- Huge thanks to my good friend Taiwo for sharing his thoughts with me. I learned a lot and I hope you guys will too.
One more thing before you go! Make sure to comment "Butterfly sponsor me 🦋" and tag @BowmarSports in the comment section for me 🤪
Y'all be on the lookout, more coming soon 👀
ATTENTION! 👀
Please comment "Butterfly Sponsor NBTT 🦋" and tag @bowmarsports to help me reach my goal of becoming an official Butterfly-sponsored channel! 🏓
Butterfly everything!! 😂 Lmao
@@jacksontan1360 yessir! 🫡😤🦋
This makes so much sense! I like the way he said “right here the ball is coming in fast and you are reaching out to stop it”. I definitely needed to hear that 🙌🏻
Yes bro his delivery is so clear 🙏🏻 I also really liked that phrasing
Great content, please keep posting!
There's more coming soon! Make sure to subscribe so you don't miss it! 🫡🏓
Bro I want to come down there to play with you guys and get some coaching. This is like the best coaching I've ever seen
Pull up bro we'd love to have you 🙏🏻
@@Nathan_BriTT I just realized this club is not the one you have in your bio. Which one do you normally play at?
@@NoorKhanNY EC Sports is my home club. This video was filmed at AITTA 🙏🏻🏓
It's a pretty simple concept that anyone should know, but impossible to execute unless you have some serious training under your belt. Footwork is 70% of the game. If you are in position, you can almost certainly return any sort of balls if you are experienced. If your feet can't keep up, you are done.
Facts gotta start hitting that 🕺🏻
Good video. But Nittaku premium balls beat those butterfly balls.
😶😶😶🦋🏓
As Taiwo said in the vid: It depends ;)
I also second this comment.
Undoubtedly. You can see watching the inaugural season of MLTT a lot of the players were getting frustrated with whatever Butterfly ball they were forced to use
Taiwo explained this so well! Reonceptualizing your struggles with moving as struggles with stability makes so much sense. Can't wait to see more!
I know he truly helped me so much! My training has already improved 🏓
Nathan, you don't play better vs higher level players. It feels that way because a higher level player will give you a more consistent ball that makes more sense and has more power. That ball is easy to understand and easy to attack. A lower level player will give you a zero-quality ball that is dead and just floats in the air; that ball is much harder to attack because you must now generate all the energy yourself, you can't use the incoming energy as there is none. I was under the same false impression for a while, actually. The reality is - you're not playing better, you're playing exactly the same, it's just that the game is easier to play because it's closer to what you've practicsed.
Playing a faster, higher energy ball just masks issues in your game that prevent you from doing a proper stroke in a match.
Thanks for stopping by the channel, the comment helps so much! 😎🙏🏻🏓
This is soooo true!
This is amazing material. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for stopping by the channel! 🙏🏻🏓 It helps so much!
In China and where I am now, coaches always tell me”when you strike, always shift your centre of gravity to prepare a more controlled and powerful hit”, I guess that is why your feet is always more important
Totally agree with that 🙏🏻 Thanks for stopping by the channel! The comment really helps out 🙏🏻
That one fosho ☝🏾
Is the rating here official for WTT? Or the rating here is only for this place? I don't understanf. 😢
It's the official United States rating system 😎
WTT uses ranking points that are won through placing highly in/winning events, and that’s for world rankings. USATT also has rankings, but in this case he’s referring to skill rating, which can rise and fall based on who you win and lose against at sanctioned tournaments.
Work on finding your comfort contact point. Once you recognise where your contact point is, all you need to do is move your body until the ball lines up with where you're going to hit it. Then it's all about training your footwork to be able to hit the ball where you feel most comfortable during drills.
I'm on it 🫡 Thanks for stopping by the channel! 🏓🙏🏻
I honestly think the coach is oversimplifying things a bit. Sorry, but it's not that easy. He says the right things and to him we are all the same but every 100 you got another level to climb. I am sure you are aware of the book called "breaking 2000" by Alex Polyakov. It was one of the things that helped me break 2000 back in the day. Highly recommend
Thanks for the recommendation, I will check it out 👀 And thanks for stopping by the channel, helps a lot 🙏🏻
Someone wrote a book like that?? I’ll need to check it out once I get my level up
@@dylanchisolm2960 check it out now 👀👀👀
@@dylanchisolm2960 he actually wrote two: breaking 2000, and something like 2000 and beyond
That is why they say hit by the legs not your forearm. The legs and core is what generates movement and power. The forearm is just there to guide the ball back.
