What are the essentials of straight crosscourt hitting ah

I. Grip method According to my observation, many table tennis fans will straight paddle backhand simply understood as using the back of the paddle to hit the ball, and thus the grip posture with the original straight paddle grip method, without any change, wrist external rotation with the back of the paddle outward to hit the ball. However, due to the inability to correctly control the shape of the racket, this type of backspace hitting style can not hit powerful and accurate attacking shots. The reason for this is that the original straight racket grip, which makes the racket angle with the longitudinal extension of the arm (compare the correct grip below to realize the meaning of this statement), is a big no-no.

The correct grip should be according to the following points:

1. Thumb diagonal light pressure on the racket surface, the left side of the handle close to the tiger's mouth;

2. index finger straight light on the right side of the right edge of the racket;

3. three fingers on the back of the back of the spread Lei, and let the finger end of the back of the racket;

4. wrist slightly inward rotation will be the racket surface and the ground perpendicular to the ground;

5. 5. Thumb light pressure, index finger light pressure, let the beat face basically on the arm extension line. At this point that is ready to counterattack. Here we especially emphasize: the beat face should be basically in the arm extension line. This is because the formation of the racket shape, and tennis, badminton and table tennis cross-grip formation of the racket shape is completely consistent with their *** with the advantages of the backhand to play the overhand ball, underhand ball are very natural, unlike the traditional straight racket to play the backhand when you need to be a complex and not good at all to master the process of turning the wrist. From the point of view of the beginners we instructed, playing backhand is much faster than the conventional method. Some players who have been practicing for a few years and have not mastered the backhand attack quickly learned it, which also shows that the straight paddle backhand is not a masculine but a feminine way to learn the backhand attack, which is a shortcut to learn the backhand attack in table tennis.

Pulling the backhand arc ball (above)

In the traditional straight and cross-court match, the backhand arc ball is the most important ball in the table tennis game. In the "straight racket backhand" technique before the emergence of the traditional straight racket can not hit the backhand arc ball. The following method of play can change the passive situation of the straight racket, more or less.

One, backhand high hanging arc ball

Standing slightly away from the platform, about 60cm or a little farther, the right foot slightly in front of the two knees slightly flexed, abdominal chest, the body turned slightly to the left, the upper arm near the body, elbow slightly protruding forward, the right arm naturally bending, the forearm left lead and sinking, will be led to the body of the left leg near the knee, the wrist drooped inward, to be the ball from the surface of the table bouncing up to the high point of the period, the upper arm drives the forearm up and slightly forward swinging hard. When the ball bounces from the table surface to the high point, the upper arm drives the forearm to swing the racket upward and slightly forward, and in the descending period of the incoming ball, keep the stability of the racket shape introduced in the previous section, and slightly rotate the arm outward so that the racket surface is slightly tilted forward and friction is slightly upward of the middle of the ball, and the moment of touching the ball, the wrist quickly spreads out to rotate the racket and at the same time, the feet stirrups up and the waist and hips rotate to the right to assist in the exertion, so as to make the ball strongly upward. After hitting the ball, the arm is swung forward and upward with the head, and quickly restored to the ready position. Beginners do not require a good initial pull, after all, this is a difficult action, but it can enhance your confidence, and all of a sudden make you stand on the high ridge, as the so-called high roof, which is why we first chose to introduce the backhand arc. In practice, I also do this, the effect is very good.

Second, forward arc

Forward arc ball and high hanging arc ball compared to the arc, the arc is low and long, the ball speed is faster, landing on the stage after the forward force and sliding, more powerful than the high hanging arc ball. In order to better understand and master these two types of curveballs, we may compare them in the following table: Type of Curveball High-hanging Curveball Forward Curveball Racket Pattern "Natural Pattern" Forward Tilt Pattern (Slightly Forward Tilt Pattern) Strike Time Incoming ball's descending period Incoming ball's high or descending period Pre-touching part Middle part of the body, slightly upward Middle and upper part of the body Racket Position Left leg near the knee joint The left side of the body slightly downward forearm rotation natural state forearm external rotation arm movement direction upward slightly forward forward slightly upward

Three, pulling the arc ball common problems

Whether it is a high hanging arc ball, or forward arc ball, in order to pull it should be prevented and overcome the following common problems: 1. racket shape is too leaning forward, cut too thin, pulling the ball; 2. swinging a few into a straight line, creating the proper arc The correct method is to use the elbow joint as a guide. The correct method is to take the elbow joint as the axis, the arm follows the trend from the bottom of the first slightly to the left, and then to the top of the front for the approximate small arc of the swing. That is to do the so-called whip movement, is like a whip naturally to the head, someone image described as a big military salute. Of course, it is possible to make a big arc wave with the big arm, but the requirement to make an arc wave is the same.

