Hi Alois and Pingskills

ago a few months you told me that you are making a new video with penhold techniques, so when it's going to be ready this video??

Besides i want to know if to a penholder is easier play against a chopper, i usually look to xu xin, wang hao, ma lin and ryu seung min and for they is very easy defeat the backspin of a chop...that is because they are penholders or is just his technique?? (at least to me is very easy defeat the backspin of a chopper)

Thanks

Hi Cristh,

We have been busy with a few other things and haven't been able to make the Penhold videos as yet.

Regarding playing against backspin, I din't think that it is the fact they are penholders.  I think it is just their standard that is better.
