Hi guys, Here are some highlights of the State Championship held in my hometown Monterrey, Mexico. I'm currently using my old JSH Buttefly blade with TSP Curl P1-R 1.5, I find it better for chopping than the Nexy but a bit slower for attacking. Hope you enjoy the video.

Table Tennis Defense - Switching to Victas Curl P1V
Переглядів 18 тис.2 роки тому
Just recently I switched from TSP Curl P1-R to Victas Curl P1V, which is supposedly the same rubber just rebranded, but it definitely doesn't feel the same... This new version feels softer and easier to control, however, it took my a while to figure it out, as I felt I wasn't generating enough spin at first. This improved after weeks of practice and now I'm feeling great about it as my consiste...

I switched from the Butterfly Joo Se Hyuk blade to the new Nexy Joo Sae Hyuk a week before this competition and I've had good results with it. Very similar both blades, I would say the main difference I find is the new version is softer. Great for attacking but I would give a sligh...

Hey guys, in this training session I was mainly focusing on getting a more consistent backhand chop against a strong attack. It's not easy for a chopper finding a training partner that is willing and can endure attacking for this long, so thanks to Mikael! Hope you enjoy the video...

    Hello Andres Rafael! I'm also a big fan of Joo Sea Huyk and today I happened to watch a video of you competing with Joo Sea Huyk - my Idol. I would like to ask you, can you tell me about the process of training, choosing racket blade combos and sucking on both sides from the beginning until forming the current playing style? Thank you Andres Rafael!

      I have tried short pips but to be honest I prefer the long pips because it can generate more backspin and also it’s much safer and consistent. You get other trades with the short pips, maybe more variation and better for attacking but I guess I prefer being as consistent as I can and rely more on my forehand topspin.
