There was a Korean middle age player who uses Butterfly Raystorm on forehand and Donic Barracuda on backhand. He is a "professional/expert/pusher". I tried to avoid push , because he is very perfect on push. If I go into pushing mode 10 balls. I would typically "stucked" in that pushing contest ( which I would loose)or I would attempt to open up the game by doing backhand flip. But my backhand flip only 40% successful. ****Its very frustrating***** Is there a video or technique I could watch and learn or something ? |

Does he push short or long? If he pushes long you need to learn how to loop against underspin balls. ------------- OSP Ultimate; Dr. Neubauer Dominance Spin Hard max, Dr. Neubauer Troublemaker 0.5 http://mytabletennis.net/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=55835&title=feed-back-for-matt-pimple" rel="nofollow - My Feedback |

He pushes both short and long to my backhand . When he pushes long ( its like a line drive , very heavy backspin) I have a hard time open a backhand attack. It usually hit the net. |

take the ball on a loop late meaning loop the ball the moment it comes down and open your racket while brushing the ball ------------- Independent online TT Product reviewer of XIOM, STIGA, JOOLA, SANWEI, GEWO, AIR, ITC, APEX, YASAKA and ABROS ITTF Level 1 Coaching Course Conductor, ITTF Level 1 Coach |

At least I got one tip, those hard line drive backspin, I should hit at the highest point, then open brush. I tried to brush a little "from-left-to-right". Not sure if that is necessary. |

Ideally, you would wait for a long push to your backhand that isn't too strong and then do a BH loop, which is easier and more powerful than a BH flip. However, it sounds like you're not that confident in your BH attack. So here's my alternative suggestion: push to the long diagonal to the far corner. When the push comes back to your backhand, step around for a forehand. The idea is that pushing to the long diagonal and getting the push back gives you more time for the step around. |

| If he does not loop FH well, push deep to far FH. It will even easier to attack return with your FH loop as you don't have to step around. |

| Xtra. Learn to do BH loop or Lift the balls. BH flips are not for long spinny pushes. |
