Firstly, I would like to give a huge thanks to The Werner Schlager Academy, William Henzell, Darius Knight and Butterfly in making this trip possible!

Hey guys, I am at the Werner Schlager Academy where the Chinese players are preparing for the upcoming World Table Tennis Championships. I will be here for 3 days as a media representative. I will be covering footage from this fantastic training facility here in Austria! The setup is fantastic!

The Chinese players have arrived and had their first days practice today. I will post all the content in this discussion.

Be sure to check out the The Werner Schlager Academy Website!

That's amazing! Maybe you can play with one of them again! Maybe Ma Lin remembers you

Cool! :D Yea I was thinking the same as Bollforte94; you should definitely try to get some of the chinese players to hit a few points with you :D

I will try my best guys! :) I just took some snaps today I didn't want to jump in to soon. Liu Guoliang would kill me distracting his players haha!

I bet! Those players are so fit! I watched Ma Long earlier on multi ball and he didnt stop for 5 or so minutes at an incredible pace! Perhaps you will go back here in the future William? :)

Once again thanks so much for helping me make this trip a reality.

Amazing Dan,

Keep u the good work, I particularily like the zhang Jike multi ball. As i am a top player I must ask my trainer to feed me multi balls jsut like the zhang jike video.:rolleyes:

I will do buddy, haha you sure should! Learn from the best!

This is awesome!
I wonder what more could still Guoliang explain about backhand topspin to Ma Long..
Really! Doesnt Ma Long already know everything about it? Hmm...

Anyways, Dan, I would love to see some Liu Shiwen training, if possible ;)

Yeah that's why I think Liu is so amazing! He still teaches these guys. His power within this team is extraordinary. Sure I will get some footage of her tomorrow buddy :)
