You're absolutely right. We have a guy in our company who doesn't have the best shots, but he still manages not to lose all the time. Because he has better ball control than others. Especially the 5 men rod.
In that case I would advise you to learn the it the Pin Shot or the Pull Shot. The second one is more difficult for the most players. But you should Jeep in mind that the second one has a lot more variations to offer (and because of that harder to „catch“ for the defender.
Hoping you'll make a brush pass video that would include proper execution, some practice drills, and how to build a series off of that pass... maybe explaining the difference between beginner, advanced and pro brush passes. I can brush up and down, but seems like having those two options isn't enough.
I do plan on doing a brush series video, but i wanted to get some basics out there for people to learn the true fundamentals of foosball. I personally use a stick series so my next video was all about that.
Hi, I have a lot of problem in locking the ball pin (front/ back) because the ball very easily slides from the pin, I don't understand why no one is facing this issue? I don't feel that locking the ball under pin( back/front) is rudimentary as the ball slips from the grip easily,Any suggestions?
Watching you do it is helpful, but if you could talk us through HOW you do it that would be super helpful. I know words can only go so far. Where do you contact the ball to make it go this direction or that? Where should the ball be in relation to the man or the rod?
Thanks, I'm a beginner and looking to build basic skills. This is pretty useful. In the middle of the video you mention that you should probably use a new ball. Does having a fresh ball make a huge difference? I'm trying to practice with a beat up ball and I'm having a lot of trouble making it go where I want to.
I would highly suggest getting a new ball! It makes a world of difference. But I would also suggest practicing on both. You never know what conditions you will be playing under.
I got a used table. The ball seams to kind of roll, then stop and roll the other way sometimes. Obviously the table has some ups and downs on it. Will this make learning to play properly harder?
American tables, generally, have the extra goalies to prevent dead balls in the corner ... Single goalie tables, generally, have curved corners to prevent same concept
Tornado company decided to create a table with three goalies and it became the most popular tournament style which has been adopted by other table makers, but the one goalie style remains true to the ethics of "table football", which the rest of the world's tables adhere to.
Thank you for sharing! great video... I’m fairly new but looking to improve my skills... have a question regarding the table, I picked up a used one excellent condition a friend was giving away that appears level (think it’s a Harvard 200-300 dollar table gray w black legs) and ball does not roll when I place it anywhere on table except a couple spots, I’m attempting to practice pins but it’s extremely hard to pin the ball w players and hand off pins between players, not sure if that just means need to practice more? Even after a few weeks it still slides away when trying the pinning drills move around and ball moves slightly when letting go of the pin? In general, how much difference does the table make vs a high end tomado table etc?? Thanks in advance!
To be honest with you. The table make all of the difference. You cannot do the same things that you can do on your table like you would a tornado. Newer players often think that they are close enough.... I can promise you they are not. I can play on a ton of different tables, but the only reason i can do that is because i had a good table to learn on. You can go down but not up. If i had to make a comparison it would be like trying to compare BMX Racing to NASCAR.
Pinning the ball cannot be rudimentary, THE BALL SLIDES from under the pin , it is NOT basic please make a series on how to master paining the ball first
I like ya. Don't get carried away about being so bossy! Settle down some! Back in the day we had to work the rod! You're talking like it's the only way to play! if you are correct then foosball is junk and only the fastest man wins. Some get style points!
Foosball is more like playing Chess then just speed.... But in a way yes, the fastest man often wins. Keep in mind, that I am specifically trying to help new players learn to play on tour.
This is the best series for foosball by far, the quality of the explanation is very high, thank you for your valuable content!
Cool tutorial! Definitely gonna level up my foosball skills with these basic drills. Thanks for sharing!
suggestion : do add your hand movement in video. It may give an idea upto what level of practice is needed to get that quickness in hand.
You're absolutely right. We have a guy in our company who doesn't have the best shots, but he still manages not to lose all the time. Because he has better ball control than others. Especially the 5 men rod.
You have helped my game leaps and bounds . Keep up the videos please
Which ball is best for practice...?
Looking forward for more!
Please do a video on hand grip methods to get a strong shot without spinning!

Thank you so much for the tips, impressive indeed!
Thanks!
Hey how do u safely remove thecwesther strip from thevplaying field on a tornado table
Hiya! Great video. Can't wait to watch more. I'm here in the UK and the tables here we only have 1 figure in goal
Y DID THEY ADD THE 2 MEN ON THE BACK GOALIE? LOGIC? GRACIAS! SALUDOS D MEXICO
Corner are plain.
The three man is four non-ramped corners. If the corners have ramps you only have one goalie. The three man is way better.

Tim Simmons what kind of table do you have? If you have a Tornado you should be able to follow along exactly.
that control is mesmerizing ^ω^✨💯
What is the solution for keeping shots from going airborne? Any hard shot gets air on the table I play.
hello from 2021, took me almost 10 years to buy a tornado table, now whith this tutorial i can start my ride to reach EU tournaments :D
You can do it!
Do you think tornado foosballs will make a difference with my experience or am i good with the good ol soccer balls? Maybe i just suck lol

New balls and handle grips are, literally, game changers ... once you try them out, you'll never want to go back
I got a used table. The ball seams to kind of roll, then stop and roll the other way sometimes. Obviously the table has some ups and downs on it. Will this make learning to play properly harder?
man how do you get the ball to stick under the player...the ball is way too slippery
how come there are there extra 2 persons near the goalie
American tables, generally, have the extra goalies to prevent dead balls in the corner ... Single goalie tables, generally, have curved corners to prevent same concept
byronathon that's how my table is. It has wedges in the corners
Tornado company decided to create a table with three goalies and it became the most popular tournament style which has been adopted by other table makers, but the one goalie style remains true to the ethics of "table football", which the rest of the world's tables adhere to.
Great stuff!
I used to carry a golf glove , Allen wrench,silicone. Work over the table before money games. Psych! 😜🍺🎶
Thanks !
good video
does it make a much of a difference depending on what table you use?
It can a little. But the general concepts will be the same.

Chase Pennell thank you! Had no idea made that much difference and appreciate the feedback
Iv just noticed you have 2 player's next to goal keeper, I have 1
Hehe nice Video :) Your first two Frontpins on the 5 bar where not on purpose, right? :) Well improvised ;)
HAHA! No they were on purpose. I was using an old ball so they did not pin the way they normally do. But it was on purpose.
How to grip handle
That is shown in my Pull Shot Tutorial. :-)
I just watched 13 minutes of advertisement and decided to skip the actual video of foosball. Thanks for showing this ad 😆
I hate the slick red balls!!!! I want the sticky white ones!!!!
can someone send me a picture of his monitor screen pls ?
Yo this is exactly what I need. Time to crush my friends

How bro that doesn’t even make sense how he grabs the ball like what!
foosball went to hell when they cut tournament soccer!
Mom I swear I'm watching guy try to ball control in foosball. Not that
