There is a reason why this is a bad grip - almost none of the fingers are on the rubber and it doesnt allow for minute finger control of the blade angle as well as spin generation. Hence it is quite a bit inferior to both penhold and shakehand.

Unfortunately, this is a thing in the sport - pips/anti/etc... if they banned it tons of $$$ will flow out of the sport because in our society most $$$ is held by the old ppl, and catering to their needs/wants is pretty important for the sport. But there are definitely weaknesses of...

A good intermediate step is the no spin lift, where you simply lift the ball with mostly legs so that it clears the net. Once they get the security of clearing the net with ease, spin can be added easily with the fingers. Lifting the ball is way easier than looping it, and is also quite a useful...

To be fair, all of the top women players play with a lot of spin these days. In fact I think there some of Miwa Harimoto's topspin loops and it looks like it is even spinnier than certain players on the men's side....

Really bad idea, D05 is already fast and bouncy, why would you wanna make it even faster?!

Ma Long vs FZD WTTC 2017 final is probably one of the craziest, most exciting matches I watched...

D05 or worse, T05 is easy mode until you try to push amd receive serves with it - then it becomes hard mode lol

Some specific tips I would like to know: 1) How to completely kill off the spin against a short, super heavy underspin serve and produce a no spin ball with inverted rubbers. Whatever I do for the push there is quite a lot of underspin due to the incoming spin. 2) How to completely kill off...

Starting to really like med high toss serves now which just go above the head. Im doing med high toss FH pendulum, FH tomahawk and hook, FH heavy underspin/no spin serve now. Some pros: 1) immense spin with less effort or movement when you need it - this can be quite deceptive. Perfect for...

Pretty simple for me... TT is just really fun and addictive to play because of the sheer depth in the game. You always have something to improve. It is like a RPG when you slowly level up. There are no TT goals for me (maybe to win against ex Chinese provincial players but that is quite a tall...

It doesnt need to be super high level (in terms of match commentary). In fact, one real missing point is commentary on lower level players matches. Kinda like bronze league heroes in Starcraft 2 lol...

You can copy for eg what Quanshibao is doing in terms of commercial stuff and videos, they are putting a huge amount of TT content, just that it is in Chinese. There is everything from technique tutorials to trickshots to strategy to fun challenge matches to match commentaries etc... WRM is also...

Lots of 5 set losses are due to opponents starting to adapt and decipher your weapons while you ran out of weapons to introduce and dont have answers to their responses to your weapons. For eg if your serves are really good you can often win the first few sets easily, then when they adapt and...

Cool trick to control and change serve positioning with FH serves - using the direction of the left foot during the 'stomp' (weight transfer from right to left). If left foot is pointing towards right then it will be a diagonal serve. If it is pointing more towards the front it will be a...

Harimoto depends on his fast counter game and needs to be able to control his opponent's loops. Xu Xin had the highest spin on the CNT, and plus he is a lefty penholder with the opposite sidespin that Harimoto is used to, it is very difficult for Harimoto to control the block or counter from...

Apparently it is this: https://www.taobao.com/list/item/wap/650820558547.htm Miracle product indeed...

Short game control (serve/receive) is a huge part of the game though. Also I feel like the D09c sponge actually hardens quickly which makes it even more unplayable like a spinless brick just after like 3-4 months which is annoying af coz it makes it 3 times more expensive than 05 if I had to...

Miwa Harimoto also uses this right foot in front stance. I once tried this stance and it made it so easy to chiquita from short FH. For me it definitely has advantages esp in short game and even long BH. But yeah I couldnt solve the fast serve to elbow issue so I gave up and used the more...

How do you deal with fast serves of various spins to the elbow with a right foot in front stance? This is the main reason why i still have my right foot back. But imo Right foot forward definitely has some advantages in short receive (especially chiquita!) and deep BH.

No it is not spinmax, it is a chinese product. Need to ask what it is...
