Could you make a similar video with reverse pendulum? Perhaps ZJK / FZD as examples on how they set up their backhand loops/flicks or their forehand loops

Да здорово 👍 Не каждый может позволить себе так глубоко заходить под форхенд, тебе подставят вправо глубоко и всё. Чтобы так глубоко заходить под форхенд надо иметь форхенд Ма лонг. Остальным это не поможет)

How to generate considerable spin in the pendulum serve? My pendulum serve doesn't have enough spin, especially the backspin serve. Opponents are able to return it strong.
