In Korean, drive means "loop" or "topspin".

What we English speaking people outside Korea call a drive (faster shot with little topspin), the Koreans call the BH version of that a Showt. (They call the FH version a Hwa)

I will take a look at the vid and see what in general he is trying to say.

Sometimes the Korean pros talk for nothing, sometimes there is a nugget a minute.

I tell you the first 5 minutes, that looks like where most of the meat is at.

- Very important to have elbow in front. It makes the swing stable

- You should have a sensation or feeling of the swing rotating on elbow joint (with elbow stationary)

- Use a 6:4 ration of wrist to forearm power.

- Goal is to get the tip of the bat to go fast.

- Use the forearm and the wrist together to generate speed and power

- Coach emphasizes the 40% of the power to come from forearm.

- Use legs and hips to generate the initial energy. It also makes you stable.

- Someone asked how high or low to impact ball. LSS likes to impact it kinda low. He doesn't like to BH hit a ball at chin height

- LSS would take ball letter high or belly button high, either on rise, or if at distance, as ball is descending

- Hard to make the shot if ball is not in good spot (sweet spot of impact zone)

- LSS says again he feels more stable if he does a crouch and waist use with the BH loop

- LSS says it is better to use legs and waist together with the BH loop, not just arm.

- Coach emphasizes the importance of being stable. (Koreans say do not "Shake")

Thx... haha, by calling me DR, you changed my title from "The" (Der) to Doctor or PhD... funny.

I am only a doctor of destruction, but aren't all of us that?
Dr. Real? Or real Dr? Either way we need both of those in the current sad table tennis less times...

Der Echte means "The Original" or "The Genuine" I took on the "Original Joker" moniker years back and the screen name I use is a short form of that in German. It is all Nonsense really, but it is the kind of trouble I cause. If you know me in real life, you would soon know there is only one of me on the planet.

But then again, there are lots of us like that who are unique, so that by itself isn't anything really special.
