Such a great video. Love it

congrats Tom, thx for the tip!

Great lesson :)

Thank you for this vidéo 👍

Thanks you

Tom thanks for the video! Do you have a similar video outlining a few different ways to return these serves?

Hey there Tom! Ibrahim here. I am an amateur table tennis player. When practicing, I hit every shot perfectly, and make very little unforced errors, but in a serious match, I make very silly mistakes, miss shots and serve incorrectly. Please take some time to assist me and possibly others who are going through this problem, by recommending a video, or making the extra the effort to make a new video. Love your videos and you, for helping me take my game to upper levels, in countless ways. Thank you.

Hi Tom, keep up the good work,I’m away with Alina in Egypt and she already using third serve now.

i gotta say though... all of your opponents receives looked terrible

Well that's the beauty of video editing. I get to take out all the examples of where they return my serve fine. So yes, I have only included the examples where they played bad, to demonstrate how the tactic can work.

Nice

For left handed players, use a bachand or reverse pendulum serve instead.

Great video. Do you think the Chinese/Asian grip will create a magnified disguise?

@TomLodziak

Yes, a penhold grip can be very good for disguising the spin.

Hi Tom, this might be a little silly question, but I noticed you now using a Hinoki top layer blade. Can you please explain, if you notice any differences and how does it stacks up against koto top layer blades like Viscaria? I am bit interested in knowing what kind of players should opt for Hinoki based blade and does it offers any benefits to loopers who play from mid-distance. Hope you can share your insights. Ignore the question, if you are not interested in talking about equipment.

I used to play with BTY Kiso Hinoki V in celluloid ball era. It was a slow super spinny loop machine. Played with koto top layer as well, much shorter dwell time and softer rubbers bottom our easily

How do these serves fare against left handed players? Do you use them against such opponents?

What blade are you playing with in the video?

The blade is JOOLA Rossi Emotion PBO-c

About spin eg backspin serves: does the ball really roll along the racket when you get a lot of friction ? Or is this a myth ? I have heard that for more back backspin, contact on leading edge of racket as compared with the back edge (which produces less spin), because of this rolling explanation ( contact at back edge has no rubber to roll on).

Ok, this might be off the video topic but gonna ask anyway. I have been playing for months now without any professional training and I think I am gonna go for a custom bat. Online reviews dont really help. I dont have a shop near me where i can try out certain popular rubbers and bats. How do I choose it since I am gonna play with it probably for a year or two?

Usually the reviews on those popular rubbers and bats are accurate. You can compare your current bat with those reviews focusing on the speed, control and throw angle.

I am no expert in any sense of the word, but I spend quite some time researching, as I was in a very similar situation until a month ago, or so. Get a 5 ply blade, with lots of control, accuracy and flex, it will be fast enough, don't worry about that, it allows you to built your basic technique. Same with the rubbers, don't get a fast, bouncy rubber, no tensor or spring sponge, but something with a decent amout of spin and control, and a sponge that is neither too thick or to hard. I got a Joola Challenger All (stands for allround) blade, and Joola Rhyzen Ice rubbers on forehand and backhand. No carbon blades, no super fast rubbers, go for control, accuracy and flex. Donic Waldner Allplay is also good I heard. Donic Quattro also is a good beginner rubber. Do not change the set up for at least 6 months, it will take some time to get used to the increased spring and spin it delievers, compared to your old department store racket. I love my first custom set up, and I would definitely recommend it to an motivated beginner. I know I will go for somethig a bit more offensive as my next set up, since I found out that I am definitely more of an offensive player (my attacks and counter attacks are far stronger than my blocks and chops), but for the time my set up works really well. I feel like I'm getting better every time I play. Here is a video that really helped me out. kzread.info/dash/bejne/mXuZra2oqMnUndI.html

It all depends on what kind of player you want to be. But if you're an agressive attacking player start with a reasonably fast blade but slower softer rubbers and then upgrade the speed of your rubbers over the space of a few years until you're where you want to be.

great video. the only "problem" with this tactic is that higher level opponents receive those servers with a fast "chickita" backhand.

Gereğinden çok fazla konuşuyor. Daha fazla video ve daha yakın ve ağır çekim gerekiyor. Hiçbir ayrıntı yok, normal maç izlermiş gibi bakıyor hiç bir şey görmüyoruz. Yakın ve ağır çekim gerekiyor. Konuşmalar çok çok fazla ve gereksiz.
