players were doing when they were at your stage of playing and knowing its relevance to your game. What they do now is the end of a process and it is more important for you...

It's much harder than you think to tell from a video whether a guy is good or not. If you have truly only been playing a year, be a little more humble until you actually have played enough to understand why those of us who do not know EmratThich are suspicious. I suspect you may actually know...

That is true but since a player left his 2500 level coach to work with me, I can tell you that what serious adults seek when it comes to table tennis improvement is effective and understandable coaching. That is not always about playing level, it is about relating to what the player is...

Musaab, what is your playing level? You have written a lot of stuff about me and my qualifications based in my videos. I am interested in your qualifications since you claim that I am obviously not qualified to judge someone even though I gave specific examples of what he said that was dubious...

I know you don't but a national level coach encourages me to coach and monitored my work both online and when he was in the USA. I think you know whose opinion I will take on this issue. Thanks. He doesn't agree with everything I say but he finds what I do good enough not to find it...

How do you know they are not one and the same when you have never seen the player play? There is one player who is a respected internet coach who I personally know whose highest official tournament level is USATT 1500. He has trained a 2100 player and still does. People love his internet...

A lot of people are speaking past each other here. I watch a lot of EmRatThich's stuff. Some of it is good stuff, most of it is good marketing. Plenty of it is stuff that when I see it, I can place it in context, but I still sometimes wonder about the level of the player and the experience of...
