  • Table Tennis Strokes: Power, Rhythm and Speed Combinations
    Table Tennis strokes: power, rhythm and speed combinations LI Xiaodong STROKE COMBINATION VS STROKE LINK Combination : Stroke combination as I understand it is relation between one ball and the following ball. This relation can between same kind of balls as well as between different kind of balls. The scope of combinations is very big. There are many combinations of rhythm, many combinations of power etc. Combinations can be more or less effective. I can play one ball with lot of power, the ball is coming back very fast, and if I try to play again with lot of power, it wouldn't be reasonable; usually it will not be as successful as for instance playing the next ball with medium power. An example of successful combination can be first powerful loop and then the spin loop with less power. Stroke link : The idea of stroke linking in fact is principally the same as stroke combination, however the idea of combination offers more variations. Linking is, as I understand it, continuous using of two various techniques, so this category is more limited. For example many people talk about linking attack with defence -'first attack, then defence', or 'first defence, then attack'. It is rather complicated. "First attack, then defence' link seems to be more difficult and is bigger challenge. Both links have differences - in attack you merely use your own power, in defence you 'borrow the power' a lot; in attack your centre of gravity is in front, in defence you centre of gravity is behind, in attack your swing is rather large, in defence your swing is short etc.
