This is the best explanation of the forehand loop on YT. Period. I'd just add, moving body balance from right to left foot (righthander) during the follow through is important too.

Good video, Brian. My favorite part was when you showed yourself in side-view doing a loop in slow motion. This allowed me to more easily see your racket angle, contact point on the ball, and angle of arm motion. The forehand loop is what I've recently been trying to improve, so I'm hoping I can take what you've said in this video and put it into practice!

I'm a tennis player, who was looking to review some modern forehand stroke mechanics. I just stumbled on your Forehand Loop Instruction video. Before seeing your video, I would not have imagined, that table tennis stroke mechanics, could be this elaborate. Your talent to play is equally matched with your ability to instruct. Great video! For me, the takeaway is that both the table tennis forehand and the tennis forehand, share the same stroke mechanics principally. I can see this experience helping me with my game. - Thanks

Bertan Atac I always found that you could recognise a tennis player that started table tennis late. Firstly their footwork was very different, body position more upright, and stroke less fluid (possibly because of hitting a heavier ball with a heavier bat), different follow through too.

Hi Brian, I've read most of the comments and I'm also someone who love table tennis a lot. What you are doing here most of us appreciate and we want to get better so thank you. I can't help but be in absolute disgust, at the clear racist derogatory remarks made by some disrespectful viewers. Who cares if he isn't top ten in the world, the thing is he has enough credentials and competed at a level above many of us have. He's sharing actual good old sound advice, but yet the haters are on here trying to pick apart everything, in the end even if he was ranked world number 1. It's obvious their only hate is that he's good but because he's "BLACK" what he has to say shouldn't be credible! Now he is on here having to defend himself for not being Chinese or Asian. None of his tireless well illustrated and executed examples are valid it seems. Let's focus on him celebrating after winning a game point, oh he's bragging some have said! That's utter bull shhhhh***t. Why so much HATE?

I'm impressed by your footwork, which is the most fundamental to higher level players. The only thing I would add is that at the end of the forehand loop motion, your body should have a slight momentum to lean forward instead of going from right to left. This will increase the spin and speed of your loop.

Hi Brian, The instructional video is just unbelievable ..Many thanks. . I have 4 questions and i hope you can answer them. 1) Could you please explain the point of footwork containing foot placement and foot speed a little in details? How do you exactly line up the anchor food with the coming ball? Which angle and how far is the ball from the body or the the anchor foot? i mean if you look at 6:48 the ball seems to be far away from the body and the line you put between the ball and the anchor foot is sometimes like this and sometimes its more vertical (ball ist closer to the body) It's a little confusing and i think it's an important point. 2) What do you mean by foot speed? 3) In your backswing, how far or close is the elbow from the body? do you keep it close or do you take the elbow and the racket a bit to the back? how does this affect the power transfer and the accuracy of the shot? 4) Stroke Prodution: You said the angle in the elbow needs to be close to 90 degree as possible. At 6:48 and in many other shots it seems like the arm is streched out to 180° when the ball contacts the table ..How do explain this? I woud appreciate your answers and i'm sure they will help others as well.
@hartleytaslim39579 жыл бұрын
Thank you Coach Brian for the video. Now, I snap my arm (I used to keep it bent, but not really giving it a snap), now I have more spin and speed in my forehand loop. I am using my right leg, and knee to thrust looping the under spin ball.. I used to loop under spin and ended up dropped to the net because I was using only my upper arm and upper body.. The leg thrust, gives more power also during counter loop... Thank you, and I will watch more...

В своё время олимпийский чемпион по дзюдо из Японии(до1980г.,фамилию не помню) говорил:"я знаю только один приём и сто подходов к нему". Здесь темнокожий теннисист,похоже,полностью соответствует этим словам:весь розыгрыш мяча,начиная от незамысловатой подачи,сводит под четко поставленный топспин.При этом у него очень"быстрые ноги",без которых далеко не продвинешся.Отличный ролик!Лайк!P.S.сам-любитель,играл в студенческие годы(80-е).Сейчас,когда играю,ловлю себя на ощущении,что мои ноги забетонированы, из-за этого проигрываю более слабым по игре,но более подвижным соперникам.Надо"делать ноги"!

this is really an amazing video with high value learning, but after watching several times and using this technique, I realized Brian actually does NOT contact the ball at the peak of of it 's bounce, most pro players don't either, and the shot is most effective if you let the ball drop to about net height, or if you have Brian's power, even a bit lower. I think his other points are absolutely essential - preparation, body position, footwork, and starting with the straight elbow......... these changes really changed a lot for me

I played against someone who would loop at anything I threw at him. I had to rely on my wit and deception to keep him from scoring lol. I found the best way against loopers is either a short heavy back spin, or a fast mover aimed at his elbow (when he's close to the table.)
