This is high definition video footage of Roger Federer warming up at the 2009 BNP Paribas Open in Indian Wells, Ca. It contains footage from several different days. Special thanks to the tournament for allowing us to film and share this material on RUclips.
The footage from behind his back is PRICELESS! You really get a good feeling of his timing, distance to the ball and footwork by watching it....
hey guys I'm a tennis coach for the Fed the Tennis in Valencia, Spain, and I would like to say that this video has been so useful to my error detention and improvement of my game as well as my teaching. Thanks once again for being so helpful.
one of our family friends met him, and he brought his 5 year old kid to meet him as well. And his son asked Federer, "are you better than my dad?" and Federer replied, "no one is better than your dad!". Just goes to show how great of a guy Federer actually is!
Federer's forehand is one of the only forehands that acts like a whip. His forehand snaps at the end of every forehand shot like a whip that cracks when you snap it. It's very effortless and VERY effective. His forehand generates much more topspin that a lot of other players on the tour.
Roger you have been a true example of a ideal sportsman..really bow towards your determination on this game..you are born to conquer the tennis and your name will be printed in the mind of many people who even haven't seen you yer.. thousands of years after also people won't forget you.. you the true legend...just a click away..today's final..
all the best ROGER..and all i have left to say..
GO ROGER....
this is the greatest tennis player the world has ever witnessed. its not even a question
Yessssss! This is the video every Federer fan has been waiting for!
THANK YOU.
Footage of Rafael Nadal is now UP! Check out our channel, or click the "Video Response" link right underneath Roger's video above.
yup, watching this vid in HD, seeing when the muscles actually tense in combination with the superb angles you were able to capture have led to a ground-breaking revelation in my game. Thanks again, Will. My groundstrokes, volleys, and serve improved just like that.
Ohh man im so in love with his forehand... the way he whips through the ball. Perfect
Great footage. Especially the shots from behind Fed, those were awesome.
And this is also the clearest most HD video of RUclips.
Thanks Madbanana, We have footage like this of the top 15 men and top 10 women. We will get it online as soon as possible, but we need to transfer and edit all of the material first.
Thanks for the message, Fuzzy!! Great video in HD!! NIce job of recording the King practicing. I have had the opportunity to watch Roger live on practice courts and it was amazing to see him up close. TV does not do his great forehand justice!! The amount of spin on his shots is incredible to see live and up close!!
i have watched it 100 of time n never get bored !
I think I could literally re-watch this video for an entire day.
The quality of this video is almost as good as Federer's forehand (compliment)!!!!
i love his forehand so much- its so fluid and it like has the right amount of spin and depth!
well done. this is probably the best video for people that idolize this guy. FED Express baby
beauty, both Roger's shots and the quality. Can't wait for more, keep it up FYB!
the camera angle from behind is simply the best angle. please record more of those !
The camera is a JVC GY-HD250U, the same camera we use to shoot our in-studio material.
The thing about Roger Federer is that you just cannot imagine to see a more brilliant technically gifted player. The execution of every shot is so brilliant, precise and made look effortless thats is unbelievable. Djokovic is a mental giant. Nadal is a physically ridicolous player.
Look at how he keeps the eye contact at the ball even after hitting it... this is the key to his accuracy!
So glad the changed the angle at the end...love it.
I could watch this all day.....every day...
I could watch this all day !!!
Fed's a freakin machine, and this is just practice!
I love Indian Wells. Went there again with some friends this year.
his hitting is absolutely sublime...awesome video
If you look above the video tab, it says "this video is still processing, higher quality may be available soon." video was just uploaded, give it an hour.
Smoothest strokes in the history of the game.
Absolutely no hitches or wasted motion anywhere.
not a stupid question at all! federer's forehand is really tough to pin down because he has elements of a classic and modern / windshield wiper forehand. he hits most of his forehands with a windshield wiper but he hits classic forehands as well. his forehand is different from most of the other players on tour because it's so varied.
If you go to our channel, we have organized our Federer material into a playlist. You'll find plenty of slow-motion video of Roger in there, forehands, backhands, serves, etc. We also brought video cameras that could shoot at 200+ FPS, check it out.
