Quite an amazing article you found there Yosua. TQ for sharing. I definitely enjoy reading it

During the 1960s, Chinese players developed close-to-table offensive techniques: 1) Attack from both sides (backhand and forehand), and 2) backhand block/forehand attack. This type of players ruled the world; Zhuang Zedong was the master of the first method and Ron Guotuan, Xu Yinsheng, and Li Furong (my former coach!!! haha) brilliantly performed the second method.
