Wayyy Better Than Expert Village. ^^
Just watch the one on how to hit backspin.
hey could you put a video on how to play against choppers
could you go more in depth ie. the shoulder position and your elbow positions in forehand and backhand chops, also the different spin shot that are more defensive ie. side spin defensive shot. thanks for everything!
This really depends on your overall style. Attacking players would not use the chop in normal circumstances. This is mainly a stroke for defensive players or for when an attacking player is really on the back foot.
is it advisable to use chop in game,even ur not in defence mode..??
i mean,i always use chop,even im more pro than my opponent..
Oh okay. Thanks =D
It really depends on the style of game you play. If you play defensively most of the game and chop a lot on your backhand, then long pimples are worth considering. If you don’t chop very much on your backhand then I wouldn’t bother with long pimples.
When you put the rubbers onto the paddle, should they be the same? Or one smooth and one pimpled like in the video?
i wouldn’t say it’s impossible, just that there are very few players that would make the chop their primary shot with penhold. Even Ma Lin has been known to chop when he’s in a tough spot and needs to slow down the pace.
thanks for the advice, btw you guys are great and have helped me loads, i played with my friend today and he was blown away my my forehand smashes and flicks lol
For this you will need a custom made Table Tennis bat. This is where you buy the blade separately from the rubbers. Then you can purchase a normal rubber and some long pimples. You should be able to get this from most online Table Tennis stores.
where could i fnd a bat that has normal rubber and one side and pimples on the other? also that isnt that dear to buy
Is this also called a siao??
Yes, for choppers one side is usually a smooth rubber while the other side is a long pimple rubber. the angle of the bat depends on the ammount of topspin on the ball. some long pimples are not affected by spin as much as others. but if a shot has alot of topspin, the bat must be close to a 90 degree angle but when it does not have as much topspin, you should open the bat abit more.
you just use the push=) which gives you no spin or backspin
It doesn’t show how to chop from a chop =[. Or is that very rare and shouldn’t be used? xD.
did you watch the whole video?
horrible defense. ¿wanna chop? so try long pips rubber
hey, since u r an all round player i had a query. How do u return a chop drop shot on either side, u cant top spin it since its not bouncing high and u cant do a conventional chop like this vid or the forehand vid since the ball is going to fall short on the table and bounce twice before coming towards the start position for this shot
should i be making contact with the ball when my are is at a 90 degree angle? also should one side of my paddle be devoted to offense and the other to defense ?
Are you guys going to make at penhold vids?
i would like if you did
mine too and i am also southpaw witch makes it even more ackward for my oponents
Its not that easy to chop in the styles shown here.
