A tutorial that teaches the stationary stick passing series (Billy Pappas style). This a more advanced type of passing series. Stick passes can be done from any different ways, but here I show how they are done where the ball is placed in front of the 5 bar. I recommend starting with the near wall brushing series, before doing this type of series.

Enjoy,

  • @zekefooser i was woundering if the ball you are using is a "special" model or something.. It doesnt look like its made of plastic, like the ones i usually use.. Great Tutorial by the way :)

  • @FupNinetyFour The model of the table is a Tornado T-3000. The ball I'm using is a Tornado ball, which is specifically made for that table. It's not like one of those balls that comes with cheapy foosball tables that are plastic and lopsided. The tornado ball can make a cheapy table play much better because it will allow for more control. Buy one on the net, they are about $3.

  • @zekefooser how much does the table cost?

  • @RockingBeast13 This particular table is about $1400. There are other models that are less expensive. Fireball is another good table.

  • Nice tutorial mate! :D just wondering... does this take years and years of practise? or can u get the hang of it in a couple of months? :) thanks great vid mate!

  • @Cod123Lord I think in order to master any passing series (or shot), it's going to take a couple years of good practice, and tournament play. It also depends on the player's skill level. A beginner will take a few years to learn the mechanics. But it will take longer to develop speed and power. Once the mechanics are learned, the next challenge is learning to read an opponent's defense. That will take even longer.

  • Btw.. off the back wall pass isn't just great for singles. I do that pass often in doubles and in order for the goalie to trap with his 2 bar, he would need to bail completely out of goal in most cases. I'd say 98% of the time when I perform that pass in doubles the goalie never touches it. People also don't expect it, so it's become a normal pass in my series. Even though players know I do it, it's still extremely tough to trap when performed quickly.

  • This is a great tutorial by Zeke. For all foosers trying learn this pass, the starting position of the ball is very important to this style of pass. Also, there are many other options, when doing this pass. Such as varying your speed, chipping up to the middle, chipping to the wall, brushing to the wall, etc...your imagination is your only limit. But, as for me, I am a firm believer that you also need to know the brush series and tic-tac series.

  • @fifafoos123 When I do the lane stick pass, when I hit the ball forward, it comes off the table and deadens on the receiving man. If it doesn't, then you must practice catching the rebound off the receiving man. Catching the rebound requires a lot of practice, but it can be done. I do it and have seen many others do it who use this pass.

  • @UserIDofDoom good option, just practice it, especially the catch

  • @TommyEinstein I am not Zeke, but when I pass the ball using the lane stick pass, when I hit the ball, it comes off the table going forward and sticks under the catching man. Of course this is on the tornado table.

  • i dont underrstand how the ball slowed down after u passed it so hardly... im just an amatuer, but i understand the concept where u tilt the receiver a little to slow the ball down. problem is , i do not know why, even when i passed it at a moderate speed, it always runs off the receiver's foot after bouncing too hardly and gives it to the opponent

  • I like the sound of the table... on german P4P-tables they have now very soft balls... very sticky and no sound at all. btw: you missed one pass... the one there the ball is pushed against the wall and been passed on the way back from it.
