Playing Style in general what should i really concentrate to
Gabriel Kozakevych asked 6 days ago
Hi so generally when playing table Tennis i really prefer to Play with Speed and for Sure also with Spin. My question is you already gave me answer but Here still i would like to get a more precise one. So generally i prefer to stay Close to mid distance when playing topspins and also Mostly i Take them later but Here a more precise question If my opponent Plays in Like slow Blocks and they are half Long and also generally most of the time slow Blocks should i maybe try to come in to the table and Just playing in with early contact and fast Speed with placement. Because of stay close to mid its difficult there to get Speed in because the Block Is slow and coming half Long also sometimes they alternate between slow Block half Long and slow Block Long so generally do i need Here to come close to the table to generate Speed because this IS the only way to really Put more pressure in with Speed. So i need really Sometimes to come Close to the table keeping there for the whole Rally and playing early contact topspins with Speed in what also IS my Playing Style ?

Ok to me it sounds like you are getting stuck in one position during a rally and if a player is changing their blocks for sure it’s important to adjust and move in closer if the block is shorter for example. So working on your footwork to adjust in rallies and move back in and out will really help, of course you will have a position you feel most comfortable but table tennis is all about adapting and adjusting to what the opponent is doing as well.
Gabriel KozakevychYes but i mean If the Block Is generally slow i should Go in for better Speed and Take the ball early ?
And yes i have this Problem i really Stück in 1 place in sometimes at the table and my opponent Is somehow playing slower in and either Sometimes MIS Hit the ball or the ball IS coming to slow because of this i think generally for soft Blocks i need to stay Close even If i am very tall
DanYes if the blocks are slower then it means you have more time to come in and play a stronger faster attack and and take the ball a bit earlier
