@drniroula You're welcome.

[warmachine6063]

hey ping skills can you tell me how to do the side spin serve please

[pingskills]

@warmachine6063 We sell a DVD Serving Secrets Revealed on our website where we cover the sidespin serve in detail. You can check out a few clips on our website to see if you think you would like it.

[kevintoti]

1:05 now that is some ping skillz

[pingskills]

@kevintoti Thanks!

[minicroat]

when you punch it reminds me of a flick .is a punch suppose to be like a flick?

[pingskills]

@minicroat No. A punch can be executed off a topspin ball. The flick is used against short balls that would bounce twice on the table. There are similarities between the punch and the flick off a short topspin ball though.

[spikeclux]

I know how to block these balls that you shown in the video. How do you block very high speed and monstrous spin close table ? My coach told me to block it very early and the wrist have to be super relax and to absorb most of the incoming speed and spin, but I have yet to find the right "feel" to block super spinny+speed close table. What can I do to find that right feel? Thanks.

[pingskills]

@spikeclux We cover some other options in our video on "How To Counter a Spinny Topspin". You can find it on our website. Take a look and let me know if this helps you out.

[spikeclux]

@pingskills Thank you. Do you have a video that deals with "fast and spinny topspin" ? Iike your videos

[pingskills]

@spikeclux Not specifically but the principles of this video also apply to fast and spinny topspins. If you want any more specific advice then try using the Ask the Coach section of our website. We can answer in more detail there as there is no restriction on the length of the comments.

[Develionsphere]

[12ryguy]

NO LIFE

[pingskills]

@12ryguy Perhaps? Or maybe this is something I am passionate about and love and have a great life? Either way I'm happy.

[mackexr]

@pingskills nice comeback!

[pingskills]

@mackexr Cheers!

[yobmas722]

@12ryguy you know...... what you commented on pingskills on them having no life you were wrong. first you have to take a look at yourself first. the person with no life is the person that sits in front of his computer all day with a bottle of lube and jacks off while putting hate comments..oh yeah by the way pingskills has a life. get a life instead of watching porn all day. you fucking slob.

Thanks for another nice instructive video. They are helping me to rectify my strokes. A couple of things I would like to confirm. (1) minimum use of wrist, and (2) the main movement is from elbow - the forearm, not from shoulder. To generate more punch in my return, I just have to bring the bat faster to the ball. Am I correct?

[pingskills]

@abed83a You are mostly correct.

(1) You don't need to use the wrist for a nice consistent block. However once you are comfortable with the stroke you can use the wrist to generate more speed and punch the ball. It is quite a natural extension of the stroke.

(2) Correct, you don't use the shoulder at all for this stroke. The speed comes from moving your forearm faster and adding in some wrist.

Try out the ask the coach section of our website. U can ask questions & look back over them.

[abed83a]

@pingskills Thanks! I will post my questions to the coach section. 

[nIgHtRaVeN0444]

this is a big help for me because i'm just a begginer, and i joined a competition where they just smashing the ball..!!! o.O with a lot of topspin....

[nIgHtRaVeN0444]

[youthbowler12]

The rhythm sounds like habenera from carmen

[napi1986]

it really make me mad. the ball always fly out the table

[MrAron1997]

those vids are awsome, thanks pingskills

[k44l00ng]

terrible legs...

[aleks9797]

how'd you block a heavy loop with backhand easily? apparantely you have to put the racket around 70 degrees but im still having problem against my friend who has very heavy loop on forehand... any help?

[NexxtGen]

move the bat down, creating a little backspin which loses the topspin more.

[Kariklarikall]

@aleks9797 he will not loop with heavy topspin if you are attacking

[Compantino]

@aleks9797 You're probably holding the racket too hard.

[guyduncan00]

I have that table XD

[iTubeYouX3]

1:05 - 1:15 I like the rythem

[Omar0239]

These videos have helped me a lot in improving my table tennis game. I've started beating people to whom i used to loose from big margins. Thanks PingSkills

[XxAcidusxX]

oh thats where artist get there beat from. lol

[UltimoImperio]

Imagine doing that all day LOL

[thayyatt]

Thanks for the lessons, very useful indeed!!

[Mayondor]

Hes left handed!! :d

[kingrider88]

thank for share !

[papajama24]

I have a suggestion for a new vid : Block with back spin - i heard that this is pretty hard stroke.

[BennyJ69]

Quite easy stroke xD. Aha joking. Just gotta get used to it.

[VaultedK]

Thanks for all these vids for a some one who just plays tabble tennis casually this is a big help. I was struggling to defend hard hit towards my back hand.

[nhantrivinh]

especially when my opponent did a topspin

[nhantrivinh]

I have try that but, everytime I hit it, it just bounce down and into the net

[acousticdante24]

this video really helped me!! thanks a lot pingskills

[strongsvilleboy]

great video thanks i will try this

[TheGamerLord1]

nice guys

[contraloop]

video is good explained but this is an active block and not a passive or defense block ball is blocked better immediately after impact on the table here it is too high

[PingMast]

wat if the topspin is low??when block...it will hit the net...the video's topspin is high

[yepper078]

I always hit the net if I block against topspin??

[yuvalyogi1]

your bat is too closed.

you need to mesure the amount of spin and than open/close your bat

[pingskills]

Thanks yuvalyogi1. That is excellent advice for yepper078.

[yepper078]

Thanks, that is I think the cause.

[iMin2gas]

Your videos is great

[johnny89atc]

thank you for your videos!!

[cruisemissilesrock]

anybody live in manchester england and fancy a match?

[drthmstrbtr]

pretty sure you can find an opponent

no matter where u live

just go to any rec center or skool

[the3hol]

I disagrea if you live in a rurla area your school might not have ping pong and a rec center might not be for 30 miles (like me)

[AnlamK]

Wohooooo Ping Skills!

[powpanda]

Thx!

[xcmedinA]

Thats great. Ive actually found this to be very helpful for my style of playing by playing somewhat defensively and then returning with a hard topspin smash when the chance is given. but heres a question for you guys. now how would i hold the bat considering my oponent is putting a relatively strong back or side spin. for the back hold my bat more open right? and then for the side point my bat to the opposite direction of the spin? Thanks for your help

[ixixyixix]

Yup, you are totally right. :)

[xcmedinA]

ahh thanks ;]

[ixixyixix]

Once again! Great video guys! I think you have the best table tennis coaching leassons on youtube. Keep up the good work!

[mathlete1337]
