I am a weak old man and I do not have the power & coordination (or education) of Shaquille O'Neal.
If I wanted to still counter-loop on my backhand using a frictionless OX rubber, how do I do this ?
Or I will lower my expectations & settle for doing this using at least any short pips with unboosted sponge ?
I want to switch to short pips with thick sponge on my forehand because my fake no spin forehand chops combined with my super heavy back spins with maximum looper torture index long pips on my backhand are an excellent contrast. But my best stroke using spinny inverted is my forehand hook loop.
So how do I counterloop & hook loop (& fade loop) using short pips both from my forehand & backhand or I will lower my expectations & settle for just forehand (I know I know, short pips is a right over the table rubber in forehand attack mode..... but I want to use it like an inverted from mid & deep distance..........am I excessively greedy ?) .
I have seen players like Johnny Huang & Gao Jun loop with short pips, so it is not really that far fetched.
I think I can do it but when I get to the table , I start trying to loop instinctively like using inverted & ball goes into the bottom of the net. I know racket angle will be more open and I see top pros switch from boosted inverted to hardbat and back to inverted within minutes and this annoys me.
