Liu Yi has already explained to you some of knowledge about backhand rubbing at middle and near tables. If you can rub more than 20 or 30 boards, you can practice hooking. Let's first explain some points to pay attention to. when cutting.
1. Pay attention to problem when cutting ball
(1) Carefully cut off ball
Your body should be relaxed, don't just use your hands to show strength like in tai chi, your body should be soft and you should use softness to overcome hardness. If body is very stiff, ball will be too hard for opponent to use it.
(2) To close force
When you hit ball, your own strength and strength of opponent's ball combine to increase friction on ball return and improve quality of ball.
(3) Ball spin
Actually, rotation of ball also depends on opponent, because longer rubber, more opponent pulls it, more I cut it.
(4) Right shoulder should be lower
When a backhand cuts ball, right shoulder should drop and left should be high.
Generally speaking, there are three methods of cutting ball that fans and friends can learn and use. These are slow cutting, fast cutting and side cutting. Today we are mainly talking about slow cutting.
Second, slow cutting
If opponent is pulling ball with a normal topspin, we can use this method of cutting ball, use tempo wisely, and adjust body on spot.
(1) Basic Actions
1. Racquet Thrust: This kind of hooking is similar to backhand rubbing in middle and near table, but movement must be increased and arm must be raised.
2. Point of impact: Hit ball as it falls and hit ball when ball falls slightly above table.
3. Direction of force: hit ball gently, send it forward a little more, create feeling of a howling ball, that is, stop ball on racket, and then throw it with ball, on friction on board will be better, if residence time is longer, ball will rotate more and racket will be sent to bottom of ball and rubber particles will be sent down.
4. Lobe Shape: The shape of plate should be slightly flat.
(2) Applicable conditions
Cutting ball in this way can make ball move smoothly across scene. To cope with general topspin of ball, you need to cut arc of ball for a very long time. This is more suitable for those who have just started to practice cutting ball. when slowly cut ball hits ground, it rolls back.
When you first start practicing, you can walk around slowly and then move a little closer to the stage.
