+Nole Nole Hello from Australia. Congratulations on your results. Keep working hard and I'm sure you'll get even better.

[@x.x.7646]

Thanks Alois. I find it allways helpful for me to be reminded of the basics. And the mnemonic facing the ball with your chest is simply brillant.

[@pingskills]

You're welcome. I'm glad it helped you.

[@daminibhan]

This was a very helpful video as I definitely have been through the wiggle. From all your videos (especially this one) I'm learning something or improving my skills. For anyone playing Table Tennis you are the number 1 channel to watch. Thanks a lot!

[@ranveersinghbhadauriya5608]

Thank you coach... The video was so much informative and i surely learnt many new things...

[@teddanville6996]

WOW, i watched all your playlist and finally found out that if you follow the ball with your chest it would be easier. Thanks

[@pingskills]

You're welcome. Make sure to check out the PingSkills website too :)

[@grahammackenzie8778]

Wow - excellent video. I can’t believe I’d never head the chest facing the ball idea, that is such a simple but game-changing strategy. Thank you for sharing your knowledge!!

[@pingskills]

You're welcome. I'm glad you found it useful. Good luck with your table tennis.

[@drewlawrence696]

Another excellent video from Alois & Jeff. I'm returning to the game after a lengthy absence and just about to join a 'club', these videos have been inspirational :)

[@pingskills]

Welcome back to the game :)

[@morhpeus1]

Thanks Alois. Question: you mentioned in this video that one should always 'follow the ball, in and out'. I thought that the moment after you hit the ball, you should shift your attention (away from the ball) to watch your opponent instead (and then, to resume following the ball from the moment your opponent hits it). Is this approach incorrect?

[@vivekanandsahoo4683]

Ur videos are just amazing it helps me to improve my weak points...... thanku

My coach said play the ball on the top corner of the triangle.. and now i got it: face with your chest 😀 thanks a lot for simplifying these wierd terms:)

[@pingskills]

You're welcome.

[@mayankgupta2543]

the last part in the video was great, where u showed first person view, i wish if we could see more of these videos where different shots are showed in first camera view would be of great help and much clearer to understand as to when to hit the ball, whats the contact point on racket, and how much racket should bent or closed and which direction racket should face.... please upload videos in this way, would be of great help as i am still confused about the questions i have mentioned.

[@pingskills]

I'm glad you liked those shots. We'll try and incorporate more of them in our upcoming videos.

Well done. That is a great effort!

[@gelgsantos]

Nice vid :D helps me alot... Can you make a video for some stretchings before playing table tennis

[@SK-qu4wo]

I'm primarily a tennis player but recently took up table tennis and I'm really loving it. I do have a bad habit that I am trying to break myself of and it has to do with my tennis instinct of taking the racket head upwards on power shots as opposed to letting it drop to knee level and then coming up on the ball. Growing up playing tennis we were always taught to hit through the ball, rotate the body and then flick the wrist on contact to create spin. In table tennis however, it appears that spin is vitally important to keeping the ball in play and the only way to hit the correct shot is to start at knee level and finish at head level. Is there a drill for tennis players like myself who are trying to make that transition to table tennis?

[@pingskills]

Great to see you enjoying learning more about table tennis. It sounds like you've got a good understanding of the strokes. I think a good way to practice this is via shadow play, or shadow swings. Here's a video about the topic - kzbin.info/www/bejne/iaurYqqef5qAapY Let me know if that helps. Good luck!

[@MusicIsAlive01]

Great way to film it at the end there, thanks.

[@qariskosim-satyaputra4053]

Could we have a longer version of the POV videos? maybe with each different techniques and shots and how it would look like in first person all together in 1 long video. I think it would look pretty cool and help a lot!

[@pingskills]

+A Smith Thanks for the suggestion. Do you mean the very last clip we shot with the GoPro on our chest that wasn't very stable, or the one before just with the camera close up?

[@qariskosim-satyaputra4053]

+PingSkills yep the GoPro shot, I think it's really helpful to see how an experienced player hit shots from this perspective. I wish the older videos had them too! I'd love to see some sort of compilation of all the different shots from this perspective if that's possible :)

[@pingskills]

+A Smith Cool. We'll add it to our list. I thought that people might find it a bit unsettling because the camera is not very still.

[@qariskosim-satyaputra4053]

+PingSkills It is probably way better than any other POV ping pong shots that are available on youtube right now! but I think that the higher frame rate definitely helps a lot in this regard.

[@pingskills]

+A Smith Thanks for the feedback :)

[@Mr.Mooody]

what type of ball you are using? what do you recommend to someone who is been playing for 6 months?

[@pingskills]

The 3 star balls are the best. It has been a bit of a strange time for table tennis balls with the transition from celluloid to plastic. You can see a lot of comments about the balls in this blog post - www.pingskills.com/table-tennis-forum/new-ball-just-say-no-a-petition-is-now-online/ Good luck with your table tennis.

One tip is to try and focus on the label of the ball.

[@desert1987]

thanks man :-)

[@pingskills]

+thepoisonpotatoe You're welcome.

[@ParampreetNagi]

Isn't ball watching a bad habit ? Shouldn't we keep our eyes on opponent first to read his hand and direction of shot before focussing on the ball ? While serving : Ball first >>>> after contact >>>> Opponent >>>> after contact >>>> ball Please let me know if my understanding is incorrect.

[@pingskills]

No, focus on the ball the whole time and focus on it as closely as you can! Over time you will get better at tracking what your opponent is doing through your peripheral vision. The game is too fast to be switching back and forth between the ball and the opponent. Good luck with your table tennis!

Hi I am 13 years old. I am simple table tennis player. I can't do forehand topspin continuously, by the time I loose control in my legs and I loose concentration and I just hit the ball somewhere.I am unsatisfied with my playing please help me.

[@pingskills]

Hi Deekshik, it takes time to develop your forehand topspin. I suggest making sure you watch our forehand topspin video and concentrate on the start and finish position. Then in training work on your consistency. Try and get 5 on in a row, and then build up to 10, 20, 50 and 100. This will help you get the stroke correct and consistent so you can play it more confidently in matches. Good luck!

I thought “ball staring” is a bad thing?!

[@pingskills]

No, watch it as closely as you can!

[@Romping227]

Predicting the ball's trajectory and practicing the skills till it becomes instinct is probably the best way. Thats why you should refrain from using these chest tricks, a low ball isn't going to come towards your chest at all. Thinking about the ball won't do either, you don't have time to think about the trajectory and such in a fast paced game. Also attacking faster than you can defend is a bad choice. Balance is required or in other words intelligent playing. If you are focused on hitting the ball as fast as possible then your accuracy and defense is most likely weakened. You don't have to blow the paddle out of his hand to win the point.
