[PrinceWhacker]

[hurley2323]

Why dont you crreate your dvd?

[warmachine6063]

damn man teach me

[SkypiperVEVO]

take care of ur shoulder.

[ItMustBegod]

lol not looping spinning lol

[coolkarl182]

@PingMast

Actually, after your loop maybe blocked, you'll just have to flat drive the ball because it has no spin.

[TheMightyHarihar]

YOur action to the point of impact and follow through is good, BUT your backswing is way to much. In a close quarter reaction situation you would not have enough time.

[amandec91]

nice vid mate

angled bat helped me

[franxis12547896]

thanks alot!!!! it helps me!!

[PreferabIe]

hey viszpi!! i have a question about your first loop. Is that forehand loop against topspin or a no spin ball. I keep seeing different versions of the forehand topspin loop. I am very confused. Please help! anyone

[98nfsmw98]

Good, but sometimes you needed to wait a split more second longer - but sometimes it was perfect. You need to bend your knees and twist more :D

[goptty]

m8 ur gr8!!

[BERSH100]

Very good tips thank you very much.

[firendable]

Did u join olympic games ?

[tutorials3216]

One tip when u do your loop you need to keep your legs bent

[narayannir]

its a good one dude

my hat is up to u

[OnLaTi]

You must bend your knees!!!!

[timobollalcbryce]

i can loop much better than him

[sexinthebathtubwith]

@timobollalcbryce That's nice.

[thegreatsze]

@timobollalcbryce cool thanks really useful info



[WIPPInc]

Am I the only one who saw that practicing ** was spelt wrong? lol Cool video, but do a little spellcheck!

[MrDude00zero]

You are mixing up your loops with smashing way to much and you will most likely never ever get those balls that you get in a real game so I'm sorry but I wouldn't recommend this guide if you want to learn it in the correct way.

[OpticKun]

when you serve, if it bounces in your opponents square twice, does that mean the serving person loses the point?

[zasaskent]

bead wroking legs more moving

[diegobandido2]

u r very very good ...i like it

[darkblue84]

great backhand technique....like it a lot, more than the forehand...

another short tip if you let me viszpi....when you hit with forehand, try to not lift your left arm 'cause it make you loose attack speed...if you already hit hard the ball, imagine the ball speed you can get if you join the left arm to the movement, keeping it low and following the hip swing...everything else i found it great...

greetings, keep uploading vids like this one, it's helpfull to us :)

[oldirty92]

nice tutorial i do a little stomp thing when i loop slam, idk it helps and when the balls high i jump and hit it lol idk why but yeah i like this vid

[Userz4fun]

wow you're incredible, i can do the forehand; i never knew there was a backhand loop, looks really hard with only a small bat surface area to hit - must try!!!!!!

[Krimnosha]

your english is so fkin bad =)))

[Nellisman]

Your style is totally wrong, the swing is waaaay too long. You should start the movement from the knee, not behind your back !! Position of the feet is key here, you should work on it too... Nice try, I'd say.

[888167]

@Nellisman well as long it works who cares?

[98nfsmw98]

@Nellisman No, when you loop you start the bat from just behind your upper calf.

[raginghades]

i am only 158 quite short do i need to bend knee?

[FireVortex720]

2:56 expertvillage dude

[raginghades]

u also loop with your body? i alway out or hit the net,i try it for week,it was hard

[jobjazel]

..+ men im focusing in the movements of the body.. because its my number 1 problem.. in my game i always encountered many players haved a skill in looping but when i watch this video its help me...men thanks for the demonstratiion..its help.. God bless u

[Lamborghini730]

Cool

[14Jazzjazz]

nice!i watch this video cause i already forgot how to loop.thanks to this video.it really helped me to recall the right position to loop.

[jkim519]

you should also mention that when looping against slices, you should get lower. you demonstrated it with your body, but you didn't really mention it so beginners might not really understand the concept behind lowering your back leg like you did. great tutorials btw

[sexinthebathtubwith]

I know you probably won't get this comment, or won't respond to it, but you are a great instructor, and should come out with your own DVD or something, without words, or needless backstory, you exemplify what players should do. Kudos :D

[Viszpi]

@sexinthebathtubwith

Thanks, I'm getting them, but I don't have to much time to write all time time :).

We tought about making a DVD for a really low price. Maybe in a year we are trying to making one, but there is a lot of things you have to dig around before it (good cameras, place, cut, afterwork, copyright rules, publishing, selling ,packaging, shipping etc...)

[seanath]

@Viszpi

I'm play TT only in my free time. And, I'm a regular visitor and watch your videos over and over.. each time i find something new to learn, even if it's the same video..

Good luck with your effort, hope you create something even better..

[Herrosivich]

@Viszpi Is it possible to smash thru any spin from your opponent? I seem to always hit the net when i loop against backspin..

[inheritancefen]

10 year 4-6 hour a day... man you play so hard for that level of play... you make me think teble tennis out there is a ultimate sport.. that no one can learn

[Viszpi]

@inheritancefen

Think about that, you have to start a sport at the age of 5-6, if you want to be in the top 12-18 years later, that's a lt, but nowdays this is what it takes to be in the best players in any sport...