Totally agree, thanks so much for stopping by the channel! Helps a lot 🙏🏻🏓
WTF are those advertisements on the wall in chinese, immobilien and life insurance 🤣🤣🤣
Couldn't tell you, not my club 😅 I always notice that too tho 😂
no way the nittaku ball is way better than butterfly it floats way to much from my experience playing so many tournamets if you can spin you can if not then you cant it takes practice no matter the ball no excuses
😂😂😂 Ay bro thanks for stopping by the channel I like your energy 🙏🏻
As a Nigerian I am proud of taiwo. A very solid player
And an even more solid coach! You have much to be proud of 🙏🏻🏓
Ι never understood the obsession usa players have in all sports with ratings and grades. Just play to improve and enjoy the game.. results will come eventually. Dont restrict yourself and your mentality with stupid ratings and grades, your skillset is a dynamic phenomenon not a number. So monday you will play like 1600 and saturday like a 2000. What the hell does that even mean? you are the same person. Cheers, you earned urself a sub, great content indeed :D
Your rating will always reflect the stability of my game and not just the quality of your shots… literally what I’m dealing with rn!!!
Dude I know when he told me that I was 🤯🤯🤯
2000 is not some magical number, yet people talk about it as if it were like hitting the lottery. Everything this player said can be implemented without regard to ratings. Work on making quality shots more and more consistently. Done.
At 5:41, when he says you were standing at the middle and stretching your hand he is right and wrong at the same time. It is good to play with a stretched hand as it gives you more acceleration, but what he means to say is that your right leg needs to be under your elbow for support to guide the ball and maximize the power from your body.
🫡 thanks for stopping by the channel! 🏓🙏🏻
Nah he is correct because in this video, the main focus is stability and not power. The closer your forearm to the elbow the more stable your strokes will be. Stretching gives more speed and power but definitely less stability. If you do drills will a strecthed strokes, the ball will comes back to you faster thus you will be having a hard time recovering your positions. You wont be able to maintain the drills for long..
@@quetzalcoatl5961 thanks Quetzalcoatl, I totally agree with your disagreement 🫡🏓
@@quetzalcoatl5961 the idea in drills is to build habit, stretching you’re arm is not a bad habit because stability is developed from your legs. This is advice from former WR 18 Robert Gardos.
@@olfiru2336 You clearly missing the point that this coach is making in the video.. xD
Very interesting! Thx for the video!!! This is an important reminder for me.
Thanks for stopping by the channel, the comment really helps out 🙏🏻🏓
I like the videos man!
Hey I'm glad to hear that man 🙏🏻 Thanks for stopping by the channel, the comment really helps 🙏🏻
What does this translate into european ratings?
I'm not sure exactly, but our highest-rated players here are around 2800. Here, to be 2000 is considered advanced level.
@@Nathan_BriTT Ok, I live in Norway and our best players are 3300 TTR (playing in Germany)
@@z0uLess wow 3300 would be like Chinese National Team status here 😂
Here in France (pro A) best level would be 3800 (top 30 world)
@@Wole58that’s so interesting 😮
I think from 1600-2400 the game is the same, just the consistency, power and spin go up incrementally, but once you surpass 2500 or 2600 the game becomes more technical as small mistakes are punished a lot more. I think to get to 2400 there really isn't anything special that you need(many 2400s that I play or see playing have unconventional borderline bad technique). On the other hand, to get to a top level(2800+) your fundamentals need to be perfect and it requires some talent or a lot of motivation.
Thanks for the comment it helps the channel so much! 🏓🙏🏻
IMHO this is very very far from reality. There are many many many skill and knowledge levels between 1600 and 2400. I know many talented junior players who trained full time and never made it past 2200. Some never even made it to 2100 or even 2000... And then they quit and or switched sports.
