I find this diversified content more enjoyable - thanks Craig

[@awakening1347]

Hey Craig, Amazing videos as usual. Can you possibly make a video on transitioning from backhand to forehand and vice versa. Thanks

[@francodejj]

Thank you for an excellent master class on how to develop a sound backhand technique. On point with the bonus tips 👌🏾

[@niazvali2861]

Hello, very well prepared, with subtitles and sufficient explanation! Good luck.

[@C-handle-r]

I make a lot if mistakes with the backhand in service returns as well as during the rally. I tend to use my forehand (which is very strong) on the backhand a lot but at my current level I'm often not quick enough with the pivoting. I think this traingle tip is very useful. But my pitfall is that I usually hit the ball too late, almost at my belly button.

[@Vfbrjeix]

Lovely bonus tip in the end! Thanks and great work

[@syufrijal]

Amazing tutorial of backhand attack..very helpful

[@TheTableTennisServiceGuy]

Glad you think so!

[@andrebeskrowni9587]

I definitely have to use more follow through. If I keep my stroke that short it's almost always going to float long.

[@solideomusical]

It should not

[@ercanonge527]

i am playing this game on and off for years. first time i hear the difference between backhand drive and topspin 🤓👍

I really find this video soothingly informative, thanks sir. Can you inform us about your equipment? and will this affect you strokes, such as flared handle, or carbon, what type of rubber, how many layers of glue, any other tiny info sir will be beneficial for us to understand how to mimic your strokes and eventually your technique sir. thanks a lot, your fan from KSA - will be watching more sir.

[@TheTableTennisServiceGuy]

Hey 👋 My equipment can be found in the description of the video. The technique trumps the equipment, focus on the delivery 👌

[@electrichospital]

Great video. Does this apply to reverse penhold grip too

[@TheTableTennisServiceGuy]

You can absolutely apply these principles to a swivel wrist backhand, yes 👍

[@Adi0-e8v]

Craig I have a question, most coaches when talking about backhand topspin and forehand topspin say to use the forearm and wrist. Not once do you here them talking about swinging from the elbow? When the other coaches mean forearm and wrist do they also mean elbow included? And on your technique, is the elbow and forearm both involved or is only the elbow involved? It would be great if you could answer this for me since I have been struggling to go about structuring my technique. Thanks a ton! 🔥🔥🔥

[@TheTableTennisServiceGuy]

The elbow is the pivot point for the forearm to move. Without the elbow, the forearm cannot be involved. Some people will connect with ‘forearm’ others will connect with ‘elbow.’ Worth focusing on playing the shot from the elbow and seeing if you feel the shot is more effective for you.

[@Adi0-e8v]

@TheTableTennisServiceGuy thank you because I was moving the forearm without the elbow, does that hurt your backhand? I was playing awful skimmy backhand and I didn't know why

[@Adi0-e8v]

Can I show you a video of my technique on Instagram or do you charge for that

[@TheTableTennisServiceGuy]

Feedback on videos with a video response is a charged service that I offer, yes. You can send it through to me anyway and I can let you know if it’s looking good. If there are things to work on, then you can make a decision on where you want to go down the route of one of my coaching options.

[@mehrdadmaboudi1832]

My problem is that I can’t lock my arm and flying all the time

[@BadDog69]

The problem with practicing the right technique with a robot is the depth of the ball. In most games, very few backhand topspins land shallow and/or high, which are seen in the early portions of your video. Balls such as those are more easily punched back with a locked wrist and a short forward stroke. Some robots have difficulty in placing the topspin ball both low and close to the line, which is the type of ball that is normally received in a game. You do make note of many errors that are commonly seen, but you make no mention of too much grip pressure, which I think is the biggest enemy of backhand looping underspin balls but, then again, my knowledge is far below yours.

[@TheTableTennisServiceGuy]

Completely agree, there are limitations to a robot. However, the strength of them is really isolating a skill and perfecting technique. The majority of the video is around technique (excluding that last tip, which was relayed to depth). I think some of the advance robots can adjust length and speed within the same exercise but that is not the robot I have 😞 I didn’t mentioned grip pressure, it’s always very difficult to include everything in those videos. However, with regard to grip pressure within a rally, aiming for 70% is allows enough tension but also allows the wrist to flow too. I like to highlight this by squeezing (or asking a player to squeeze) the handle as hard as possible, then releasing a little. This makes the process a little more sensory for a player.

[@mmmmm35179]

Could you share why your channel isn't solely focused on the intricacies of serving and receiving serves? After all, serving is a key theme of your channel and your most popular videos are about this topic.

[@TheTableTennisServiceGuy]

Yes, sure. The majority of my content will be around service or aspects of the game that involve service (80% of the time) but 20% of the time I will post content on other areas of the game. It’s a chance for me to reach people that are interested in other areas of the game, whom I may not reach. I am a coach after all and although serving is my expertise, it’s also nice to break things up a little too. Rest assured that the majority of my content will be around service 👍

[@marcusannegarn8497]

​@@TheTableTennisServiceGuy It would be really interesting to see your ideas regarding service return and 3rd ball too! Your personal approach probably won't work for most beginners / intermediate such as myself but a serve is usually only as good as it's follow up I guess. Love to see these sorts of backhand videos too!

[@TheTableTennisServiceGuy]

Hoping to cover these topics in the next couple of videos

[@Vfbrjeix]

Why should he share anything about what videos he is posting? His channel and his direction. Have you employed him that he answerable to you? Instead you should have just politely requested him that you want more serve videos. Entitled you are.

[@jimmychen2516]

we should be grateful Craig is making other content. Last time I checked, the channel doesn’t need to follow any rules about what content it posts

[@xxx0ox0]

On that loop against back spin do you focus more on contact point, paddle face, or just dropping the paddle lower? Ive played with all 3 with most effect on changing to a more open face. My forehand is different though where i open slightly and hit the ball a little lower. Great tips!

[@TheTableTennisServiceGuy]

I’m just focusing more on the drop and the lift. However, so longs you’re making contact somewhere in the middle (sweet spot) you’ll have a decent connection 👍
