Thanks for watching. If you enjoy this video then take a look at the following tutorials we have made on serving and receiving: www.pingskills.com/categories/serving-and-receiving
Dear Alois, your way of teaching is very good. Because you speak slowly and with pause, when required. In this video the use of disc for explaining 'Spin' is very appropriate.
Good job guys! Much needed video for me as I am struggling a lot in serves. My forehand and backhand is very good but I am struggling in serves .Earlier it was lot of confusion when I played. I couldn't understand which spin I am doing. Thank you very much for doing a lot of hardwork in this video. Thank you and keep posting such amazing videos.
Great video, This spin has explained in a very simple and userfriendly way. I really got the enough skill to leaan spinning of the ball. Keep it up and keep on sharring such a videos.
Watching you Alois brings back such old memories and makes me interested in playing once again. Those pennant nights down at the old Albert Park, junior squads and tournaments were fun. If my memory serves me correctly 43+ years ago, you learnt from Robbie. Great to see you've continued your love of the game and looking here & your website have made it a integral part of your life. Congrats. 😎
sir very very much thanks i am from india seeing your video to spin the ball you are great thanks a lot and you are telling with that disk nobody on youtube is telling with that and it is easy to understand with disk thanks a lot
Thanks alot, im trying to learn this skill at 33 after playing vr table tennis! My dad could always do this spin shot when i was kid and id have no chance ! Haha
@@pingskills Thanks! I do train on my serve to try and improve it. And videos like this inspire me to keep on practicing my serve, even if it is at times boring to train just by oneself.
@@pingskills haha...sorry......by volume I meant can you guys please increase the number of videos you post on youtube....I meant volume as in the amount of videos....not sound :D
one of my opponents has some great long underspin-sidespin serves that are impossible to return. i tried blocking them but the ball just fell to my side. i can only return them with topspin strokes but then he will destroy me with this backhand (its almost as strong as otto's from pongfinity). how do i beat this guy?
Angel Koulas there is two ways 1 try to pressure your opponent like hitting your topsin stroke more harder so he would mess up his backhand Or You can hit the ball slowly and obverse his backhand and position yourself correctly to do a rally fight
@@angelkoulas95 Well done. Also if you don't feel confident topspinning the serve then you can return it with a push stroke. However in the long term you are best developing your attacking stroke off a ball that doesn't bounce twice on the table.
I used to just try any angle to get spin thats how you do it just have fun for hours just figuring out angles on serves I had a serve i called the gullotine 🔪 🗣 🏓 i held the paddle upside down cut across it like the medieval weapon lol and then another ghost serve variation 👻😱🏓
I ask on behalf of all of us who grew up in the 20th century... can we use an audio cassette instead of a CD...? We have ton's of those laying around even though we no longer have a cassette player... :-\
When going for an extremely short serve with heavy backspin, I feel like I have to pass my racket completely under the ball and flick upwards, contacting the FRONT of the ball ("7 or 8" on the clock you have there) to avoid sending it too far. Do you do anything similar for that kind of serve or am I imagining things?
It's great you are experimenting with this. That certainly is a good way to achieve a lot of backspin. Take a look at this video for more information on this: www.pingskills.com/tutorials/must-learn-serves/ma-lin-ghost-serve-bat-angle Keep up the good work :)
You didn't show clearly how create the spin. Hand position, action, which moment to do side and back spin. Only can learn over(big picture) not detail how actually to do it.
I see. This means you need to hit the ball more finely. Pretend there is a fly on the ball and you are trying to hit the fly off the ball without touching the ball. Once you have a fast bat and a fine brushing contact you will generate lots of spin. Good luck!
It certainly takes some practice. See if you can try serving onto the floor and generating as much spin as you can. This is a good way to practice the fast brushing action without the pressure of having to serve the ball on the table. Good luck!
Just dont let them neighborhood players do those cheat serves like serving it outta their hands or hide the ball on serves haha a video on why basement players play so illegally would be a great clip lol why dont common people ever know the rules to table tennis
None of us do that in "actual matches". Just when messing around with friends. And the reason is because it's more fun and not really much of an advantage. Serving is one of the only ways to bring creativity into the game without having to actually be good at it. My go-to's are tossing with fingers, tossing from the left corner over to the right corner, throwing the toss off walls or ceilings, and putting the ball between my fingers and slapping it out of my hand with the paddle. These we see as fine because they don't provide legit advantage (unless ur dumb) and are still "hit-my side bounce-opponents side bounce". Game mechanics are the same, we just ignore unimportant formalities. Ones that don't fly are intentionally serving in front of the line, saying lets count, the "bounce then hit" method, or "rolling" the ball off the paddle. These are disliked because they provide legit advantage to the server. The illegal serves aren't difficult to return either unless you have 0 concept of how to deal with mild spin. They're basically just a fun way to determine whether or not your friend/opponent is an idiot who can't adapt and doesn't get physics.

Thanks. I'm glad you are benefitting from the videos. Good luck with your table tennis.
It is a wonderful way to show the principle of ball`s movement after the serve with a static racket!
You’re so good at teaching tennis. You deserve more recognition. Excellent work. Keep it up 👍🏼.
Thanks Stephen. Good luck with your table tennis!

