Thank you! Trying

So many audiences watching your lesson lol

@@kiwishopper yes I guess while some advice is specific to my technique and drawbacks, there’s a lot of general takeaways for many

[@edy6002]

good session. you can see improvements towards the end of the training. I am wondering why she did not use a penhold grip during the session?

[@chyngyzdavletov214]

thanks! yes, you stop missing once you get into the rhythm. I think she uses shakehand for coaching as it probably is less strain on the wrist compared to penhold as she coaches full day.

Great videos! Do you have any additional tips for bh loop vs underspin?

[@chyngyzdavletov214]

Thank you! It all depends on your current technique. Normally people find it easier to lift underspin with FH than BH, I think, mainly because of wrist. For FH it's often enough to get by without involving wrist when lifting underspin because the overall swing on FH compensates for that, but on BH you gotta involve more explosion and also bigger swing in the wrist, because there's not as much of a natural swing when hitting BH. And since it's harder to control wrist for consistency, people feel more comfortable with their FHs. I'd say try involving more of wrist on BH against underspin and finding that consistent feeling when wrist is not too loose and not too fixed. My wrist is too lose on the video, so I was told to control it more. To one of my friends she told the opposite, so it all depends on particular person's technique.

@@chyngyzdavletov214 Appreciate the detailed response! That's exactly my experience with my forehand. It feels easier likely because I don't use any wrist. Looking forward to more content :)

Whats your equipment - blade & FH + BH rubber?

[@chyngyzdavletov214]

In that session I used Stiga Legacy Carbon (90gr) and Stiga DNA hybrid XH on both sides. I'm experimenting a lot with equipment though and my main blade seems to be Stiga Dynasty Carbon (93-94gr) with either Stiga DNA Platinum H on both sides (XH is also fine, just requires a bit more precision on the contact with the ball) or Tibhar K3 on both sides.

Да, удивительно!

In real matches seldom ppl will return so comfortable for you to open up.

[@chyngyzdavletov214]

It all depends on the level of a particular person you are playing against. In real matches of professionals - yes, this almost never happens. It happens a lot in the matches of beginner amateurs though, and quite frequently on the intermediate-advanced to semi-pro level. So, in my matches I personally get that quite often and this training was useful.
The focus of this training session was on better understanding the concept of lifting the underspin (as it turned out) and playing the successive rally after the opening is returned (which was originally the main thing for me there).
