Hello Alois, I would like to ask you about the Birdloop, what is it & how you do it. I see it in the video you vs the Italian. It is the wonderful stroke that I have never seen it before. Thank you coach.

Hi Tanakrit,
It is just a name for a shot that friends having a joke around invented for this strange shot where both my arms go up at the same time.

I have a friend who is learning to be a chopper... We joke calling his chop technique the "pigeon technique" because it looks when a pigeon is eating from the floor.... he needs to correct his technique because it isn't efective against too much Topsipn, but at least, at the moment it is funny to see!!
He and I should get together for a bird match.

You will beat him with your shoe and with your eyes closed
Doesn't sound like you have much confidence in your friend!

actually i have confidence in him, but you're terribly awesome. And it's just a joke, i think you should open your eyes to hit the ball with your shoe :)
Actually, his game don't have good strokes is pure strategical, he knows the disabilities of all of us (My group of friends).
