Another great video. The portion about keeping your blocks closer to your body to be able to easily transition from defence to offense was very thought provoking. Hope you revisit this in the future with more demonstrations on how to implement in games to retake the offense. Such an important tactic, hope it does not get buried in the video with players not recognizing how game changing this could be. Wonderful to see you giving so much back to the game.

Hi, wow what a great Idea Im glad you mentioned that I will write that down in my book of video Ideas :) i think it really depends on how you play, what way do you like the point to develop for example do you like to play close or far, slow or fast, spiny or dead, then you need to figure out all your shots and tailor them to the way you want the point to develop, the opponent has to play the ball you give them and sometimes they cant play the ball they might want to play. hope that gets you thinking :)

Terimakasih videonya

Great. But I've noticed Ma Long and FZD leaning backwards on those loops. Why do they do that? It would also be interesting to listen to how you create strong forward going loops on backspins.

@PechPongTT

2 жыл бұрын

Hi I guess everything in moderation, your right, they probably go a bit up, but the common mistake is to really overdue it and it throws people out of whack. to get good speed you should try to contact it a bit early or at the top of the bounce for a good angle of attack and then you use a little bit more hit/spin ration than say a spiny loop and you drive the ball forwards and use the opponents backspin to help bring the ball down. this is very commonly used by the Chinese if you watch their multiball practice they do this a lot.

wilkinru yes I know the feeling very well!! work on opening up the angle more feel like the racket face is pointed towards the ceiling and almost “feel like your spinning from below the equator of the ball” the idea is to let the angle of your racket do some lifting for you so you are working smarter not harder.

Love your videos! So detailed explanatios. I'm not sure I really get the 'open your angel' part. Can you elaborate on that a little more? 'Cus open up could mean that the ball could get too high = an easy smash for the opponent?

@PechPongTT

2 жыл бұрын

Hi yeah open your angle means maybe 5-7 degrees more open, this will help you get the ball over the net easier as well as increase the surface area exposed to the ball, it will also let you swing a little more linear instead of up and down which can be difficult when you are looping a topspin ball as it’s moving fast and jumping upwards very much from the topspin. Hope that explains

Hi coach, I really liked the way you are explaining with the video illustration. I have been playing for around 5 years but still I have issue with switching backhand to forehand and moving near to far from the table. I end up with very ackward forehand movement especially during the rally. Could you kindly make a video on what's the crucial point that contributes to it and what the solution is?🙏

@PechPongTT

Hi thank you Im glad you have been enjoying the videos, yes thats a very good topic, I think you can look at high level players do those drills and you can record yourself and see what the differences are. it takes lots of coordination to link up moving in and out as well as switching from foreahnd to backhand while moving, so lots of practice with multiball slow at first and then build it up. I will keep that in my mind next time i make a video.

When you want play second or third topspin after backspin opening do you have to go one or two stets behind the table?

Great video. About racket angle how many degrees are you talking about?

@PechPongTT

2 жыл бұрын

I believe you are referring to the backhand. For me as I played many backhands very closed I would say about 10 degrees more open would make a big difference, it’s important to also take it open on the way back as it will make it easier to keep it open through the shot. Lots of players close down the racket as they take it back and it makes it harder to open it on the way forward. Hope that helps! (It took me a month or more to get the feeling right so don’t be discouraged if it feels impossible)

Great video! A question on the last topic, wouldn't opening angles depend on your rubber as well though? I'd assume rubbers like Dignics 09c and Tenergy 05 would perform better with a closed angle, and rubbers like 64 for open angle. I recently switched over from long pimples because my forehand is lethal and I'm just better at attacking! Also, what are your thoughts on having a small backswing like you're doing, vs having a big backswing like old school players (Kreanga)?

@PechPongTT

3 жыл бұрын

Hi yes good thoughts there, those rubbers do have higher throw angles and good spin. Also the faster you flick the less open you have to be. I guess in the video I wanted to address problems I had that I wish I would have known sooner, I was playing for a long time with a much too closed racket for any rubber and my % of makes was suffering because of that

Excellent! Why do you think Zhendong uses such a closed angle on BH if it is more difficult?

@PechPongTT

7 ай бұрын

His timing is near perfect, his ability to adjust is also near perfect. When he strikes the ball he is maximizing spin and speed and needs to keep it closed or else it goes off the table. Also when you strike the ball so well ball is staying low during rally as well as having good pace so the ball is often times at the top or on the rise even when he is far. He can and often does open his racket when the ball is lower or strange but most of the time you see the closed racket getting max spin and speed out of each ball. As a player improves I think it can be helpful to close the racket but I think it’s a progression.

