Hello I am looking for some advice/resources on the chiquita technique and ball timing/contact on different spin serve receives. I had a look at this video. The ball feeder feeds light backspin. The guy doing the flicks makes a point of waiting until the ball is at the top of the bounce or a...

Hello I'm trying to erase a habit of rushing my backhand whenever a topspin comes to it from the opponent. Does anyone have a drill idea to work on this? When I wait for the ball to get into my BH zone, everything is fine but for some reason I go at it far too early. Almost a panic shot:) Thnx!

I think I've come up with the ultimate question for a coach. How to train 3rd ball kills that have your own spin on them. How many have been through this stage of TT? You have a decent serve that has enough spin and deception to gain high returns that you can kill..... BUT When that high...

Hello, has anyone seen any decent video on optimal forehand and mechanics against deep push? I've seen the backhand videos out there but Google isn't returning much.

Does anyone have an opinion on why many players drop their bat against TS? I've watched a lot of training videos where the action is like this.... https://www.facebook.com/butterflyttofficial/videos/280477182619957/ Would it not be more efficient and quicker to have the back swing come back...

Hello Does anyone know if the head of this robot can be removed from the net and placed on the corners for down the line shots, pendulum serve shots and shots from the corners? It seems that it's hard to find a robot that 1. Has multiple motors 2. Can serve and volley 3. Can change spin per shot...

Hello fellow trainees or knowledgeable coaches. What's your take on drills that are multiball driven or off block driven? I've seen some videos online that use multiball (say for a Falkenberg) and since the ball is more controllable by the coach, it seems that you can really focus on the shot...

I've been reading that BH dominant players use the reverse pendulum and that FH dominant players use the pendulum however it's not making sense. It's obvious when you watch Zike, FZD and ML that it's true. But...when you pendulum serve with back sidespin, it's common for your opponent to easily...

Hi TTD players. Raise your hand if you are tired of being defeated by equipment that you haven't trained against enough;). I'll raise mine first. What I'd like to ask is if there is a definitive guide out there for strategy against pips players? From serve to rally. I understand that the...

I was watching a few of the 2017 Swiss Open matches. Have a look at this incredible point by Mizutani and Freitas. http://www.tubechop.com/watch/8892193 I have to admit, seeing the length, width and speed that they play at got me charged up enough to want to post this thread. Well done.

There's a lot of hurdles in this game obviously but I'm wondering if people have hit this one and have been able to get over it. You are starting to get really close to the next level of players (who used to cream you) however every time your are up 10-whatever they manage to deuce you and take...

Very cool to see top players in a club environment. Great effort by FB's opponent. Looked him up and he has an impressive playing history. Point at 32:00 amazing

Looks like those Polish are using crazy wood bats on table 1 over there on ITTF TV at the moment. http://www.tabletennisdaily.co.uk/livestreaming/

Hey guys Anyone out there using Butterfly rubbers notice ball dent marks in the first few hits with them? I've seen this in other rubbers that I've used but don't remember my last T05 having this effect. Normal? p.s. Used the Yasaka Clicky Press to press it, maybe that had a part in it.

When you are up 10-9 then your serve hits your edge on your side it's like http://loopvideos.com/KjwlL-zDPYM?from=335&to=338 then your opponent beats you 12-10 with a net ball it's like http://loopvideos.com/KjwlL-zDPYM?from=353&to=358

Hi All Anyone out there using a Robopong robot? If so, which are your favorite drills or programs? On my 1050, I usually start off with drill #6 (2BH & 2FH) then move to #10 (BH, FH on bh side, BH, FH wide). I'm just wondering if anyone has some suggestions on where to go from there and which...

I'm seeing this quite a bit lately. Basically it looks to me like the serve throw is directed towards the head and is obscured by the head right before contact. Is this fine? Obviously it's done purposely...it's giving the opponent less time and fewer clues as to what spin is coming in...

Hi guys, I've got slow starter syndrome...meaning it usually takes me 15-30 minutes of play to warm up and hit my stride. Unfortunately that means often losing my first game or two. I am wondering what your most effective warm up is to get you in the zone for game one. Go for a quick run? Do...

I'm going to re-post this article here. As a relatively new player it annoys me that along with all of the new expenses of trying out blades/rubbers and equipment I now have to deal with what looks like a cash money grab under the veil of false excuses...
