Forehand Push Fundamentals: Improve Your Backspin and Consistency

www.PingSkills... - In this video, we dive into the forehand push, a crucial defensive stroke in table tennis that allows you to control rallies with effective backspin. We break down the three key concepts-start position, feet position, and finish position-to help you execute the stroke with precision. You'll also learn how to adjust your bat angle to generate varying degrees of backspin, depending on the spin your opponent imparts on the ball. Finally, we'll guide you through practical drills to enhance your proficiency and consistency with the forehand push, ensuring you're well-prepared for your next match. Whether you're a beginner or looking to refine your technique, this tutorial will provide you with the tools to master the forehand push.

You boys have been doing this for so long and still looking great! I have learned more about TT than from you both than I could have ever imagined. Thank you 🏓

Eager to your forehand topspin against block tutorial☺

[@pingskills]

Thanks. We currently have a video on the forehand topspin against block but we will be remaking it soon. Alois is currently at the Paralympics so once he gets back we'll be creating more videos!

Please teach us to use Long pimple

[@pingskills]

We have some videos on this. Just google "PingSkills long pimples".

[@mokgable]

Set yourself up a long pips paddle and give it a try. I am in the process of doing it now. It is just for messing around tho. I will continue to use my regular rubbers for real matches.

[@pingskills]

Sounds good!

[@leecherlarry]

thanks for the video, good to see you back! how about videos on more advanced shots lol? fh push fundamentals orly?

[@pingskills]

Thanks! We will be working on different videos but the one's we have on the basic strokes are fairly old now and we think these new one's are an improvement. Is there a specific video you would like to see?

[@leecherlarry]

​@@pingskills i know you woht make it (and nobody has done it before) but i'd like to see a ref video on the *reverse punch* (it's a backhand shot based on the "no spin loop"). it's non-textbook shot which one can witness rather frequently in minor league clubs: there's always one player in every club who knows about the shot and applies it regularly. in a match it can be applied quite often, namely to most balls which bounce off the table high enough into one's backhand region, no matter its trajectory, speed, and spin (but there's indeed a safe green zone which is optimal for its application, while it gets riskier beyond that frame)

Can you give tips for penhold also please?

[@pingskills]

We aren't penhold players ourselves but we can look into if we can get someone who is penhold to help us out.

Where should be the contact point on the racket? Apart from the angle of the bat, what should I do to increase the spin? By accelerating the wrist movement? How can I redirect the push on the right side of the table since wrist movement is limited with forehand push? Thanks

[@pingskills]

I think the best idea is to practice your consistency and this will develop your feel for the ball. Then you can try playing one forehand push to your opponent's forehand and the next to their backhand by opening up the angle of your wrist some more.
