Snooker Cushion Shots Aiming With Sidespin Explained

[@dylanwang4290]

How can 6 people already dislike this video 6 hours after it came out?? Inexplicable. Fantastic video mate.

[@MrAndydavis78]

I believe there are some coaches out there who dislike him 'giving away' what they charge for. I agree it's great content and explained well. And to be fair, he's put a lot of effort in to how to shoot edit and produce to this level.

This video came at the exact right time for me. Definitely practicing this during the week.

[@plaguedoct0r]

Today went really well! Your tips worked magic!

[@Andrey_Math_and_English]

Thanks a lot for the useful tips🙏 although I don't have even a pool table, so let alone the snooker one, but I still really appreciate the effort you make and how deeply you analyse and show all the details, also doing that in less than 10 minutes! I'm really impressed with work you've done so far...

[@simonwood6008]

This video is brilliant. So well explained.

[@OhmegaWolf]

As someone transitioning from UK 8 Ball to playing snooker videos like these are so useful, was actually using some of your tips while practising today and managed to break into my first 20+ break in a practice fram which felt awesome!

[@alejandrocar6826]

Hi I am Alejandro from Montevideo, Uruguay!!! Great video! Thanks

[@brianbooth4435]

With all the knowledge you have of the game, and your obvious talent, why are you not on the tour? BTW, Love the channel and I try to be a better player from your very instructive videos.

[@wizaed]

Abi,no be cho cho cho, show workings

[@samyipsh5381]

thanks these are really good tips. i didnt know that cue ball rotation is inversely related to the amount of impact throw 😯

[@DanielSmith-br5lo]

This is so good I can’t even. Anyone who doesn’t know snooker is the most difficult sport on the planet is nuts

[@arielyaari2508]

Agreed. This game requires so much physics understanding

[@shynrou2]

I was never aware that top and back spin also reduce throw! Thanks :)

[@Breakfromlife]

It’s only a little bit, a half ball shot will just miss with stun if it is potted with topspin

[@ahmed4kp]

Hello sir, I'm a fan from Yemen, IBB. Keep up the good work 👏🏻

[@SohailFarman-kr2ns]

Brilliant work and teaching method is simple and still impressive 🙏 thank you mate. Appreciated

[@Aspthe1der]

Your vids have been so useful to my game. Do you do any sort of snooker coaching/tutoring. Feel like I'd learn so much off you in a couple of hours of play and Q&A!

[@kyliejm2]

Great video, as always. There’s an issue with the terminology around “gravity”, and reference to it “taking over”. Gravity is constant. The ball falling into the pocket, isn’t because gravity has magically acted upon the ball; it was always acting upon the ball. This is a misnomer used by snooker commentators, probably indicative of the amount of time they played snooker in their youth. Keep the great vids coming.

[@snerbsnerb2454]

With respect, everyone is very well aware that gravity is a constant force. The expression 'gravity takes over' just means that the ball is hanging around over the drop for a long enough time that gravity can act upon it and drag it down past the tipping point. If the ball is moving faster then it passes over the drop too briefly for gravity to pull it in. It seems an apt expression to me

[@tvs339]

Not at all. There are two forces at work here, gravity, and kinetic energy. Should the ball possess enough kinetic energy it will evade the clutches of gravity. Just as a spaceship in orbit around they planet has just enough speed to 'fight off' gravity's pull down (but not quite enough to escape it either).

[@oskarskalski2982]

​​@@tvs339 kinetic energy is not a force, it is ... energy, energy of motion to be precise. And object in orbit is not "fighting off" gravity by its high velocity (geneve that velocity is always in frame of reference - special relativity) is the other way around, by accelerating to high speed it escapes gravity on the surface of the earth enabling it to fly into orbit. The object in orbit still feels most of the earth's gravity but its in constant freefall without anything stopping it (this is Newtonian description) or if you want description from general relativity it traces a worldline or geodesic since its in freefall (worldline also includes time because GR uses 4-vectors).

[@tvs339]

@@oskarskalski2982 yes I meant factors not forces. There was a reason I put 'fighting off', not fighting off. A rocket doesn't accelerate to escape gravity just at the surface; gravity remains in space and at LEO an object travelling less than orbital velocity (~17,500mph) will be brought back down by the overwhelming effects of gravity. The analogy holds true for the snooker ball skirting the pocket (the edge of which mimics the gravity well of a celestial body). Too slow and it will drop. The force of Gravity outweighing the limits of the kinetic energy keeping the ball out. 'Gravity takes over'.

[@oskarskalski2982]

@@tvs339 Yeah, ok I hear you:). I'm very into physics for some time so maybe sometimes I'm a bit of a stickler. What I meant is that object in orbit has such velocity "naturally", there are no outside forces that act on it, hence it doesn't need to fight off anything (gravity is not a force). If you want it to move to the lower or higher orbit then you need to put energy into the system and decelerate it or accelerate if you want it on higher orbit. But I understand it was only analogy for ball falling into the pocket so tere is no need to make whole essay in orbital mechanics;).

[@Breakfromlife]

Yeah I never know what to do with the cue after I play a shot from that camera angle. If you just move it away like normal it looks like you’ve jumped up off the shot. So I’m wobbling it around wondering what to do probably

[@tomburns890]

Beautiful. Cheers

[@vervideos933]

What cue tip are You using right now?

[@stephenlancashire5284]

How much do you charge for 1-2-1 coaching sessions. Thanks.

[@hamidgholamiii]

Tnx

[@alienck3901]

Ones who actually play snooker will definitely know hitting it simultaneously is the worse thing to attempt a ball on cushion.. much easier with cushion first.. well said But what is very annoying when the ball is just slightly away from cushion.. it is much much harder

[@JonnyMack33]

cushion and ball at same time... running side... usually.

[@tvs339]

@7:45 you said that stun shots induce more throw, causing to over cut - showed 2x attempts, which showed the ball under cutting? Is this an error on your part or am I miss understanding?

[@osirisgolad]

The camera position for that cut-induced throw shot at 3:42 was a work of art.

7:35 Didn't you mean to say Stun shot will "undercut" a ball?

[@SimonCU]

why is your table have a lot of friction for the balls? In a prof table the cue ball can travel a lot more distance than your table. What make is your table? I think the prof use a different brand in the matches.

[@darktherapy]

Professional tables use a finer cloth and the table bed and balls are heated. This makes a huge difference.

[@Breakfromlife]

It’s just the thickness off the cloth will look to do something about it soon

[@elgatogaming4198]
