13 May/Saturday, fellow TTD member and CCer '42andbackpains' feeding me multiball. Edited fluff out, although the fluff contained some early missed shots or misfeed, it also contain 42&bp constantly reminding me of the looping stroke ... my 'muscle memory' (such a misnomer, muscles have no memory) keeps going for the oldschool 1980's sidespin loop with the long windup stroke ... looking to have a shorter/compacter stroke and loop topspin instead of sidespin ... need to trust the rubber also ... 42&bp's chastisement echo my lessons with TTD members Der_Echte and NextLevel from 2 Oct 2016.
FTR, the racket is an American Hinoki CPen with 2 inverted sheets: Tenergy FX-80 ... having previously played with chinese rubbers, i didn't quite get the feel for tensor rubbers until i started playing with MX-P. The A.H. blade is much smaller than other CPen's I've used. The Tenergy is very bouncy and I am still learning to adjust to it and let it do the work without the ball flying off the table LOL. Only my 6th time using it.
Also I see what UpSideDownCarl spotted previously, my left arm sometimes goes a little wonky when looping. During warmup pace, i seem to be able to keep left arm relatively stationary, but during multiball/pressure, my structure/form has been compromised.
For a good laugh, warts and all (i'm on the far side dressed in black):
0:00 - 1:00 - FH warmup/loops
1:00 - 3:48 - First basket FH loop (2nd basket of FH loop not included in this edited)
3:49 - 5:48 - 3rd basket - FH loop 1st ball, FH loop drive 2nd ball - i gassed out and quit in the middle of the 3rd basket as it was unproductive
