Hey Tom! I just want to tell you how much I love your super duper helpful videos! Especially with Craig Bryant.

You give multiple real time shots, slow mo shots, and great explanations in your videos! So thank you so much!

Great serving tutorial, however need lot's of practise to execute to anywhere near Craig's level for same. He is probably one of the best servers in our game. Fantastic to learn from him.

[@TomLodziak]

Agreed. You will need to practise a lot. But if you put the hard work in, then you can really move up 1, 2 or 3 levels.

[@briandrake9]

He is standing in very much the same spot. From my experience (a low rated player who can enjoys putting fear in the hearts of higher rated players), changing the position right before a serve and then serving from various lengths away from the table and angles messes with club players who have been trained to expect the standard, close to the table serves, from what I have experienced. The pro trainer makes these serves look easy but it takes years and years of serving practice to get where he is. Great tips, though. The slow motion is helpful because he gets so much action with quick movements that are hard to see in real time. Thank you for video, Tom! @@TomLodziak

[@rickr2029]

@@briandrake9 The Slow motion isn't even slow enough. I get that he wants to show his frontal view for the perspective of the opponent. The problem is there is NOT enough closeup of the paddle's contact point to be able to figure out what is going on. Sooooooooo, I guess I need to revamp the way I hold the paddle and learn the open palm legal.table tennis serve to be able to absorb this. Admittedly, it does seem the way to go and could change up.my entire ping pong philosophy mannerisms.

The point of these serves isn't how can you beat that pro you can't score a point on, its how a decent casual player can gain an edge on another decent casual player. When great players play they dont do serves anything like these cause theyre all so easily counterable. The great players do really slow serves with lots of spin

[@jptl444]

I had learned the ghost serve by watching your videos, thanks for that🙏

[@richardj6593]

Craig, I have finally mastered the kicker serve. I have something that you might want to try. You approach the serve from under the ball when you flick your wrist for topspin. I found that if you start your racket high and under you armpit and descend down to the ball to flick your wrist up just as it passes the ball at table level, it makes it look even more like backspin and makes it almost impossible to read. Let me know if you give it a try and thanks for this serve! I am developing the same serve from the backhand side as well . You can create it by doing the same thing you do with the forehand but face the table straight on when you move your paddle from right to left and down into the ball as you flick the wrist up. Have you tried this way yet?

[@craigyb22]

Richard J Hi Richard, A good observation and you’re right that you may well be able to get more kick / topspin. The issue with doing it that way, is that you lose the possibility of creating backspin. So by starting below the ball, you can only go upwards and then you give your opponent a real opportunity to take advantage of the serve. So that’s why I try to stay behind the ball, so that I can create some doubt between backspin and topspin. What you’ve done is great though, so much of serving is experimenting with what might work and what things could work for you and your game. Keep experimenting and good luck with your serves. 👍

[@TomLodziak]

Ha! Yes. I have a had a few requests. I will try and post a video next month on how to return these serves.

[@90blackboy90]

It's actually not that hard. Most important thing is you need to practice reading serves and don't make the same mistake another time;) so may you miss the kicker, but then you know it's topspin so you could just counter, loop or block that serve the next time. Fast down the line, just position yourself more to the middle and be fast. Wide sidespin serve, I'd return it with my forehand. It's much easier than with the backhand even it's on your backhand side. Ghost serve, seems to be a bit tricky, don't wait for the ball coming towards you, try to hit the ball much earlier than you are used to.

Zazen forever Good ears, it’s Rhyzm P 50 degrees. However, entirely possible to execute this different rubber and blade combinations.
