    / top8tt Ma Lin (马琳, 馬琳 )is a retired Chinese table tennis player. He learned to play table tennis at the age of five and became a member of the provincial team in 1990. In 1994, he joined the Chinese national team.
    Part 2 is out: **Ma Lin - Penhold God II (Signature Shots)**
    • Ma Lin - Penhold God I...
    *Sorry for text at the start of the video, I try to hide it with annotations, but that only works on desktop pc. I can't edit that without creating a new video. It is only about 10 seconds. My new videos doesn't have that, I know the rules now. Thank you!*
    Ma Lin uses the penhold grip. An aggressive player, he is known for his converse unpredictable serves, heavy short push receives, fast footwork, and powerful third ball attacks. In addition to possessing a solid backhand block, Ma Lin also uses the reverse penhold backhand (RPB), an innovative stroke utilizing the underside of the blade which allows a penholder to produce topspin from both wings. The most dangerous weapon Ma Lin has in his arsenal, however, is his consistent forehand loop, which he often uses to end a point decisively. He is also considered as a master at serving and his serve is considered one of the best in the world earning the nickname "Ghost Service". It involves the ball bouncing back to the net instead of going straight out of the table.
    Because of this, Ma Lin has claimed the titles "Maestro Ma Lin," "Defense Killer," and "Table Tennis Olympic Champion."
    Ma Lin is currently using a Yasaka Ma Lin Extra Offensive Penhold as his blade. He uses DHS NEO Skyline 2 TG2 for his forehand and Butterfly Bryce Speed FX for his backhand.

      Penhold también tiene sus ventajas, no te bloqueas mentalmente entre cambio de derecha a izquierda. Eso sí, exige juego de muñeca...el jugador elige el estilo y la empuñadura que mejor le va.
      Lo curioso de Ma Lin es esa fuerza y agresividad cuando literalmente mata la pelota. Y esos bloqueos y dirección impecable. Fué un peldaño más arriba con el TT .

    If you are a penholder, and you just want to improve your technique - watch Wang Hao. An unprecedented, beautiful and unique style, simply a joy to watch.
    However, if you want to improve any other aspect of your game - just watch Ma Lin. Tactics, strategy, serve, dedication, discipline... and shenaniganry. A lot of shenaniganry. He is the main reason why I switched to penhold grip as an adult.

    • @GIN.356.A
      @GIN.356.A 7 ปีที่แล้ว +15

      Yeah Ma Lin has a hard time against solid 2 wing shakehand attackers, but Ma Lin is a really smart and aggressive player, which is more important for penholders. The way I see it, Because Wang Hao is no weakness in his backhand, he cant be exploited by shakehand players, and penhold's advantage when dealing with balls in the middle gave Wang Hao an edge. However, Ma Lin (and Xu Xin now, to a certain extent) does not rely on out-playing, Ma Lin gambles on every chance ball and plays a lot of "all or nothing" shots with extremely high single shot quality. And often times, Wang Hao, and other shakehand players could not withstand the Gambit. Personally, I think penholders should play like Ma Lin and develop a crafty and extremely aggressive playstyle, of course we should work on our backhand to mitigate its weakness whenever we could, but that should not be the focus.

    One of the greatest if not the greatest of all time G O A T Ma Lin was a very intelligent player extremely smart I've seen him compete live many times his strikes were all logic pure talent and skill at its finest making a lot of his returns impossible for his opposition to hit back simply due to his opponents body position making his counters impossible to return like boxing once your arm or body is fully extended and the counter hit immediately follows makes it impossible to protect or hit back

      ways to offensive to be compared to nadal. nadal plays a lot behind the base line with very heavy topspin. ma lin plays shorts with pushes and blocks, and likes to counter topspin for short points. just when he has to, he goes into top- top rallies!
