Sorry to bring this thread back from the dead, but I had never seen this "fake loop" OP was talking about until stumbling on a WRM video
2:53 in the video
"The ball follows the blade, and it goes very slowly, but with big spin, and it looks that really flies too slow to be visible.
Many Koreans can do this kiond of slow but spinny looping, because they have been playing with Hinoki for many decades, and we call it "fake loop", because sometimes the ball comes after the blade, due to it's slow speed. If your arm moves very fast, and the ball is hit very slightly, then the ball flies after the blade has finished the whole swing,"