3. The wrist does not have the "plus spin" action, and does not master the wrist inward (not flexion), touching the ball moment of adduction (not extension);

4. The body is stiff, the waist and hips do not assist in the development of power. In order to check whether your body is coordinated, you may want to read my rewritten version of the "Three Character Classic of Table Tennis" written by a player in Taiwan: "Stand low on the toon, lift the heel a little, hold the racket loosely, and take the momentum seriously; live the fingers and wrists, turn the waist quickly, swing the arm swiftly, and rely on the coordination of a thousand pounds. "

Four, how to pull a good arc ball

To pull a good arc ball in addition to learning and practicing, should also pay attention to the following points:

1, cut the ball to thin. Can be imagined as a sharp knife from the middle or upper center of the ball cut off a very thin piece, and the ball is not deflated.

2, speed and strength. To fully mobilize the power of the whole body, in addition to the arm, wrist to have explosive force, waist, hip and leg to assist the force. Wrist rotation is particularly important, in the moment of touch, to give the ball rotation with an acceleration.

3, with the swing to be full. The hand should not stop after hitting the ball, but should make a full swing, which is the same as the tennis batting action requirements.

4, the racket viscosity should be large, the greater the viscosity of the racket, the better the effect of friction on the ball, the easier it will be to put the ball to strengthen the rotation. In addition to professional players who have the condition to replace the new sponge rubber before each match to maintain its good viscosity, table tennis enthusiasts should pay attention to protect the viscosity of their own rubber by wiping off the dust with a wet soft foam after each practice, and then cover it with plastic film after it dries naturally.

5. Try to prolong the distance between the arm of the ball and the friction between the ball and the racket. In order to most effectively extend the force arm of the ball, the simplest way is to hit the point as close as possible to the head of the racket, and extend the distance between the ball and the friction of the racket should try to play in the lower part of the racket. So the ideal point of contact for pulling the arc ball should be the lower part of the racket head. Five, how to practice backhand pull the arc ball Because pull the arc ball needs very good body coordination and explosive force, so the traditional straight racket player even if the forehand position of the arc ball to pull the good is not easy, let alone backhand pull the arc ball. First of all, it is recommended that you come to the low point of the ball down period up slowly pumping practice, the technical essentials are: the ball from the table surface after the pop-up do not rush to pull up, to wait for the ball to land to the lowest point, at this time, with a slight backward tilt of the racket type, upward slightly forward to pump the ball in the middle of the lower part of the ball and pay attention to the friction to be greater than the impact force (the method is to listen carefully to the beat of the ball, the sound of the sound of the sound of the crisp is the sound of the impact, indicating that the ball is the impact is the main; the sound of the sound of dull is the sound of the rubbing (By listening carefully to the sound of the racket, the sound is crisp, indicating that the ball is mainly impact; the sound is dull friction, indicating that the ball is mainly friction) through the practice of gradual transition to the highest point of the incoming ball to the top of the diagonal pumping, and in the moment of touching the ball wrist quickly outward, which became a powerful backhand arc circle ball.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For the close-to-the-table fast attackers, being forced to leave the table often has disastrous consequences. disastrous consequences, but mastering the backhand far draw can turn passive into active. In fact, due to the middle and far platform pumping action, the lead is sufficient, creating a good arc, and therefore high accuracy, coupled with the power of heavy, but also often is an important means of direct scoring. Japanese and Korean players in the straight board in the far table forehand pumping performance is particularly prominent, they often near the table after the ball active step back, in order to be in the middle of the far table vigorously pumping, but this one-sided attacking method, its backhand is also a weak point. With the traditional method to kill the middle and far billiard ball is certainly very good, but how many people can master it well? How many people dare to boldly start the board? Most people still rely on the push block Lei back to hit backhand, because the backhand draw degree is quite difficult. Adopting the backhand method introduced here can solve this problem better. When hitting from the middle to far side of the table, your body is usually 1 meter or more away from the table. In order to be able to fully develop power, the right foot should be slightly stepped forward, two knees slightly flexed, abdominal chest, the body slightly leaning forward and slightly to the left to turn the waist, stretching the shoulders and pulling the arm, the beat to the left side of the body below the moment of hitting the contraction of the muscles to do a good job of the full stretch, in the incoming ball bouncing from the surface of the table to the high point of the period, the upper arm to drive the forearms above the force, with the initial beat in the incoming ball in the decline period of the hit of the lower middle and the stirrups, straight waist, waist and hip drive the upper body to the right rotation to assist the force, after hitting the ball to the right, and then the upper body to the right to help the force. Right rotation to assist the force, after hitting the ball, the arm swings forward and upward, and pay attention to the forearm with the swing of the external rotation to create the arc of the ball, the long and intermediate attack should pay more attention to the swing with the action to do the full. At this time, the center of gravity shifts to the right foot, and pay attention to quickly return to the ready position, the arc of the return ball should be high enough to be able to cross the net to the opponent's table. From the above analysis, it can be seen that it is very suitable to use the straight racket to hit the backhand center-range billiard ball. A common mistake in backhand center-range billiards is that after the racket is swung, the forearm does not rotate with the swing, resulting in no change in the shape of the racket, which seems to lift the ball forward, creating no arc, and therefore the ball is hit away, or just sends the ball back to a half-height ball. This is a very common problem in the traditional straight racket when hitting the ball from the center to the far side of the table. Another common problem is not extending the arm and pulling the shoulder enough, so that the whole body does not coordinate well when hitting the ball, and therefore the return power is not enough. Since the ball is hit in the middle of the far table, the return of the ball does not have a certain power and speed, and the flight distance of the ball is long, so it is difficult to constitute a threat to the opponent.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

