      I used to play my son at TT when he was little, and let him win (not toooo obviously) - then over the years, it got even, and then I realised I wasn't letting him win anymore. He was becoming a really handy little sportsman, and I felt so very proud of him. Your dad will muck around griefing you, but trust me, he wants you to beat him - All we want from our kids is that they do and have everything better than we did! :0) It's how we earn our stars.

Anyway, don't let dad know, but secretly your dad is very impressed when his own son is actually better at something and loves you. Let him win once in a while though!

    I've been a defensive player for 16 years and I can tell you it takes a lot of time and work on the table as well as physical training to be solid. Kudos to you for taking this challenge, your chops are looking great and I can relate with many of the challenges you're experiencing 😅. I know there isn't much content around for defensive players so if you're interested I have some training videos as well as matches on my channel.

    Great work! Are you going to incorporate the forehand chop into your game, or will you remain with a basic forehand return? I’m a learning defender trying to take it up as my main play style, so the forehand chop is something I try to improve a lot.

    • @Roboyt17
      @Roboyt17 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Forehand chop is an important and fun thing to do, but if you can you should definitely counter loop the ball, because the defensive style ( modern defender) defends until there is an opportunity to attack. You won't win a lot of games if you're just gonna defend the entire game
