TESTING DARKO JORGIC'S TABLE TENNIS BAT!

[Dan]

Hey guys! In this video we’re joined with the recent Europe Top 16 winner Darko Jorgic! We actually shot this footage 1 week before his Europe Top 16 win... so yes we are taking all the credit for his victory! 😁

So Tibhar have recently released the Dynamic JC (Darko Jorgic) blade. We paired this with Darko’s go to rubbers, the Hybrid K3 on the FH, and Evolution MXP on the BH. Enjoy!

@Dan - You've got to be the most improved player on tour.

Look at those silky shots!

Darko's backhand is an absolute cheat code though - So good 😍

Evolution MXP

Not Infinity MX-P as usual? ;-)

Hey @Dan you also made a nice performance there 👌
Nice tip about wrist-legs synchronization 😉
I've been doing some testing with that one too.

Is Jorgic using a common 47.5º mxp on his backhand?

No. He is playing with Infinity MX-P, hence my question above.

that is some insane amount of boosting on that rubber right there. I have never seen pimples so clearly behind the topsheet of a boosted rubber before.

I've been thinking and experimenting with this too - I think it's actually quite an interesting concept that works very well!

Was wondering where did you get to on that aspect?

I've been experimenting with this a bit, and for me the timing of the "step" is very important. For eg the FH loop stroke ends with weight transferred to the left foot, and this feels like stepping on the left foot. It seems that I get a lot more power when I timed this "step" with the rest of the force generating mechanisms, all aimed at the exact point of ball contact - earlier or later step timings result in a loss of power.