One, fast pivot

Backhand fast pivot, some people abroad also known as the "pushing the ball backhand strong hit", is an important means of offense and offensive and defensive transition. Because of the high frequency of this technique, it must be fully emphasized as the basic skill of backhand attack. If you play fast pivot well, just like you play the bottom line well in tennis, you can gain a lot from this technique alone. The brilliant results achieved by the world champion Wang Tao with his amazing fast-pitch technique illustrate this point. Compared with the traditional backhand block, the backhand fast pivot has the advantages of wide range of adaptability, strong power, fast speed, and difficult return angle. General backhand blocking to adapt to the height of the ball back only in the surface of the chest, more than the chest is very difficult to block, and fast dialing is not subject to this limitation, the care surface can also be wider. Combined with the power of the wrist, the power of the return is much greater than that of the push block, and it can also be hit at a greater angle. Practice shows that fast pivots often have an advantage over push blocks because they can return the ball at a greater angle than push blocks. In addition, fast pivot compared with other backhand techniques, small movements, line live, fast ball speed, can fully borrow the power of the incoming ball, but also can be self-powered attack "soft" ball. The core of the backhand fast pivot is the wrist shaking force, so some people call it "flick pivot", but there is a difference with the later discussion of the flick ball. The whole process of the action is: stand close to the center line to the left of the stage, two knees slightly bent and stand flat, stomach and chest, the racket arm Natural bending racket to the left in front of the abdomen, the elbow slightly protruding forward, the racket on the surface (which is to hit the ball for the first time) Wrist inward and inward bending, when the ball from the back of the surface after the ball bounced up, forearms and wrists mainly to the right in front of the right front or right front of the top of the swinging racket to meet the ball, the incoming ball in the rise of the wrist to develop the force of the outward stretching and stretching, the front of the racket tilted to the type of ball. The ball is struck in the shape of a bouncing ball. At the same time, the forearm rotates outward, and after hitting the ball, do a good job of swinging and restoring the action, and the center of gravity of the body remains unchanged during the action. A common problem with the backhand fast paddle is that there is no forward motion of the forearm, and the wrist quickly flips the racket to hit the ball, which is similar to throwing cards when playing poker. Due to the lack of arm forward motion, can not create an ideal return arc, can only hit a few topspin high ball. In addition, the arm forward motion is not sufficient to hit a powerful ball. In this regard, it may be worthwhile to observe the movement of the Croatian athlete Primorac: the arm forward seems to touch the net, so that the movement is complete and full, only with power.

Second, popping

This is the unique popping method of this grip, the action method is similar to the fast paddle, but the racket shape is not the same. The shape of the racket is the initial shape, the racket face moves around the handle in the reverse direction to become a vertical shape. When the ball bounced from the table, the arm bends to meet the front, the wrist quickly bends inward, so that the racket surface is parallel to the end line of the table, in the high point of the incoming ball, the forearm naturally stretches forward, the wrist forcefully extends, shaking, with a vertical or slightly tilted racket shape, the impact of the ball's middle and upper part. This bouncing method is simpler and more practical than the traditional bouncing of the ball with the front of the racket, and you can instantly choose between fast paddling and bouncing. Therefore, it can also be regarded as a special racket shape under the fast dial, and some people also collectively referred to these two types of hitting method as "flick".

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Under normal circumstances, the traditional push block stroke should be used, because the traditional straight racket push block stroke is flexible and mature. variations are flexible and the technique is mature. It would be a pity if straight shooters give up the advantage of push blocking. When we have solved the backhand pulling arc circle backhand plucking and other backhand attack ball, and then face the problem of how to play good push block, the fish and the bear's paw can not be both! Obviously, it is inconvenient to switch from the backhand shape to the blocking shape with the existing traditional straight racket, which is an inherent defect of the traditional straight racket. This is an inherent flaw of the traditional racket. It is clear that the traditional racket must be revolutionized. The main application of the method described here is when it is too late to convert from the aforementioned backhand to the traditional push-block racket. At this time, you only need to bend the wrist, and let the initial racket shape forward, the racket surface parallel to the end line of the table; keep the racket surface fixed, when the ball bounces from the table surface, the big arm ball drive the small arm forward to the top of the ball, do a good job with the swing and restore the action. In my opinion, since we have learned the "straight shot backhand" technique, backhand is determined to grab the pull, especially when you find the opportunity to turn the beat shape into a backhand beat shape after attacking the ball, not to have the slightest hesitation, try not to change the beat shape again.
