Hey, glad you like the new videos! Spin is very important because it adds safety to your shots and many players find controlling spin much harder than controlling speed. Going for more power without spin is higher risk, of course it’s good to be able to hit with power and spin but the video we just released is looking at a slightly different type of shot where you are trying to get a slow but very spinny ball 🙂
Stretching is important, in the legs especially, because they are used so much in table tennis to move around the court. The main reason is to prevent injury but also in table tennis you need to be flexible and get into good positions with the legs which means stretching is even more important to be able to do this well.