[DaKrazedKyubizt]

@Viszpi or you have to be a ridiculously fast learner and a real genius in the best environment possible with a plethora of different people with different styles to play against.... but how could anyone come across a person like that?

[MerrIoI]

@DaKrazedKyubizt <---- is at the level of intelligence of a nigger.

[kunXV]

your bat (or racket) should be excellent for spin to do this right?

[Viszpi]

@kunXV

Not necessary at all... it can be done wih an average all+ off- blade + i.e cheap friendship rubbers, or a middle range DHS rubbers....

[kunXV]

@Viszpi

is the butterfly addoy series bats enough for this?

[shanedpc]

@Viszpi butterfly i think is the best personally 

[inheritancefen]

this is fast top spin with from outside to inside technique shot its not dificult

[62Denno]

ygf

[klibli]

Great vids, love your technique. Gonna try some of that stuff tonight. Wish me luck. Keep posting

[TheManinMoscow45]

@oknatubeko41 whatever u do no... There are two purposes for looping: against topspin and lifting against backspin. Against backspin, your rackethand should start out almost all the way extended but by your knee ,head down following the ball, and rotate up and finish above your head. Against topsin, same thing except finish with your racket in a "salute". On each you are barely even grazing the top or bottom of the ball.

[bassflyerhomie]

lol the spin is totaly wrong technic and u go down and up with your knees.

You have to do a short movement with an bent elbow next to your shoulder and then go to your head don't go behind your back for topspin and don't stretch your arm totally.

And you have to bent your knees and stay down, even if you topspin just stay down, don't come up.

With your backhand you have to get a shorter move aswell.

[Jasonsadventures]

Actually let me explain that a bit better, right now you aren't actively using your body, it's just following your arm, but they should both be involved in the stroke

[Jasonsadventures]

Hi mate, pretty good, but your body rotation is following your arm and happening after you hit the ball. So all your speed is coming from your arm, that's costing you spin and speed. See if you can only use your arm to generate the spin and only body rotation for the speed. You'll have to twist your body earlier than you are now but I think you'll get much more power. I'm not the worlds most expert but I've been looping 20 years and this makes the best loops for me

[52039116]

yes i did enjoy it :)

[Yat3511]

Thanks a lot for the video! Now I know that I have been doing it all wrong. This will really help my game a lot. :)

[khawajauncle]

nice 

[oknautubeko41]

do i have to hit the ball flat??

[oknautubeko41]

nice loop

[rscaruben]

You should stay low, don't come up, keep knees bent ;)

[Pheer1234]

hey nice vid u got there bro im only 13 and been playing for less than a year, probably about 8 months but i can do the loop pretty well. not as fast as urs of cuz. Hey i got a question, i been considering to buy either a sitga almana sound, a sriver or a yasaka mark v. so which rubber would u think would fit the loop the best?

btw i also can do a forehand drive pretty well. my current rubber is DHS PF4-1

plz answer the question. i would really appreciate it

[ColdTense]

Viszpi, what a great video!

Next time you could give some advices to the "less-experienced" players.

I already knew how to loop but I just did research on the web and found your video.

The only tip from me: Sit lower, this will get you a lot better.

Great technique though besides you could sit lower.

5/5 =D.

[despoticwalnut]

Very nice loops. I've watched a few of your videos and they are very well made and helpful to boot.

[markstrelik]

Viszpi this racket joola gx75 is good?

what racket do yu recomend?-:)

[rubixmaster85]

I see you like third ball attack ^_^

[TTStar7]

You´re good but it´s far away from olympic level i know players who are 14-15 years old and they´re maybe a bit better but you´re still very good !!

[cenkei]

Hi Viszpi. Please do some new video tutorial. Thank you. Keep it up man. :)

[PlAsMaWalk]

where is the difference to the topspin?

your ma lin video is very helpful

[MapleFreak1298]

amazing i wish i can play like that even though im a teenager. i enjoy table tennis very much and u are just great

[SeungRyu94]

You can practise it with the retournboard very good ^^

[neelneoutube]

Awesome training videos. I liked your service tutorial a lot. What rubber and blade do you use?

[Legitdupe]

I use tenergy 05 on forehand as well and I find it way too fast and quite hard to do counter topspins. It requires perfect touch to counter topspin with topspin. I just got my DHS Hurricane 3 and i'm going to try it on forehand. I'll let you know! :)

[PingMast]

the 1st loop usually i got no problem....but the second one after he block...is really hard...

[LightSpeed99999]

@PingMast

I had that problem. The way I solved it is after my first loop (which has lots of spin) I switch to a power loop or a drive instead.

[callofduty504]

but your backhand loop is pretty good

[callofduty504]

ya your technique for the loop isn't the best because your swing should not be behind your back but it should be down by your knees. still the amount of topsin that you apply isn't bad

[MrChutney]

Great hitting, but I think the forehand is more of a fast topspin shot than a loop- your arm is moving forward and not starting as low or ending as high as I would expect for a true loop shot.

