Adam was totally destroyed.
I am surprised Adam couldn't handle at all the topspin of LGY when drilling, because LGY wasn't trying to go too hard as well.
It's actually his playing style. Sure, the lobbing action always triggers a reaction like: nah, this is only toying around. But we shouldn't forget that it can be part of all these strange playing styles that are possible and also successful in table tennis.for me it's not a problem that Adam Bobrow gets destroyed, that should be expected when you play against no 3 (and he is definitely a very very good player). For me it seems that Adam Bobrow lost the ability to play seriously and give his 100% due to "goofing" all the time...

Just watch the second episode of TTD team video![]()
yep and he will score 2 or 3 spectacular points against a good player in a match, to put in a video, and lose largely the match
Yeah, and Matthias Falck would beat Ma Long had he learned a "proper" forehand. C'Mon. (-;Sure, if Adam played a more traditional TT style, and had trained for it instead of training for doing snakes and lobs, he'd be ranked 200 points higher, but then nobody would watch his videos

I have played quite a few guys whose main weapon against me is their lobs. The key thing is that they mess around with your level of practice against lobbing and they play different spins to mess with your timing. I have a decent forehand smash too but I appreciate the difficulty created by being forced to play to a different timing.I've played a lot of good lobbers. But I've never played against someone who could win just by lobbing who could not beat me easily playing the "normal" way.
btw all things being equal, I'm a bit better than players around my level against lobbers because I have a rather good FH smash. I see a lot of better players than me who can't smash at all, they just drive / topspin back those high balls. Its safer, but its much easier to get back for the lobber. The best player of our team is like 1.5 levels above me (at least ? - its very very difficult for me to beat him), he cannot smash at all ! i've seen him struggle indeed against a good lobber.
