short

Any top ranked player with short pimp rubber ? I am thinking about to take a good pimp rubber.

Hey. A ball I somewhat struggle with is the occasional short, high ball that barely hits the edge. I don't get these too often when playing people my level, but against worse players, against whom I use less speed and spin, they're more common. You see similar stuff even in high level play, but...

Hi guys, I thought it would be a good idea to start a discussion about our immediate and long term goals in the sport of Table Tennis. As the community is full of exciting, passionate Table Tennis lovers, I hope that a lot of interesting stories could come out. If there are no immediate goals...

Der_Echte once said to me, learning the timing and touch and bat angles for a short underspin serve is a must, I have decided to work on it and to perfect it as much as I can (without a proper coach). Below is a video of my practice of the serve on Day 2. I am attempting to practice a bucket...

these people are too stubborn. my older sister (Joanna Song) plays with anti spin and holds the paddle wrong (half seemiller, half shakehand), and is basically a blocker/smasher. She's been around the same level (1600~) for years. I keep telling her to change to a normal setup, or at least long...

I have been an attacking "smooth rubber" player for some time now and have recently moved to short pimples on the backhand. I have a few questions: 1) What are specific tactics (or set-plays) which players with short pips try to implement? 2) What short pip rubbers do the top players use? Any...

I recently posted about changing my game style to attack/defence with inverted rubber. I went to my local club with this in mind but accidently came across Stiga Radical and tried it out on my B/H. I chopped mainly with it but when the ball was up It was easy enough to hit as well. I have read a...

I am looking for videos of players who are playing with short pips forehand / backside backhand here a child in France :

Hey people, What's the best moment that we know we should change from inverted rubber, to short pips or long pips? For example, a forehand looper that uses backhand only to hit, lob or block should change to short pips? Or a guy that learns to play with a variety of strokes, like spinny...

Recently, i played a match again a short pips penholder. Often, i will use a short backspin serve as i consider it the "safe" serve as no one can really attack it. However, since he had short pips, he could easily hit it over. What serves do i do so that he can't do that? I have tried long...

Hi, i am going to play for my club soon and i need some advice on how to play against short pimple and long pimple thanks.

hey everyone, i am using infinity vps v blade with stiga calbira Tour M on my forehand.... And Calibra Tour S on Backhand... If i am blocking with Tour S on my backhand, it gets difficult for my opponent to hit consistent topspin, as it feeds kind of awkward block to the opponent..!! so i m...

Hi, I was advised by my coach to try a new Blade for my newly bought Tenergy 05 (FH) and Raystorm Short Pips (BH) rubbers. Since these are quite expensive rubbers, he feels that I would put it to waste if I use it on my old Butterfly VSG 1000 blade. My current setup is VSG 1000 + Rakza 7 (FH)...

I think I've ruined two sheet of tenergy 80! Help! So Yesterday I rushed cutting the rubber as I wanted to test it out at training later on.Anyway once I'd finished cutting the rubber, I realised what a disaster I had made of it.I have made countless number of bats up over the years and never...

Just found these rallys from a long time ago, I thought I might as well upload them :-). I am the one in the grey/green shirt.

Hey friends, need some tech points on how to initiate attack on short ball as a Third ball attack mainly from backhand.I am having problems in attacking short and sharp cuts close to net and then the time i retort, ball often goes long rendering another guy to take the advantage of...

Hi! im quite interested in short pips right now, the pips im focusing on is the Stiga Clippa because i heard it can produce spin for a Short pip Rubber, has speed and i heard Liu Guoliang uses it too! Do you guys out there have any suggestions? xD Thanks in Advance :)

Hey guys! I've been playing with Timo Boll ALC for 6 months now, and I still feel a bit uncomfortable with the blade.Not that I find its performance to be lacking (actually, it's the best blade I've ever used), it's the short handle which causes me problems.. When I swing the blade, I feel...