Still, excellent topspin, you're obviously getting a lot on it :)

[zasaskent]

you not use the legs to much.

you must moved faster

[wojtaspk6969]

very good..It help me a lot.

btw. Where Do you train?

[GomuGomuBoy]

You have a bad con you must control better your left hand

[Viszpi]

I know I'm working on that, thx by the way ;)

[Early237]

Nice video viszpi i knew how to loop forehand but nver back hand now i know Thanks :)

[Bassmaarn92]

thank you for your vids, very usefull ;)

i've good a question, which size has got the room you're playing in?

[Viszpi]

I haven't measured :), approx 7 x 10 meters...

[DoctorPres]

lol at 2:45 i thought the mas who was blocking was timo boll omg they are similar left hand same face looking LOL

[Viszpi]

lol :)))

[ahilles228]

YOU IS FANTASTIC!!!

[OhDaesouu]

very nice technique! ;)

may i ask which league youre playing in?

[Viszpi]

thx.

I'm a 3rd leauge level player...

[JackIntheBK]

How far is that from olympic?

[Viszpi]

It's far :).

(at least 8-12 years allday practise. I've been playing table tennis only for couple of years...)

[JackIntheBK]

Wow.. Really? Your serve looks great and your backhand and forehand spin look great. Your control looks great also. What makes the difference beetween you and olympic players? Is league 1 close to olympic level?

[Viszpi]

That level of play needs almost perfect techniques and very good speed (fast dynamic movements). To play like that, you should play at least 10 years 4-6 hours every day training. With that all motion becomes natural to your body just like walking.

[Viszpi]

There are big differences in 1st leauges, too. A 1st leauge level of play can get you to the olympics. But as you see not much people go and win a game or even a set let's say about ranked above 3-400 at the world rankings... that would mean you should be in the top 10 in your country, and that is not easy... :))))

[JackIntheBK]

wow. I would love to play you to see where i stand. I'm just a recreational player, but i'm probabbly the top level of recreation, which probably isn't that good.

[GertoAnno09]

thats not tue i am14 and training 3 years every week 4 hours and i can better

[utahjai]

@Viszpi thanks, someone may think that you are exaggerated on about the time to learn the technique. I tell you, that is no exaggeration. I think you have to have good eye sight and good body, hand, wrist coordination too.

[killersolo5]

@Viszpi Not to hate or anything but i just got back from China and theres 5 year olds with better technique then this. You should go to China and see if u could practice at the pingpong school. They taught me a couple things i never heard of =0

[TheEminem4]

ma long 2

[kevinqew]

Great video explaining how to pick the back spin ball...

Been trying to find video in slow mo for days to get my technique right.. one of my friends mentioned a important point to bend ur elbow to get pace...

[fifiandbettas]

yehey!! you're my idol

[hoverskyx]

that a clear nice video.

and I am little curious about..

have you ever used the chinese rubbers?

I mean ...

like friendship729 . 狂飆3 etc..

what r u recommand for those rubbers?

[hoverskyx]

it's more cheaper... : )

[Viszpi]

thx for everyone ;).

[fareedmindalano]

ur welcome my friend! ^_^

[xXxTonkzxXx]

nice vid

[MrJoseee10]

great video vizpi..you are a great ping pong player!!

[Pfurz1]

thx again for sharing your skills! more videos pls :-)

[lobzdik]

I'm just curious, what bat do you use? rubbers n blade?

[Viszpi]

I've been palying with Tenergy 05 for almost a year now, but I changed my blade at the end of the season. Currently I'm testing the Kreanga Aeros blade...so far seems good for me....

[takkyuHero]

It's good your switching from Tricarbon to Kreanga Aeros. Glass Fiber lets you retain Carbon properties and adds more control to your shots.

[MrKevinliu]

dude you german coz i am chinese

[fareedmindalano]

viszpi if your offended about what i say  in my last coment about your _ _ _ _ _ im realy realy sorry men! peace? :(

[fareedmindalano]

sorry for that about your _ _ _ _ _ sorry men peace? :( peace men!

[JP1852KM]

[JP1852KM]

great videos keep it up!

[51573M4]

you're great table tennis opponent !

[gugiserman]

THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR DOING THIS VIDEO

you just saved me, thanksthanksthanks :)

[06474024136]

thx for the video btw whats the song =D

[TheAwesomeTrailers]

Evanescence - Everybody's Fool

[Crysplosion]

evanessence- everybody' s fool

[iEatYeIIowSnow]

i like the video as always,

but this time, your choice of music isnt that good in my opinion.

The song in your service video fitted just 100%!!

[Viszpi]

Unfortonatelly a lot of song is forbidden here at youtube, so I had to change th audio again just after I uploaded it... but I think it's still do it...

[iEatYeIIowSnow]

i agree, i had this problem too on one of my old videos which i removed because of that reason.

how about a video for footwork?

[BlackRoncer]

Nice !!

[greatwanz]

Your Vids are always great and useful

[ywexe]

@greatwanz i also faced that problem before, until i tried a mental solution. try honing the "incoming ball" menatality, which means that u meantally prepare for the next ball when u strike:)
