god i suck at ping pong

[pingskills]

@Bassisbeastiful Oh well. At least there's room for improvement :)

hello, would this be a valid strategy? I first use my forehand rubber(inverted) as my backhand to initiate the chopping rally then twiddle to my long pimples for BH and chop from there?

[pingskills]

@aznfluteboy Yes, twiddling your paddle is definitely a valid strategy which a lot of choppers use.

my coach keeps telling me not to use all of my arm to do a backhand chop stroke.He said only use my forehand to the chop.Is it much better to use my whole arm or just use my forearm to do the chop?

[pingskills]

@jonasbrothersrulz120 For a push over the table you only need to move your forearm. For the backhand chop when you are further away from the table you can use a little bit more of your whole arm. If you watch the video though, you'll see that the forearm still does most of the work.

I do this everytime I play pingpong. Im really good at it but i didn't even know I was doing a backhand chop. Just practice a bit and it becomes really fun.

@liontoxicatorR Long pimples can really help when chopping. Short pimples not as much.
