Thank you, glad you like it! 😊

In Madison, WI.

​@@hyn3kMay I join? I am from South Korea 😅

@@restzhu6948Sure! Come join us in the Madison Table Tennis club in the East Madison Community Center, 8 Straubel Ct, Madison, WI 53704. We play Mon/Wed 7-9:30 pm, and on Saturdays 10am-1pm. We set up 8-10 tournament grade tables for the sessions.

Thank you, so glad! 😊

Thanks, it’s an old habit I’m trying to get rid of but it’s hard.

Thanks! 😊

Agreed. They come from times when service regulations were different and just keep the habits from their youth. But it’s a good pressure training and the contact point is always visible in their case. I find this less troubling than when players have a textbook toss and then hide the contact point. It’s rare for me to meet a player who wouldn’t be either Type 1 or Type 2 lol

Thank you ^_^

Thank you~~~

Till when are you in Qingdao? I will visit in July-August.

@@hyn3k I will be in QingDao this month and next month

@@hyn3k where are you? I am in Australia

@@tiezhengsun9303 I see. I’m in the US. I could contact you with some players in Qingdao, if you like? Do you use WeChat?

Thank you~~~ ^^

xD

You have a good ear! It’s even worse, he’s using long pips :-)

Thank you for the kind words~ This club is great and people are very nice. We all try to improve and it’s not always going that great, but it’s been lots of fun in the process.

On Wednesday, before my flight back.

Thanks, haha. I wish I can pull off some of his trick shots one day!

Dallas Table Tennis Club.

Hope we can get together sometimes soon. Missing your lethal forehand bombs, Chandu!

:-)

I want that backhand!

@@hyn3k he has donic bluestorm Z1 which is super fast

Chuck’s attacks are hard to handle!

I miss playing ^^

@@hyn3k me too ^_^

Thank you for the great time, bro. Let’s play again soon!

Yay, thank you! ^_^

I don’t have rating. I used to be 1800 in 2014, didn’t compete in rated events since then and USATT voided it. How about you? Do you play with the UTD TT club?

@@hyn3k I don’t have rating yet and I play in UTD table tennis but never tried out for team

@@sunjongyun5694 Nice. The Team A level is high!

@@hyn3k I would say yes and no cause this year, they made 8 people in A team which is too many and I can beat the bottom people but not the top people

Nice, then your level is pretty high!

Heartbroken lol

Where are you located? We play in Madison, Wisconsin.

@@hyn3k wow that’s really far. I live in Carrollton and I was just interested when you visited UTD table tennis and Dallas table tennis club

@@sunjongyun5694 I see. I usually visit Dallas once or twice a year and on that occasion usually play both at UTD and Coach Kim’s place. Do you know Seewon?

@@hyn3k yeah I played him recently. I go to Dallas table tennis club sometimes on Friday

@@sunjongyun5694 Nice! We’re pretty close. Please say hi to him for me next time!

He isn’t. But he visits Madison once in a while just to remind us who’s the tt boss xD

The incoming ball was a backspin, the stroke was converting it into a topspin. We usually call this a flick stroke in table tennis. A backhand topspin practice would rather refer to looping a ball with some level of incoming topspin (if the incoming topspin is high, it’s sometimes called a counter spin).

@@jesseyu7790 Hey Jesse, I did not mean to sound confrontational, I was just describing the content in the video and referring to the common tt terminology. Obviously we both love ping pong and sharing some information here, there is no point in dominating the debate and hopefully our opinions are not necessarily biases, just different views. There is a lot of ambiguity in tt terminology - like you can always say you are 'looping' a backspin, there is nothing wrong about it. Sometimes people refer to a 'flick' only when you loop the backspin over the table, but I heard some ITTF commentators using the term flick also when looping the backspin even behind the table. I think it's fine as far as we understand each other. I am not sure if you are questioning the term 'flick' in this video because of the length of the ball trajectory? You can see the ball is looped over the table. Or if you are questioning whether the arriving ball was a backspin? I am the person in the video and the incoming balls were all backspin, I promise you that. Regarding the contact point with the ball, it is definitely easier to flick the ball when contacting it more from the bottom side, with the 'Chiquita' stroke. But in modern tt, it became really popular to flick the ball also by going directly over the ball (one player making it very popular is Morizono). If you match or exceed the speed of the backspin ball rotation with your paddle, you can still contact the ball towards its upper part and comfortably lift it over the net. Because if your paddle is contacting the ball with a faster speed than the backspin rotation, it is similar to looping a no spin ball. You will still put an arc on the ball and curve it on the table. That is exactly what I was practicing in the video. I hope this clear things up a bit. Glad to hear you like practicing with a robot too~

Yep I agree, this 100% looping or “topspin” the flick is always over the table, hence the use of the wrist and lowered body.

Are you at UTD?

@@hyn3k I go to UTD
