  1. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    You subconscious never really gets it if you are looking for some form of perfection. In this case, what I would be more concerned with is whether you have stopped using proper whip mechanics and timing to swing at the ball just because you are focused on these drills.
  2. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    Sure, but remember to always find time to post video or you might develop another bad habit that will take forever to undo once it sets in. The higher your level and the more advanced what you have is, the harder it is to undo because you sometimes wonder whether it is worth it. Most of us are...

    Which part didn't make sense? The degree of backswing on your backhand ( and I suspect on your Chiquita since they tend to be similar) is too limited to confidently overpower spin in matches. That was why I posted the FZD video. Chiquita is not a trivial stroke commitment. I used to have a...
  4. Weird playing style

    A lot of people writing interesting stuff - they should post videos of their play... This guy in black first and foremost has extremely strong sidespin serves. That he can get a 2300 player to miss his long serves repeatedly says a lot - most of them are topspin to invite to fast loop into his...

    Carl, Sounds like someone had good taste for music. Playing the music of my late great country man. The pull is less about holding the ball and more about the contact point of the stroke on the ball.

    What is wrong with his serve?
  7. Swedish Open 2016

    The thing is that his strengths are things that go away once your opponents get familiar with you at that level. His serve and serve return game is still amazingly good but it won't get him past his JNT mates and it won't get him past the top Chinese given all the resources they put into...
  8. Donic Baracuda vs Butterfly Tenergy 05

    The comparison doesn't do much IMO unless you know what someone is trying to do. Shinhyun does a decent job though I might quibble with one or two things.
  9. Swedish Open 2016

    Tough final. It seemed to me that Karlsson's over the table backhand short push and block will need some more work if he wants to play that way and break the highest level.
  10. Swedish Open 2016

    Bobrow doesn't seem to realize that Dima is back with T05.
  11. Swedish Open 2016

    No faith in Karlsson...
  12. Swedish Open 2016

    Kenta has hit another level. Seems he took missing the Olympics personally and got some extra training in.
  13. Donic Baracuda vs Butterfly Tenergy 05

    Why are you asking?
  14. Swedish Open 2016

    It's the best one that I have ever seen for sure. Must be amazing to see it live.
  15. Swedish Open 2016

    One shot can change everything in a match. That behind the back just shook Karlsson completely. Match has changed since.
  16. Swedish Open 2016

    The only one I picked on sentiment was Ouiache. The rest I am picking the player that I think is better, and I think Groth had hit a wall, but that behind the back was ridiculous.

  18. Can China's table tennis team be beaten?

    IMO, this is a great post, probably because the same thing has been on my mind. I find it very hard to believe that the benefit of the shakehand's racket and grip is anything more than that it is what the experts know how to use and teach. There should be grips and designs that take advantage...
  19. Can China's table tennis team be beaten?

    His point is a good one - probably just not stated in a tone that fit the mode of the discussion.
  20. Unbelievable point by Martin Hruska!

    28 shot rally - amazing.
