Upgrade Your Forehand Flip With These 4 Variations Plus Base Technique

[@signatured_]

Do you perform the forehand flip differently depending on whether the ball has underspin or topspin?

[@PechPongTT]

Great question, yes your racket will be more closed and your stroke more forward and contact will be made more on the back of the ball and less underneath.

[@warrensha]

Your instructional videos are one of the best. You are doing a great job in your tutorials.

[@PechPongTT]

I appreciate that!

[@SirTulaman]

Your content is some of the best on YT for TT. Thanks for the good work and keep them coming!

[@PechPongTT]

Thank you! I try my best to put the best info into each video I’m glad you find it interesting

[@gerokatseros]

I love your tutorials, they are so detailed and well explained!! thank you thank you

[@PechPongTT]

Thank you! Im glad you find them understandable

[@Unpiloted0922]

Awesome video, like always! Your channel is criminally underviewed but the content quality will eventually speak for itself as more and more people find out. If I had to make a request, any chance for a video focusing on counterloops in the future? I would love that

[@PechPongTT]

That’s a great topic I will make sure to dedicate a video to that. Thanks for the support hopefully my videos will get more views I’ll keep working at it :)

[@phamster18]

seth !! dude.. you are really living the dream.. your teaching and skills and video quality are very high... i know because we played a teams event together ! with Dave Stout back in the day... CT Pham here watching you teach ! keep living your dream... don't stop.. life is too short to not do what you want... and TT is your destiny ...

[@PechPongTT]

Hey man! Thanks yeah I remember when we played on a team! I love making the videos and sharing my knowledge it’s been an amazing experience, and talking/meeting with people who enjoy my videos has been a huge addition to my table tennis experience. More stuff to come thanks for the encouragement!

You're such a good teacher Seth. Thank you for producing these gems. I'm a mostly self taught player watching pros online... Your videos break down the skills that make pros so effective.

[@PechPongTT]

Thank you! I make the videos for you and people like you I wish I had this information I give when I was growing up! It would have helped a lot!

[@KrazyKanucker]

I switched from h3 orange prov with high throw to a low throw skyline 3 blue sponge and did some basic shots like this yesterday with ease for the first time. I'll start trying these variations. Loving the skyline 3. Thank you for the lessons.

Thanks a ton Seth!! Forehand flick is one of my weaknesses and this video is very informative. I had also requested you previously to make a video on this after you had posted the video on backhand flick. So thanks a ton again😊💙💙👍👍

[@isxp]

Wow, beautiful video. Editing, annototations, audio, and of course explanation were top tier. The new additions make watching an easy experience. On the next technique video, if you think it would fit, consider adding a portion where you recommend a drill (or two) to practice the technique and short clip of you doing it. The Hugo clip was a smart choice in the video. I am excited to try it out at my next practice!

[@PechPongTT]

thank you! thats a great suggestion I do that in some of my videos but maybe making it a standard will help players be proactive about practicing it

[@lusioespo52]

thanks coach, I really liked the description of the various techniques. I would add a detail in the execution of all the various types of flick, the rotation of the right hip which helps the body to move forward at the moment of contact.

[@PechPongTT]

Thank you! Yes that’s a good point you make!

[@THESUPERRONALD]

Another great video! I also really like the short fragments of the pro players doing what you describe. Do you believe that with penholder grip, you could give more spin on the hook variation? Don't know how tricky it will be for me (as a penholder), but will definitely try all these variations out. Thanks for the video and keep up the great work!

[@PechPongTT]

Thank you! I like showing the pros do the stuff to it helps, yeah it may be better with the penhold you would have to try it and find out! Good luck hope your flips improve.

