regarding those weak points you mentioned, it's best to go with a 7 ply all wood blade to help you improve technique and footwork. Carbon blade although makes your shots seem faster and more threatening, it has smaller margin of error.

lmao Harimoto played his butt off and you still said he choked, Fan was just the better one in that match

Nah I don't expect them to jump up and down cheering but at least applause and smile. Last night, from Ma Lin, WYD to even LGL, everyone display a face as if CNT lost gold to a foreigner. Not even ML back in 2020 got such a cold celebration like that

Congrats Chen Meng, she basically fought not only against SYS but her whole fandom and the CNT delegation. Sun's weakness was always her bh and CM exploited it throughout the game to suppress her domineering fh

This match really shows the depth of study made by JPN and Harimoto into Fan's. Harimoto doesn' afraid of Fan's backhand anymore, he can alternate between blocks and backhand punches to mess up the pace along with varied landing points. He also upped his forehand to attack confidently time to...

no, that's the reverse psychology effect, those that's closest to victory can become conservative and lose their ruthlessness while those that has their backs against the wall will fight crazily

I didn't get the chance to watch it live (screw NHK for that "content unavailable in your region" even with vpn) but judging by all the roasting on 5ch, looks like it's a normal Togami loss (tactic-less play and spineless in keypoints)

well it's true that he's out of form and more hesitant than usual, but you know how Chinese players often answer interviews

well only Zhang Yining has been able to overcome the spare racket handicap so I can't blame Wang CQ. Truls played well this time, more agressive and willing to stay in the rally and it worked well for him

He has to exchange force for feeling and spin due to the new racket, understandable but since Truls is also well-verse in this aspect it will be tougher than usual. Looks like Wang has gained back control in game 3

Truls really means business today, no weird chop blocks and pace breaking pushes

Well if Hayata's BH were as accurate as Wang CQ against Korea yesterday then they might have fought a better match

lol I'm convinced after the XD lost the whole JPN team has a meeting, all of them went crazy in singles so far

kinda hope PRK reach the finals, goddamn it Kim open your country for these talents to compete more

it has been known but often forgotten, DPRK national teams regularly trains in China, thus inherited Chinese fundamental technique and playstyle. It's a match that Hari and Hina were surpassed in both strategy and technique

That's the importance of fundamentals, I felt like Japan has only been excels on tactics, landing points and pacing rather than footwork, force exertion and stroke efficiency. DPRK often practice in China's provincial teams and it's obvious to the eye that their fundamentals are solid, I just...

I'd prefer changing the racket to a slower one and work my way up from it, clipper structure blade is a good starting point. Master all your stroke with it and then when you can exert force properly, increase your rubber hardness.

ah that's just an idiom for "an important rule to remember", not table tennis-related

I also had those problems before and during multiball practice I asked my partner to do these following exercises: - stand on the backhand size and do a fully extended forehand loop as the partner feeds the ball to the forehand corner, without moving your body past the middle line. This helps...

https://4years.asahi.com/article/15112499 I've just came across this interview of Togami's mother, looks like the nickname "anemic prince" that the Chinese dubbed him is spotted on.
