OOAK Table Tennis Forum

I played a very experienced guy over the weekend with short pimples on forehand, long pimples on backhand. He had such good control in keeping the ball short off my serves (normally I try a long kicking topspin serve into a long pip bh, then loop with my fh). I had to be really patient - opening loop with the bh, then loop with fh, then drop, then loop, then drop... just crazy, all while he was occasionally twiddling. Amazing the shots he managed to get back - really tiring match.
