Thanks, very helpfull

[@johnybrokeit]

Mannnn! That was awesome! That topspin serve he did, my goodness. I rewound and rewound the video over and over again but still am not able to read how he calls that a TOP spin. lseems like some kind of side spin to me. This is beauty!

[@johnybrokeit]

I mean at time 1:27, its like he's side swiping the ball not brushing it above it like a topspin requires ;p wow, what :) ?

[@Brian-wy2od]

the topspin serve at 1:52 is well masked and quite deceptive.

[@bertrandd.5611]

Great vid!

[@alimpurnomosidi3261]

It really helps me a lot. by the way, Why when I do side spin serve the ball not bounce like the way it is on the video? Is it because I use cheap rubber? Or my technique is bad? Somebody please answer

[@SilentThespian]

Nice vid. But playing different variations of side-spins is a trickier affair than shown in this vid.

[@richiejohn3679]

Excellent ! although i wish the interviewer would shut up and let hm get on with it

[@epicdaytrading]

Thx for the video!!

[@theein2917]

How attack aggressively a very low serve close to net?

[@otisskopik1400]

With a perfect flick it is possible

[@fplfreak339]

thanks sir

[@chamnabkong6472]

That's a very good video,thanks! I wish he was my coach.

[@ranbirsinghhappy9162]

Nice

[@WFangW]

What if my opponent serve sidespin to my left and I'm right-handed, How I supposed to return ? Because when I returned, the ball went out of the table

[@noobsplaynoobgames2463]

Use your backhand

[@misterawesome1234]

side spin shots are a lot easier to flick, try that.

[@smoker3092]

Nakarin Ley return with backhand

[@_nounenntv9332]

if both of you and your opponent are right handed, if he serve pendulum serve use forehand, if he serve reverse pendulum use your backhand.

[@SilentThespian]

It depends of the serve whether it has put left or right sidespin on the ball. If the ball has left sidespin and comes to your backhand side, you may use backhand push or topspin the ball; if it has right sidespin and comes to your right, then you would want to return it with a chop or with a forehand push with a flatter bat angle directed towards your opponents backhand side, if he is righthanded.

[@TechSurfer]

Thanx to u both

[@OverseerKevin]

I thought this was serve return? The majority of the questions are focus on the serve. Jmo

[@cwarim22]

[@arthurfranca5516]

Does not diferenciate long and short serves. Serves long and slow on the forehand. Cant explain correctly when to push when to flick. ( is not a matter of easy or hard). Very bad lesson i think.
