Is there any way that you can show a little video of you training with coach and maybe one match with someone from the office whose play is fairly representative of the people you are playing at the office? Words don't really show us how you play or who you play against. Video footage would...

The serve is not to make him miss. If it is a dead ball serve, and he uses the pips, YOU KNOW THE BALL CANNOT HAVE MUCH SPIN ON IT. So you use his return to attack on a ball you know does not have much spin of any kind. Serving in general is about setting yourself up. That statement above shows...

Nice video. Fun rallies. Are you in any of the clips? Which player is Arnoud Hofman? Who are the other players in the clips? It might be nice for forum members to know the names of the players. Thanks for posting.

I also would add, as you are trying to analyze the idea and examine if every shot fits into the framework.....in the first shot you assessed, of ML, to me, it looks like he is a little out of position in that shot and using his vast skills while out of position to create a shot despite his feet...

I know Zylon is very hard to sand. It is also hard to cut. I don't know about ALC, but what if you just sanded that top layer towards the ALC without sanding the ALC layer. I don't think what you are describing would happen. But it might be hard to file down.

Okay. For some reason I thought the FZD was an inner carbon. So, it really would not even be like getting anything different. Well, it would be going from an imitation to the real thing. But not really different. [edit] I just realized I was thinking of the Harimoto when I was talking about...

I guess you can get what you want. But what is dead on your racket is probably the rubbers. The blade should be pretty much the same as when you bought it. The Stradivarius is an attempt to copy the TB ALC. They are not quite the same. But they are not soooo different. The FZD ALC is a...

The Stradivarius should be in the same class as the FZD ALC; is there any reason you can't just buy new rubbers and put them on the Stradivarius? Going from the rubbers you are using to the kind you are thinking of using is a change that some might feel is big. Not the faster slower issue...

Knee bend is only vs backspin and is mainly to make it so you don't have to do it all with the arm. If what you are doing is primarily for exercise, that drill you do vs topspin switching FH/BH will be good to make it more cardio and exercise. But you are definitely improving. My posts were...

I am posting these again even though I have edited to see just the angle of the thigh in comparison to the ground on the legs of Dima and ZJK vs BackSpin:Dima: Note, his thigh is almost parallel to the ground. He gets low by bending his knees: ZJK: Note, his thigh is almost parallel to the...

The topspin one looks much better. Also, it looks like you can make it so the ball comes at with less time between each ball (frequency) so, that is good. The information for backspin is not the same as for topspin. What you were doing vs topspin before was something you would only want to...

Your post might be funny as all get out, but you are right, SmashFan would love the play of both players. That is some serious smackdown from both sides. The slap sound of some of those smashes is wild.

In the video safe thread, read some of the posts from Der, and the post from Brs. They give different info and it is all useful. In the end you have to play LP enough to find what works for you. But they have some really good basic iinfo. Also, what NextLevel says above about listening to...

It sounds like you figured out the simplest basics. Follow the link from NextLevel's post from the Video Footage Safe Thread. I am quoting the post below:

Are you a real human or a bot? If a human, is there an actual reason why you quoted an Obvious Spam Bot that was only posting to put a link to that essay writing website? If you are a human, can ask you to please delete the quote from the spambot so the link is gone. And then, why are you...

If it plays well, is there a reason to mess around?

Certain kinds of sponge respond well to boosters and others do not.

To me it sounds like you don't actually need an upgrade. Your blade goes with how you play very well. However, These all wood blades would all be good: 1) Nitakku Acoustic 2) OSP Virtuoso Plus 3) Butterfly Petr Korbel 4) Tibhar Stratus Power Wood The sexiest of those...

Since Der went past fundamentals to tactics, one thing I find that is good for me vs LP is me giving dead balls. I have very fast fast serves and I can serve dead very fast, landing on my white line and opponent's white line. One time I had an LP player who was MUCH higher level than me, tell...

You might consider taking these simple actions: 1) Research on the internet the basic information about how long pips work. 2) Ask this player if he would consider playing matches with you for 30-60 min once or twice a week and you pay him a small fee (maybe 1/5th of what...
