Footwork looks great. Incidentally, I think she's the shortest chopper I've ever seen!

Also, great angle on the 2019 match vs Ekholm. You can really see how low the chops are.

How tall is she? Linda has been my favorite for the last few months, as far as emulating style wise. I like her ratio of attack to defense, trying to keep the percentages high.

I didn't know at the time I posted - her body proportions and movements just look like those of a very short person - but since you asked I looked it up. She's 5'3"/160 cm.

How dare you, sir! She has the proportions of an angel :lol:

Seems to be the same height listed for suh hyo won and kim song I. Wu yang is set at 5'8 and han ying at 5'7

Do we take that to mean that all short people must use long pips!?

Nothing wrong with liking short ladies :) My perceptions are probably just skewed because most of the choppers I can think of on the men's side are tall - Gionis is tall, Filus is above average height, Joo is above average for a European and pretty tall for a Korean, Hou Yingchao is a fair bit taller than average for a Chinese guy iirc, etc.

Well after that thought provocation, I had to go and look up the height of a bunch of defenders!

Just the purported heights, nothing verified so take that for what it's worth...

Joo 5'11
Gionis 6'2
Filus 6'0
jang song man 5'5
chen weixing 5'8
pattantyus 5'9

I'd assume guys like Matsushita, Shibutani, Masato and other japanese choppers were all similar height around 5'9 or less


For women's it looks like 5'3 to 5'8 is the average range. Some european choppers are a bit taller, like Bilenko (5'10) or Pavlovich (5'9).

She played a match against Stina Källberg today. It can be seen on ITTF's facebook page.
https://www.facebook.com/ITTFWorld/vide ... 751856126/

Quite impressive as she changed from Curl P1R to Spin Pips Chop 2 just some weeks ago. I asked Japsko and she's using 1.5mm.

That was a real battle there! I skipped ahead during the facebook video thinking Linda had it won easily... much more of a nail biter than I thought!

Any idea why she changed to SSPC II?

One of the reasons (according to the Swedish commentator) is that she wants to be able to attack better with the BH. She works quite closely with Japsko and I can only assume that it was Marcus Sjöberg’s idea. He has worked with a lot of other pimple players (for example Åkerström) so he knows his stuff.

Bonus video of one of her first multi ball sessions with SP:

Yes, but unevitably her defense will suffer like can be seen in the game against Källberg. Why just not twiddle at the right moment?