Seth, what are the approximate BAT ANGLES and ARM MOVEMENT ANGLES that you use for your OPENING LOOP against HEAVY BACKSPIN? And how do these same angles compare to the BAT ANGLES and ARM MOVEMENT ANGLES you use for your COUNTER-LOOPS against HEAVY TOPSPIN? So you will understand my question better, in my opinion, the BAT ANGLE is the angle of the bat to the ball during ball contact compared to a horizontal angle of zero° and a vertical angle of 90°. During a forehand loop against BACKSPIN, the BAT ANGLE is often about 45°, whereas during a forehand loop against TOPSPIN, the BAT ANGLE is sometimes as low as 30°. However, the ARM STROKE ANGLE (that describes the angle of the BAT'S FORWARD and UPWARD vectors in space) during a loop against backspin is often between 45° to 60° to help LIFT the BACKSPIN ball over the net. But the ARM STROKE ANGLE during a forehand loop against TOPSPIN often involves a more forward vector and so the ARM STROKE ANGLE during ball contact of a loop against TOPSPIN is often as low as 30°. In summary, in my opinion, for a loop against BACKSPIN, the BAT ANGLE is often about 45° and the BAT MOVEMENT ANGLE (the angle of the arm and therefore the bat moving forward to the ball) is often between 45° and 60°. But during a counter-loop against TOPSPIN the BAT ANGLE is often as low as 30° with a BAT MOVEMENT ANGLE often as low as 30° as well.

@PechPongTT

2 жыл бұрын

Hi yes, I would say the you are correct with your angles, typically the racket angle on heavy backspins is around 50 degrees and the arm movement is upwards about 50 degrees and you are correct about the topspin swing being say 30 degrees and also 30 degrees on arm movement. There is however a change when powerlooping underspin loops your racket angle is about say 55 degrees pretty open and your forearm movement upward is around 40 degrees and your acceleration is is pretty high, this is the technique the Chinese use seen mostly during multiball. hope that helps :)

Rubbers with high throw such as T05 or Rakza 7 require a very different backhand technique vs lower throw rubbers such as Mxp. I found my bh game was far more natural with lower throw rubbers where I could block and loop far more easily.

@PechPongTT

2 жыл бұрын

This is a very good point!! I agree 100% and it’s funny because I’ve met people who love the low throw angle rubbers such as MX-P I played mx-p for 8 years and when I put rubbers like tenergy or dignics I feel much better. Everyone is different in how they feel the ball.

For me, using bh to loop under table is the hardeat. I can't find the brushing feeling. Usually I just push back 😅.

@PechPongTT

Жыл бұрын

Yeah maybe the motion is tough and the feeling can be hard to get, maybe videotape it and see where it looks different from the pros, I would say the common faults are to reach for the ball and not let the ball come into the hitting zone and secondly I think if the elbow is moving around too much it’s hard to make a consistent stroke on the ball so try to keep it fixed, imagine a windshield wiper or a door hinge and keep the elbow steady also imagine trying to spin a wheel in with your stroke you don’t want to hit the wheel but brush it gently and make it spin.

What do you mean by open angle?

@PechPongTT

2 жыл бұрын

Good question, if red is your backhand then closed would be red pointing strait at the floor. Open would mean red is showing to your opponent.

Just look at truls His backhand is all different. Nott too many fast straight and low shots. Arking and spiny. Many miss those in returns.

Thanks for your information ❤️❤️❤️ Please put an Arabic language translation in subtitle.

I’m here again ! 😂Already watch this two times already. 👍I still have some questions about the body movement part. You have mentioned the arm structure should stay the same when block/top spin, but how about the body movement? Are they the same ? Also, What kind of role do you think the body parts(core,legs) play in short distance backhand? Some (not every) pro coaches here even say there is no need to use your body in short distance, which makes me a bit confused.What do you think? p.s. I’m looking forward to the next video.🤩

To make sure my understanding is correct, I make conclusion for bh near the table as follow: New school: The mechanism is more about the forearm and the wrist (like 80%).Your core and legs mostly responsible for stability and recovery. Old school: Body(50%)+arm(shoulder, forearm and wrist)50% (the percentages are approximation. I know there isn't a correct answer) pros and cons: New school recovers faster and is more efficient. Suitable for near table play. Old school is slower but stronger. Suitable for easy ball( high and slow) or far distance. Am I right?🤔
