Yeah! Tom is back! That is great! I hope to see you more often. ;-) I love your videos. Thanks a lot to Ferenc. I will try these tipps as soon as possible. ;-)
The back hand flick are wicked and accurate..wish i had see these tutorial when i was playing now im too old with shoulder problem which really limited my movement..Anyway its a good video and i really loved it..Keep making these awesome videos..
Thanks a lot for sharing coaching this video. It means a lot, since I have master in forehand top spin or forehand smash...but I still learning how to do backhand flick, and still got difficulties in doing it 😂
I can't quite understand that so few people have seen this video, nor that there are only 214 likes at the time of reading this ... I consider a masterful piece this video, as like all of this channel
Glad to have you back. Great video. I've been working on my flick - great timing for this video. Playing in 1st tournament since Covid shutdown on June 7. I figure I'm as ready as anyone else.
My top favorite shot that makes me feel great when executed successfully is the backhand flick when returning a serve. I usually win 95% of the points.
Yes, I agree. At the amateur level, the flick doesn't have to be spectacular. Just contact the ball early, with a positive flick and the opponent is already under pressure.
This is a very good video. A general feeling I have when watching tutorials is that the instructors can be too skilled - you only see perfectly played shots. This can make it harder for novice and intermediate players as it can be hard to know what can go more or less wrong. Tom is good, but not as smooth as Ferenc - it would be interesting to see Tom return heavy or light backspin serves from Ferenc using backhand flicks.
Tom this is one of your best videos, thank u so much. The backhand flick is a shot I love and I'm getting better and better at it with practise. One of the shots I struggle with is the backhand loop and I'm wondering if the back hand flick could be used as an alternative to that shot ie used against longer balls as well as short ones. What do you think?
Potentially, yes. You can keep the bat angle the same, the type of contact the same and the upwards movement the same. But you will probably need to start with your bat a bit lower and finish a bit higher. If it helps you to attack the long backspin balls - and it consistently works - then why not?
Table tennis elbow (or tennis elbow) can take many months to heal. You usually have to stop playing for a while to allow the tendons or muscles to repair. My best advice is go and see a physio, so you can be assessed properly. Good luck.
@@TomLodziak I got tennis elbow from an only shot made with a very bad backhand tecnhique (which I don't use anymore and I advice my students not to use). It comes and goes from time to time. But I never stop playing. When I feel it's coming, I train and coach with my left hand, wich is very useful for a coach for many reasons.
i love your vedio but i dont get some player grab there racket in red defence and black attack but my brother who is zonal level player told me to hold It black for defence and red attack. can you tell me why?
It has been very disrupted in the UK also. We have been able to play in clubs for three weeks now. Hopefully clubs will stay open now. Fingers crossed!
@@rudylion1469 no mate,I used to go my school to play tt or to the club that I have near my house with my colleagues,sadly they both are closed due to the pandemic..
The technique in this video is very outdated imo, very old Europe style. There are far better technique's including the one you mention. The pivot point is mid way between elbow and wrist, wrist is added to this. But, you also need the torso to coil like a spring etc.
@@TomLodziak. There are multiple versions of the same 'named' shot. The theory is the same but if the execution has a completely different pivot point and weight transfer technique, it is a quite different 'shot'. Nuanced I know, but important to distinguish between.
repeated slow motion more than 3times was so good thx for that..
keep the good work
Yeah! Tom is back! That is great! I hope to see you more often. ;-) I love your videos. Thanks a lot to Ferenc. I will try these tipps as soon as possible. ;-)
Thank you. I have plans for lots of new videos. Hopefully there will be no more lockdowns and we can keep playing.

Thanks Tom..I have learned so much from your channel.
Many thanks from Indonesia.

Excellent instructive video, especially movements in slow motion made learning quite easy.
Tom, Thanks for teaching

Thanks you. I do have a video where I demonstrate my more basic backhand flick. You can watch that here: ruclips.net/video/QUsYDghnLWk/видео.html
Thanks Tom!

😁😁 it's really effective thanks for the tip sir
Tom is Back-Again 🤣🤣🤣🥳🥳🥳
ferenc is actually my coach
Hi thalaiva..seeing you after longtime...
Cool !!!
How about the same technique this time with the forehand?
A forehand flick tutorial with Ferenc will be coming soon - July or August.
Tom, can you please tell us how to cure Table Tennis elbow which is resulted from lots of handsy actions
Table tennis elbow (or tennis elbow) can take many months to heal. You usually have to stop playing for a while to allow the tendons or muscles to repair. My best advice is go and see a physio, so you can be assessed properly. Good luck.

💗💗💗
What I also notice is that your table tennis table in the video looks much smaller, so standard. 😏 What are the actual dimensions? Thanks.
The table is a standard size table. Maybe it looks smaller because of the camera angle?
You make it look so easy but really hard to execute..
🏓👍
How does this apply to hook serves with right-sidespin?
For sidespin serves, you can use the same technique, but your bat should start higher and you need to contact towards the top of the ball.
@@TomLodziak Thank you Tom
mantappp
Or can u do a giveway 🙏
Sadly I am not able to play table tennis due to the pandemic...
It has been very disrupted in the UK also. We have been able to play in clubs for three weeks now. Hopefully clubs will stay open now. Fingers crossed!
Are there no outdoor tables with you?
@@rudylion1469 no mate,I used to go my school to play tt or to the club that I have near my house with my colleagues,sadly they both are closed due to the pandemic..
@@saikathghosh8733
That is too bad. In a big city like Cologne, numerous plates are used outside in parks, even during the pandemic.👍
@@rudylion1469 yeah mate, situation here is quite rough..

He is hungarian like me
Good boy my child my son
Chinese coaches teach that the racket should be moved with the fingers, not the wrist. Thumb backhand. The movement is faster and more controllable.
The technique in this video is very outdated imo, very old Europe style. There are far better technique's including the one you mention. The pivot point is mid way between elbow and wrist, wrist is added to this. But, you also need the torso to coil like a spring etc.
As always, there are multiple ways of playing the same shot. Try out different methods and see which works best for you.

Can u giveway a racket to me i need racket🙏
