I think @Takkyu_wa_inochi gave a good point here. You really somehow looked for confirmation not advice here. Your form is not bad, and many people had given correct suggestions to you. But table tennis techniques are somehow weird that you need someone to show you in real life to improve. And...

The key is that the elbow is relaxed before contacting the ball. And usually it is an adjustment before contact. Ideally, the elbow should not be lifted before contact at all.

coaching the coach

To me, JM zlc is good for smashing as well. A blade is good for flat hitting as long as it is not too flexible like Long 5.

Has Guo Yan been coaching at HITTA? Wang Hui seems to be able to get some good players from CNT to coach for him.

Was Guo Yan SYS's teammate in the provincial team?

This is what I call fake feeling of using body power. You probably felt that you used a lot of body power for your drive/loop, but from the video, it showed your body move do not really provide power or speed for hand/arm swing. Your arm power mostly was from your shoulder. To get more body/leg...

You won't create much power if your hand moves before your leg/body gives power. And you won't give good power to the ball when your elbow is far away from your body when you contact the ball.

Did anyone in the US buy from Dandoy recently? How did the custom clearance work? Did you need to pay for the tariff before delivery?

Ito +Sora XD should have been tried.

DH para 40+ is good. DHS balls are good. Nittaku premium is good for play, but bad for wallet and usually with bad durability. I remember that I broke 2 or 3 Nittaku balls in one night. The good thing for the Joola training balls is that they are really durable.

Also it is similar to the transition from 38+ to 40+ balls, brush looping is basically useless. Brush looping is particularly useless for these hard Joola balls. Drive loop with an angle is the way to go. It will force me to use drive loop more even for backspin balls.

I also have some Huison training balls from Aliexpress. They are pretty good, almost like DHS or DF 3 star tournament balls. I can feel the difference between the Huison and Joola balls just holding them in the palm.

I can feel the Joola 3 star advanced training balls are harder than any of the balls I have used. Nittaku 3 stars balls are hard, but not near to these Joola balls.

Everyone in the club is using this ball. And I don't want to be special. I will just try it more to figure out how to play with it better. It appears that for these balls, you need to have better timing and faster accelerating. Adapting to these balls will actually help me time better and...

Recently I play with a hard 3 star Joola training ball. The ball feels very hard. It plays so differently from a 3 star Nittaku or DHS ball. It is hard to spin and the trajectory is quite different (flat and dropping quickly?). I tried adjusting my technique for it. But it is still very hard...

How about the durability of O8 China?

Psychological/mental training is well underestimated for profession table tennis. No sure whether any team has this kind of training beside CNT?

D05 might be slightly slower than D80, but it is definitely still among the fastest rubber for strong strikes. I think most people don't agree with you point just because you need to compare it with D80 to say it is slow.

Sound transports slower than light. But is it really that slow?
