Icl if u put timo boll in almost goat which he is, Xu Xin has to be there I can’t lie

I really think that alexis lebrun has better forehand than DIMA, when u look at it that he has bigger diversity in forehand, u never see DIMA hit that short balls or flicking soooo.... he is just too rushed

So, you learned nothing?

Hello Vlad. At first I bought table tennis shoes but there came a time when my problems with both knees prohibited me from doing so. I have been using the Adidas Ultraboost for more than 5 years, which are tall and have excellent cushioning. I never sprained. What many parrots repeat about the fact that sneakers should be thin is a lie. It is a lie that you lose speed. If the player has correct leg mobility, no accidents will happen. Greetings and many more successes.

So effortless 😂

my reaction to this video is: it was ok. how did you guys react to my comment?

nice to see you uploading man. hope your knee is doing well

This is why i like adam a bit more. Adam always says, “good serve from this player” or whatever instead of “dumps the easy serve” . Not saying criticism isn’t valid, but you know.

Too bad for such an amazing athlete, Zhang jike at his peak was unbeatable. Literally the best ever when we talk about peak performance and athletic ability. The case has many holes though and whatevet the truth is justice should be served

So Sorry that you go demonetized on KZbin. I also take a lot of small clips from WTT to match match analysis and discuss controversial topics in table tennis but so far the worst that has happened to me is copyright claims from WTT. A lot of my match analysis and discussion videos have copyright claims which means I am not monetized in a lot of them even if the video blows up but I should be grateful that I am not demonetized by KZbin yet. I can still monetize my videos so as long as there is no copyright issues. I also want to add that WTT are really enthusiastic in copyright claiming videos on my channel. A lot of my match highlights videos from long ago like feeder events from 6 months ago and even 2 years ago got copyrighted even though there was no issue for the entire 2 years period. Maybe WTT start noticing my channel and copyright claiming them. What makes me upset is that a lot of those match highlight videos are not upload by WTT themselves but they chose to claim the videos that I edited. But there's nothing much that can be done as they are the rightful owners of the clips. I am just glad I can still monetized in some of my videos 🤭 Anyways hope you success in remonetizing your KZbin and perform well in your new job. New subscriber here!😁

I never watched for training tips I watch to see your progress and on a deeper level to see how you progress your game and emulate it. But I mostly stay to see your progress.

у тебе проблеми з коліном і ти взяв супер-жорсткі nike кроси для занять пауерлівфтінгом щоб грати в теніс? можеш розказати чи є тут якийсь сенс, чи просто гарні кроси?

а yb9 как на турнире этом сыграл?)

pretty nice to watch table tennis with people not screaming SHOHEI all the time.

So sad for your demonetization, please continue to upload videos, I love your content. Greetings from Brazil!

Hey Nice to see you back. Could you please elaborate more on how someone could attend to wtt event? I think having a goal reaching there is awesome!

Hey you think you'll come to Quebec one day? We have some very nice tournaments here and strong players.

Hey vlad! I would love it, if you could video call and do the training. You taught me and my brother at "hope table tennis" and would love it if you shared tips and tricks.

Sir no disrespect but the line ups should go like GOAT : ALMOST GOAT: LEGENDS: ELITES : WORLD TIER : TALENTED enough to be in the world class: coz yeah

Laughable. Sorry I know it's your list but try to tone down your bias. Boll and Dima as almost GOAT ahead of Kong Li Hui who actually won a Gold in Olympic? Both the germans are world class at best. Sorry. Had to say it.

what is your set up?

Whats your name on twitch?

Very insightful ranking! Not perfect, but just love your level of knowledge!

Luca uses a frictionless anti-spin rubber. In simple terms it reverses spin most of the time (similar to long pimples) but it has sponge so you can hit or push a little quicker with it if you choose to. This style of play has been around for decades (close to the table anti or long pimpled combination bat player). Some choppers also use it as part of their strategy so it's something most players should be familiar with. In this match Simon was not prepared as well as he could have been and the strategy was a little off. The Frenchmen definitely had the skills to win the match. A couple of ways he could have tweaked his approach: Just staying in the rally is not a bad idea, especially at the start of the match when you're not familiar with the rubber and the player but it has the disadvantage of making it easier for your opponent. One strategy is to look to play a really hard attack on the first shot so that Luca's percentages on getting balls back go down. You can't do this on every shot but when you have an opportunity you'll often win more points by playing hard instead of playing safe against this style of player. It was obvious Luca wanted to receive serves with his anti, running around his forehand to do it. Simon could take advantage of that by serving short way over on the forehand side thus opening up the table for a wide attack to the backhand. In rallies Simon could push wide to the backhand side (which would give him a topspin ball back) then look to attack wide to the forehand side forcing Luca to use his forehand giving Simon more regular balls to attack or counterattack against. To be good against this style of play you really need to practice against it regularly. It doesn't take a huge amount or practice to get familiar with playing against it. Kallberg demonstrates how to use this concept of attacking much harder when you get an opportunity in this video... kzbin.info/www/bejne/lXy6m2hmmL-HmKs

