Hi Emil,
The blade is fast so it will be difficult to get control. I think you can change blades and keep the same rubbers and you should be able to develop more control in the rally.
As to which blade, I will leave that up to the experts. Just get something that is slower rated. There's a thousand choices out there.

Hi Emil,
It is not just you that has this problem. It is difficult to get them to do it until they realise the benefits. I get them to do some fun movements off the table. Perhaps a relay with this movement or a competition to see who is the fastest.
Other than that it is a constant reminder. Sometimes they don't realise that they are standing up again.

BTW. Can you make A video about Dubble??

Emil,
Let me know how it goes with your drill. I get them to have a race sometimes and they naturally want to go faster and so they bend their knees. This is another idea.
Regarding the video on doubles, what aspects in particular are you thinking about? Is it the rules or strategies? We are going to make a Doubles strategies lesson os part of our Match Strategies Course.

The Doubles I just mean the basic like what servs to do and NOT to do. How to think when your moving and whats the easist way to win the ball. The kids I train have problems with it. I have tried to tell them. Don´t hit the Ball so hard. Just keep it on the Ball and Aim for the Guy that hit the Ball to you so he´s in the way for the other guy and so on. But they still want to Hit the Ball and miss and lose the point :P If they see someone More Experience and Grownup say it maybe they Lissen.
I use the send them the Youtube clip if I see something you have put up that I want them to see. If there is something they have to think about for example the Underhit topspin. They have found it more easy to hit if you dont got the time to make A normal topspin and still works better then just A normal Hit.
BTW. Just an Idee to you. If you allso have them problem to do something do like I did before. Everytime they diden´t do as i said. I punished them with A think called "eternity" 2 teams. One team on 1 Corner and the Other team on the vertical corner. Then when I tell them to 1 on each team RUN! and are gonna take the other guy that run on the back. When you have run 1 turn around the hall you swap to next person and so on until 1 team take the other on the back. And to make them run I make like A punish there to like the person geting taken have to make 10 push up. Then everyone run becouse they dont want to get taken. Just an Idee to you ^^ Thanks agian for the great tips :)

Thanks Emil for all of that information and the ideas.
The only thing I think we need to think about more is punishing them with exercises when they don't do something right because then they will learn to hate exercise more.
Perhaps think about rewarding the better ones with something. Perhaps they move up a ranking place or something similar to that.