[@klajd14]

All the contents you do are so valuable for beginner/amateurs(me) to improve their technique and also learn the theory in the right way. Thank you for the dedication and effort you put into this, great teacher! I wish you 100k subs soon :D

[@dzozepe]

This is great video as I mentioned earlier on your other vid when you explained that you use the spin and it open my mind to this technique.But do you have experience on short pips? Maybe with this technique but also with backhand? I am really trying to better my technique wiht Rákza PO on backhand, Thank you for advice

[@thetruth4654]

PechPong would you try to use a forhand flip against a serve that is short but has a lot of sidespin and backspin? or a long serve that would target one of the edges of the table, but the fast would come very quickly? i don`t think a passive block achives what i want against those types of serves

[@tattedtabletennisplayer]

@@PechPongTT i have an timo boll spirit black tag(old), what is your opinion about this blade?

[@zivking123]

Hey Seth great vid :) One thing that is missing for me is what do you again half long serves? Can you still forehand flip those effectively (like with the backhand/banana flick?)

[@PechPongTT]

Hey yeah you can flip them it is an option I would try to use forehand loop and really work on being as aggressive on those as possible it’s a huge payoff if you can loop with strength however if you just roll the ball up it will be easy for your opponent so then you could try to flip if you don’t feel comfortable looping but long term I would loop and hey maybe your forehand flip is so good it becomes your thing.

[@hq5561]

Great content! Thank you very much! Can you make a video about receiving serve: side, side under, side top, reverse pendulum serve … many ppl has prob with receiving reverse pendulum and the fast long side spin serve from penhold player

yes it is very awkward thats for sure, hopefully you will have more success after applying some of the concepts :) thanks!

[@garyfagan6431]

Saw a recent video of Speedy Pech on Samson Dubina feed. Could you have him do some demonstrations on your website? He has nice, compact and powerful shots. He would be a great addition to your videos.

[@PechPongTT]

Thats a great idea, he is an amazing player also very knowledgeable about the game.

[@theimprovementlab]

These are three topics I would be interested in learning more about how to transfer your weight effectively so that you use more lower body and less arms? how to return sidespin serve to the back hand? How do you select rubber for your paddle?

[@PechPongTT]

Those are good topics, I did one video on how to improve power in your shots maybe look through my library and you can find that video which shows how to properly transfer the weight. I also did a serve return video and it shows how to return side spins to backhand. I have not done a rubber one yet so I’ll look into that

Hi Seth! Since you have like almost 3 month in between your last two instructive technique videos ... Could you consider to load up a training drill video here and there in between? You have quite nice ammount of views on these, too. If you covered already everything you can imagine of, then I apologize for asking for something kind of stupid :D

[@PechPongTT]

Hey yeah those would be fun to make again, I honestly have been swamped with work so the video making has been hard to do consistently but I’m determined to keep them coming, I’ll keep that In mind

[@janosch7210]

For me the 'dead flip' is just something you use, when you cant really use something different anymore. Its like a lastminute alternative. I mean, if i receive side-under serves i can either flip it 'chiquita style' offensively and trying to start dictating the rally, which i do when im pretty sure where the ball will land or what spin it has. Or, in the other case, i try to push it with some kind of aggresive push/ ghost push where i take the ball very early with a lot of backspin, usually i return it straigh down the middle to have the most effect. His ball is way harder for most opponents to deal with, than just a 'dead forhand flip' where they already know, what spin is on the ball. Overall i just dont see the strategical benefit of the dead forhand flip. Yeah, you can return a ball to them and give them back the initiative, but its tabletennis. A sport mostly about being aggresive in the right moment. So why not trying to find the right moment to go for it instead of waiting for your opponent? This line of thought led me to much more points in total, than just waiting for my opponent to do a move, then relying on any kind of counter move!

[@PechPongTT]

Good thoughts! A player who used the dead flip very effectively was samsonov who wanted his opponent to counter with speed so he could redirect the ball.

[@danielchao6041]

I've been using it for almost a year now on my forehand (2.1mm sponge thickness) and I can't complain. I use an allround blade and even if I hit very hard, it never bottoms out, however, I'm an amateur player and I haven't tried many rubbers so I can't compare :))