He might be one of the best in the world today. There would be players in China who use anti playing in the leagues there so there's a good chance there's someone good or even better. Definitely not the best ever. John Hilton from England won the European championship singles in 1980. Chai Zhenhua played for China and used anti. He was a gold medalist in the 83 world teams beating Waldner that year. He went on to become the Chinese coach. Lo Chen Tsung from Hong Kong made the semi finals of the world singles championships in 1985. There are others.

That was insane! :O , crazy side spin

My predicton mens: 1. Fan Zhendong 2. Truls 3. Hugo Calderano 4. Felix Lebrun womens: 1. Chen Meng 2. Sun Yingsha 3. Shin Yubin 4.Hina Hayata

Harimoto woke up Fan Zhendong, he will be incredibly strong against Felix and in the final. Hugo does play far from the table but against Jang Woojing his short game was more than perfect. He has been focusing on his olimpic medal for a long time and I hope he gets it and wins against Truls. Then I hope Truls wins against Felix for bronce, France most likely will win bronce medal in the teams event and Truls surely deserves a medal after eliminating world n1 and carrying the incredible sweden legacy.

My prediction : Gold : Fan Zhendong (im he's Chinese) Silver : Hugo (In the last year he has been insane but still can't beat Chinese) Bronze : Félix (if he plays against truls he will win for sure)

Hugo made history!!!

My prediction is Truls fan final, Felix with bronze medal fan with gold. (Hopefully china lose but fan stepped it up against harimoto when it counted and was playing like crazy)

This year’s TT Olympics is the first one I’ve watched and it’s been hella crazy. No China final would be insane but I still think Fan Zhendong can get it done considering Felix’s close calls against both Lin Yun Ru and Ovtcharov. Then again Fan was pushed to the brink by Harimoto. If Fan Zhendong makes it past Felix I think he’ll beat Hugo. Otherwise Felix vs Hugo would be very interesting. Truls has played really well but from how I remember Wang Chuqin just choked and had a bad game against him. But anything can happen from what we’ve seen so far

Let's go Truls! (Btw Qin is pronounced kinda like the English word chin, kinda like "Wang chew chin" 😂 anyway, good content hope you are well

Hi Vlad, don´t know if you did the backhand to forehand exercise you showed in the vid because I recommended it but good work the sound on the forehand is getting very similar to the one your backhand makes. Great job!!!

Good effort Naresh is an extremely talented player.

Great vid Vlad! Just wondering why you weren't at the Canadian Nationals this year?

Barely

Hey again Vlad, last video I asked about your equipment. I'd call myself a beginner/intermediate player. I currently have a setup of Rakza 7 1.8mm on backhand and Rakza 7 2.0mm on forehand and Yasaka Ma Lin Extra Offensive as the blade. I really like the blade but want a bit more speed for both backhand and forehand. I was thinking of upgrading the sponge thickness to max on BH and FH but also considering other rubber options such as the Dignics series(e.g Dignics 09C forehand, Dignics 05 BH). Something to mention is that I quite like my current setup I just feel that it lacks a bit of speed to finish the points. What would you recommend in terms of progressing your equipment to match the development of technique that a player experiences as they gain more play time(I know that some coaches suggest a fast blade and max thickness rubbers from the get go). Would you first recommend to try to increase the thickness of the sponge before trying out other rubbers to minimize different variables changing at the same time?

do u have any tips on how to get back in form quicker after not playing for a couple of weeks?

Great to see vlad’s dad clap every time he scored a point.

Much better but its quite clear that your knee has a problem. If it was fully fine, you would be ducking lower and putting more pressure on it i guess

When close to the table remember to stay on your right leg and rotate on it, in order to generate power and not overspin. I know that you are way higher level then myself but sometimes evan a master learns from the students. Keep it up bro.

Hey Vlad. One tip, get some table tennis shoes. Once i got to a level in table tennis where the overall pace picked up and i had to move around a bit more, i had to ditch my runners coz i nearly rolled my ankle side shuffling, they didnt have the weight or support. Im currently using andro shuffle step 2 which is grrsr but any table tennis shoes will be better Ps i wouldnt beat you and i aint better than you based on your vids but definitely get some shoes!!

Today I felt a lot of progress on how I’m feeling in regards to my knees, improving little by little everyday is the goal which makes a big difference in the long run!

Wow what a curve

china

Go fetch your own ball haha

LETS GOOOO NEW EPISODE!!!!!

🔥🐐❤ great video vlad!
