Depends what rubber your using.... Ive never played with tackiness so i wouldnt know. :s I find with euro rubbers, u hit the back of the ball and brush upwards With chinese rubbers like H3 u hit through the ball on the top. ------------- Gatien Extra FH: Hurricane Provincial BH: Palio CJ800 Speed Special thick glue |

Its a give and take on ease and penetration. A normal loop is the easiest and spinniest but happens to be less effective for the modern game than the Chinese loopdrive. You'll notice that often these loopdrives have both the properties of a loop and a smash, making them a potent weapon. In a loopdrive compensating for spin is done with the motion (more upwards for backspin) and not the blade angle, contact should be flat and upon penetration into the sponge the wrist pronated so that the sponge doesn't bottom out on hard shots.

With a rubber such as tackiness you'll want to use some more forward motion as well... Looping with euro and cn rubbers requires completely different strokes. ------------- わが青春に悔なし |

I was taught to two loop drives:
Lifting drive: against low heavy chop use vertical racket near vertical stroke concentrate on spin not forward power. Ball has high arc and kicks high Sinking Drive: against high ball too deep to kill, loop drive forward over top of ball generating max forward power with spin. Ball has low arc and dives to floor. The sinking drive stroke is more or less the same for loop driving against block Of course the actual contact point varies with every shot but if you keep these models in mind you will develop the right instinct for the shot. Remember:_ 1 a ball lower than the net MUST be lifted. 2 If you lift a high ball it WILL go OUT! ------------- inactive dotec carbokev yin he galaxy 1 p ly FH moristo sp AX MAX bh moristo sp ax max |
