  1. FH rubbers suggestions

    Maybe you can try allwood blade? somthing even softer would help you to get spin i believe. How are you working with forearm and wrist when looping?
  2. Why Manika Batra took liking for shabby pimples.

    Am i missing something? Do not know if long pimple rubber can become more frictionless from more playing but i would be surprised if the players did not try to make it more frictionless. I have never heard anyone that thought it was better to use a long pimple rubber if they have used the long...
  3. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    Hey! My friend with double pimples have just started a tiktok account. Fun to watch how a good player trains, last year he played the highest leaugue. Also very interesting for players using short pimples on either side. https://www.tiktok.com/@antonander97 He wants me to subscribe but i feel...
  4. FH vs Backspin tips

    Try doing everything more explosive and stop when you are going to hit the ball. Can not start the stroke when the ball already sits on the racket, especially against backspin. You get the spin from the forearm so i think you can try to use it more aswell. I believe spin is as important as...
  5. Talking big.

    Hard to be angry as a physicist if other people with other professions do not understand the physics. I also think it is important to be careful with assumptions about people over the internet, very hard to know really anthing about them. With that said, i think a lot of people would be...
  6. How to play against "wall" player?

    Same tempo and placement is eaaaaasy!!! vary tempo and placement and you will win.
  7. The best height for a male table tennis player

    I have heard that Waldner did not want to grow beyond 1,80.
  8. Backspin flick against backspin ball?

    Much easier to go on the side of the ball against backspin. If you want to flip against backspin like Lin Yun Ju with a closed racket angle you need to be able too accelerate very fast. I also think you can get more power if you come close to the ball, squat low and try to put elbow in front...
  9. Tibhar Hybrid K3 vs Rakza Z

    I have used Rakza Z and the throw was very high. Felt very odd in my opinion, at least on the backhand side.

    BRS! I only watched the first clip. I think it is good that you try to take the ball early with the short pimples. Try to think that before the highest point it is okey to just block, but if you wait it up to the highest point you need to play harder. The spins comes mostly from the forearm and...

    Gozo! You seem to get good quality but i still think you hit it to late. It will be very difficult to change from forehand to backhand if the game becomes faster. Some coaches talks about creating an traingle with the base between the feet and the top edge is where your fingers connect if you...

    Gozo! i keep saying the same thing every time. Biggest problem is still that you hit the ball behind your back when playing forehand. Hard to see from this angle but maybe you are playing to close to the table so it becomes harder to hit in front of you. You will have serious problem getting...

    You go over the ball nice! I think that if you want more power you can get the elbow more in front too the side, but with the downside that the pocket will become much bigger.
  14. Advice please: 7-ply all-wood blade for my son

    Look for thickness. Too thick and it will be harder to loop.
  15. Advice for returning awkward serves

    If you want to play short on short nospinballs you need to brush on the side of the ball. You can go under backspin balls and play short but if it is nospinball it will go high. I think it probably is easier to push wth open racket angle/gentle flip. Good luck.
  16. I’m horrible, help

    Is it possible to move the bench behind the table too somwhere else? you guys should try to brush more, especially against backspin. No problem is if the opening loop is high, as long it goes on too the table. Edit: forgot too say that everyone feel that the level of play go up and down. Need...
  17. Playing a tournament match against a Defensive Player

    Playing choppers is a good workout. Did not watch the whole match, but very good that you started to vary the tempo more in the fourth set. Just playing hard is awesome for choppers, then they do not need to move. I also find it very fun and interesting that you use penhold. Not common for an...
  18. Questions about equipment for disabled people

    I can imagine it is almost easier to play attacking game with long or medium pimples on forehand. I think the angle can be diffiult if you want to pushblock. There is one para player in Sweden that attack with Keiler i think. Keiler is very popular in para national team in Sweden. Try the...

    I think you can try to get up on the toes a bit while you are doing the stroke, so you use the legs a bit without standing up. I think Harimoto and Jorgic do this well. Keep up the hard work Richie.

    I think you should try some easy exercises like 1 bh and 1 fh or maybe two point forehand from forehand and the middle. If you get a feeling of when you stand correct and can do the stroke well i believe you will become much more consistent since you know how to move the feet, when you can do...