When he hits around everyone just stares in awe. :)
HD is amazing!!!!
to all the people out there: i would love to see roger win 2 more slams. i would love to see him win 30 more. and i wouldnt be bored watching. I lived at a time where I was able to watch his dominant streak from 2005-2007 (and a bit of 2008). But it just isnt possible for somebody to be on top for THAT long. he had a hell of a run guys, but he doesnt have more than a couple slams left in him. :( and so it will be that the greatest tennis player of all time will be remembered in the history books
Thank you again FYB form UK. Looking forward to seeing the other footage. Perhaps see you at Wimbledon.
thanks a lot man for this, the quality is great...
Yes! Because the brilliance of Federer's Game is not only in the arm.. Look how he moves around the court.. how he also uses his left arm in the forehand, how he does shoulder turn and many many things more that maybe one can do it but one thing by hit, he does it all at the same time, everytime and with wordclass.
Great stuff! I look forward to seeing them!
Not sure how many other fans are technique obsessed like me but the slow motion forehands are especially appreciated, not to mention the steady camera work!
Also, there are few videos on youtube watching him practise from behind so it is refreshing to see casual hitting from this angle.
How shall I look out for the upcoming vids (and for the benefit of everyone else)?
The view from the back is fantastic. We want more ;-)
beautifull vid!! congrats for the high quality!!
Great. Like many tennis players, we use FYB and other net videos to reinforce lessons and look for some of the newer techniques. Slow motion just brings into perfect clarity the stages a championship stroke goes through and the muscle memory that has to be built. Tx.
glad to see I'm not the only one who appreciates true beauty
enjoy it while you can people, nobody this smooth is gonna come around again for a long time.
his footwork and positioning is just amazing.
thanks so much for posting this stunning video, I've made a revolutionary discovery after watching it.
fantastic quality
this is AMAZING quality..feels like you are there in real life...
We're already on it DMC. However, we are first going to get longer footage like this up of all the pros we filmed at the tournament. You should start to see shorter sections in the next two weeks. Also, later today we will begin uploading slow motion video of the pros, shot at 200+ FPS.
I also want to add that the video may look choppier than it really is because we set the shutter speed very high for this video. The shutter is set to 1/1000 of a second so that we can freeze the action in other videos we will make with this footage. Because of that, you won't see any motion blur in this footage, and it may seem choppier as a result.
every shot directly in the middle of the racket... amazing..
i love the way his head stays in its place for a fraction of a second after hitting the ball. one of the tricks to fed's accuracy.
For some people, the HD video is choppy. It's just the nature of the beast... Playing back HD video requires a fast connection and a fast computer. For me, and from other comments on this video, the video is playing silky smooth.
the best part is he is so nonchalant and makes it look so effortless
@26Remoh Thanks for the tip, That's the best youtube tech advice I've ever gotten, lovin the slow mo
That's close. Federer is in between an eastern and a semi-western. Some have called his grip a "modified eastern." Heel pad on bevel 3 and index knuckle on the edge between bevel 3 and 4. Nadal is basically a western. Heel pad and index knuckle on bevel 4 1/2 (edge between bevel 4 and 5).
i thought that last year but he is still clearly motivated and knows what he wants to achieve out of his career.he is obviously trying to live up to peoples expectations of him and playing for the glory rather then the love,but it will be interesting to see how becoming a father will effect his tennis.most peoples priorities change,anyway we will have to wait and see
Really great compilation, but there is one mistake which I think most of us agree with. Its at the end where the text says; " To learn how to play like Roger, visit... "
Its just not possible to learn to play like him since he is one of a kind;)
Wow! Beautiful one handed backhand👍👍👍
i have observed this guys serve for 2 days now (not a stalker) and i have finally found my new favorite way to serve!
rog hits out shots that would be considered killers for other players so easily. racket control is unbelievable.
also congratz for roger winning his 6th wimbledon title.
@TennisVideosOnly who wouldn't! its just beautiful
Just epic form. Best strokes ever
Tobo... I wanted to put something up quickly so that people could see what FYB has been working at for the last few weeks. But rest assured, we have 2.5 HOURS of HD footage like this of JUST Federer ;) Nadal, Verdasco, etc are all coming soon =)
the video quality looks great
@niclassj thats the swiss davis-cup coach, i think he helps Federer out alot as he travels with him alot.
effortless forehand..
fantastic!
that's why he didn't injured himself much.
different style w/ other top 4 players and look he is more efficient and mature in all aspect of tennis shot.
never cease to amaze
can't imagine any better than this
Already 10 years! Wow!