I couldn't understand which spin I am doing. Thank you very much for doing a lot of hardwork in this video. Thank you and keep posting such amazing videos.
I'm glad you liked it. Keep working on your serves because it is an aspect of our game that everyone can always improve!
That visual makes it so much clearer to me! I even got an old cd to further clarify.
This is my favorite video on serving period. Using the CD to practice spin is brilliant. And the exercises with the cones are so helpful for training.
Thanks for your kind words. Good luck with your serves!
Finally some straight to the point video! Thanks!
Great video, This spin has explained in a very simple and userfriendly way. I really got the enough skill to leaan spinning of the ball. Keep it up and keep on sharring such a videos.
Wow amazing serving technics. Thank you very much for the sharing. It's also super clear with slow motion.
I'm glad you liked it. Good luck improving your serves!

Yes certainly still enjoying the game and those are great memories. Was coached by Steve Knapp around that time.
@@PingSkillsFrench My mistake....your lesson with Steve was either just before mine or directly afterwards. Unsure why I said Robbie (Javor).
sir very very much thanks i am from india seeing your video to spin the ball you are great thanks a lot and you are telling with that disk nobody on youtube is telling with that and it is easy to understand with disk thanks a lot

Amazing video....however, please increase the volume of videos you guys put out :)
Is it really soft for you? What happens when you turn up the volume?
@@pingskills haha...sorry......by volume I meant can you guys please increase the number of videos you post on youtube....I meant volume as in the amount of videos....not sound :D
@@justsomeguywholikesramen Ah I see. We'll do our best :)
Yessssss!
Yeesssss indeed!
im waiting for CORKSPIN!!! :( how about corkspin
Hi there, Can you pls tell me which side of the bat to use for backhand and forehand? Thanks, I'm new to TT ps I got a butterfly series 7
You can use any side as they should be the same with that bat.
PingSkills thanks
🔥🔥🔥
hy there . what set-up do you have >?
I'm using the PingSkills Touch with Xiom Vega Pro rubbers.
@@pingskills thanks
@@guesswho710 No worries :)
Do you have to use the left hand to do it?
Not at all. The tips apply whether you are right or left handed.
What's your equipment setup in this video ?
I think I was using the PingSkills Touch with Xiom Vega Pro.
Where do I get a spinning wheel from please I teach Pe
Can You Make A Separate Video on Serves of Different Players? (Fan Zhendong, Xu Xin, Harimoto, Timo Boll, etc)
Good idea.
How can I get that circle ⭕ for practice??
We made that ourselves using a DVD.
one of my opponents has some great long underspin-sidespin serves that are impossible to return. i tried blocking them but the ball just fell to my side. i can only return them with topspin strokes but then he will destroy me with this backhand (its almost as strong as otto's from pongfinity). how do i beat this guy?
Angel Koulas did u try to smash the backhand?
i did but it usually is too fast for my reflexes
Angel Koulas there is two ways
1 try to pressure your opponent like hitting your topsin stroke more harder so he would mess up his backhand
Or
You can hit the ball slowly and obverse his backhand and position yourself correctly to do a rally fight
thanks! strengthening my topspin stroke does indeed work and i get points with it! yesterday i beat him for the 1st time in my life!
@@angelkoulas95 Well done. Also if you don't feel confident topspinning the serve then you can return it with a push stroke. However in the long term you are best developing your attacking stroke off a ball that doesn't bounce twice on the table.

😂😂😂 fucking turkey
I'm learning to serve, but I ain't got spin
Coming down is the hardest thing
I used to just try any angle to get spin thats how you do it just have fun for hours just figuring out angles on serves
I had a serve i called the gullotine 🔪 🗣 🏓 i held the paddle upside down cut across it like the medieval weapon lol
and then another ghost serve variation 👻😱🏓
Great. It certainly is fun to experiment and with serving you don't need a partner so you can practice whenever you like!

Good couching
OT IS IMPOSSIBLR
🏓👍
Thanks for you support.
Ok
hi
Apparently it's all about racks
What about answering nasty serves and reading nasty hidden spins? I find my game can't progress because of this ...
Yeah that does take some practice! Take a look at these tutorials for some help: www.pingskills.com/categories/serving-and-receiving
,💪👌👌👍👍
But the ball is so light that’s my issue with it lol
🙏🙏👏👏😌😌😀😀‼️
You didn't show clearly how create the spin. Hand position, action, which moment to do side and back spin. Only can learn over(big picture) not detail how actually to do it.
Jeff have hold racket from two hands that's why he can't hit
Isn't this supposed to be a premium video?
It's been a free video on our site for a long time, we just never had it on RUclips.
I am trying but it is generating more power
I see. This means you need to hit the ball more finely. Pretend there is a fly on the ball and you are trying to hit the fly off the ball without touching the ball. Once you have a fast bat and a fine brushing contact you will generate lots of spin. Good luck!
I will try thanks for replying
You got my subs
I just have problem with brushing skilld
It certainly takes some practice. See if you can try serving onto the floor and generating as much spin as you can. This is a good way to practice the fast brushing action without the pressure of having to serve the ball on the table. Good luck!

I can't understand anything 😱
Just dont let them neighborhood players do those cheat serves like serving it outta their hands or hide the ball on serves haha
a video on why basement players play so illegally would be a great clip lol why dont common people ever know the rules to table tennis
Good point. We do have this video explaining a lot of the service rules: www.pingskills.com/tutorials/introduction-to-serving/service-rules

You’re in Australia right? If you are. Hope your country doesn’t get covered in fire..

Yes we are and there is a lot of fire around the country at the moment. Thanks for your support.