I get what your saying.
Obviously in match play he plays different (in the video he played pretty well)
But through out what he does, he maintains form. Shoulder turn, knee bend and what not. He might slack on the footwork, but I'm sure he hadn't hit before this, he probably just hits the ball like 500 times to feel the ball out and time his shots.
You see college players and some juniors that seem to be messing around, its really to get there timing and heart going. Hope this helps.
its a far more rounded and intelligent game today thanx to roger.
it's all so fluid so efforless ! awesome
One think I learned from his play is that to turn my shoulder early for good preparation, and in order to do it, I need to develop good judgement on how fast the ball is coming, which direction it's coming from, and where I should stand in order to give myself enough time interval to swing my racquet to meet the ball. That needs practice, practice and more practice. hehe.
i agree with what you said man, he just needs to find his swagger again. I think right now he just needs to win some tournies because i dont think he's won since october.
ya i commented on it. your forehand looks good! nice work keep it up. you'll be hitting like roger in no time :)
depends on your perspective...that's your opinion. pete sampras strung his beyond max at around 65 which was something that helped him with his great volleys, but was also really impressive how hard he hit with that tiny 85" frame at that tension on groundstrokes. i string mine at 62 always, so yes in my mind 57 is low.
Such a pleasure to watch hit the ball
Very Very Nice Video, Thank you!
@i337gamer yeah you're right about the stats and the graphics as far as Federer and other pros are concerned. I also had a k-factor but now play a six-one team BLX (95sq inch). Pretty cool racket ;)
so effortless
he used to. he peaked at the 07 aussie open. slight decline during the rest of 07, steep decline in 08. and now hes kinda settled at a level thats like his OK days of 2008
wow in HD is very good this.
RUclips needs a little time (sometimes an hour or two) to process HD videos. HD will show up as an option soon.
I'll have to confirm it on the court tonight, but I may have discovered the problem I've been having with my takeback on the forehand and serve. I've taken some practice swings and it feels pretty good. I'll give you a heads up if my discovery is correct.
This roger federer is better than today
Hey tobo. If you subscribe to our channel you'll be notified when we upload new videos. We'll have a bunch of new ones in the coming weeks and months.
he strung at 57 for a while, which in my view is a very low tension that allows him to hit the ball harder. it's still an impressive feat because he has to put enough top on it with racquet speed to make up for the lost control at that tension.
He has like the most fluid motion for every shot and he hits the ball so cleanly no wonder he hardly ever gets injured. Does anyone think he'll be able to win 20 slams before he retires? I think he definitely can but its going to get more difficulty as time goes by because of guys like Del Potro coming through. He's got at least 2 good years left if he wants to finish and leave on top.
His DPS is off the charts.
i never realized how quick he is through the tv, it almost looks like he's moving in 2x through the video, but looking at the people around him, you know its normal speed, thats crazy
yes, it was. you can see what happened; after the serve, there was a crosscourt backhand exchange; fed then went DTL and his opponent went for an aggressive cross court. fed anticipated the shot and got there before his opponent expected him to; fed hit DTL before his opponent could cover the open court.
no problem thanks!
@lmsypj no, his dad was about a 5-6 player, he is really good, and when he was a kid he was a top junior here in Canada, even though that's not saying much :P.
Thats incredible that he did that, such a classy guy!
This is literally a day at the office for Roger. Classic practice form!
Unfortunately, we can't sell the footage we captured at Indian Wells. Part of our agreement with the tournament was that in exchange for being allowed to officially videotape parts of the tournament, we were not allowed to sell any of the material or run ads against it. Basically, we can't profit from any of this footage. Maybe I can look into ways to make the original .wmv files available for download somewhere.
It would be great to have more of this video (separate videos) cut into slow motion sections. Right now there's some around the 5 min mark, but more would be, in this case, better.
HE's just... perfect!
Definitely faving this...thanks Will(I'm sorry if I said the wrong name lol)
Good movement is the key to success
