Great video! I'm also guilty of the "big swing" and I'm right in the middle of working it up, exactly as you said. The more I feel the control on the backhand, the more confident I feel in it. I think it's really important to remember that when you see the big pro backhand shots, they're mostly done far from table where they have tons of time to setup for the ball - the same players don't swing big when close to table either unless it's a totally free ball.
look into olav kosolosky and Ti Long, they also make some incredibly good table tennis coaching videos. Olav Kosolosky is a newer youtuber who I recently found out about, but in just two months his videos have skyrocketed in quality! you should definitely check him out.
@@PechPongTTcan you explain how make backhand topspin after long and half long fast pendulum ( side understand) serve? When I must to ball, after bounce or on peak?
👍👍 Superb!! Very comprehensive video on how to overcome making mistakes in the TT backhand stroke . Could you please make another short video covering for the short balls received on the table. Thanks,
I've seen a lot of backhand demonstrations I would say this one , for me, is definitely the best. Seeing someone explain exactly the problems they had and I have those same mistakes in my backhand , that helps me because now I know what to do to correct the problem. I've always struggled with bat angle I hit the back of the ball never generating any real spin . I feel after watching this video I really understand the mechanics involved in the backhand topspin. Thankyou
Superb. I am a specialist multiball coach and see too many players who fall into bad backhand habits from an early stage. You have covered all the issues really concisely and clearly. And especially powerful is how you have recognised and tackled the fact that the technical problems can be linked with each other. Also, your advice is great for all levels, from beginner to advanced.
My god! The frisbee analogy is amazing! I used to throw frisbees a lot and immediately thinking of a frisbee got me understanding the difference between just "moving my arm in this direction" to "utilizing my elbow as a whip". It's incredibly how many of those techniques are really happening in your head. Once it clicks, you can instantly make a lot of progress. Thanks again!
Best tutorial video I've seen. Suggesting mistakes we make and how to correct them is so much better than saying 'do it this way', as it's easy to think we are doing it 'this way' when we're not. Lots to take on board in the video, I'll have to come back to it again and again, I think. As soon as the video finished, I subscribed, thank you so much.
One thing that helped my backhand a lot is to recalibrate my mind to perceive the ball as a 3D object instead of a small point. Hitting the back of the ball is very different from the top of the ball because it is much closer. Therefore the timing of the bh stroke should be earlier as opposed to a shot with a flatter angle which contacts the ball at the top. To practice hitting the back of the ball I would force myself to hit the air behind the ball and be amazed to still be able to connect. The ball is much bigger than I originally envisioned it to be. In the same vein, hitting more to the left of the ball is also different from the middle and slightly further away. Now everytime I hit with my backhand I have a much better grasp of the ball and the contact point.
As a backhand dominant player it's interesting to see solutions to things I solved using intuition. The only weak backhand stoke I have left is the smash but that is a very advanced attack that not even pros usually use. Jörgen Person was great with the backhand smash though.
9:40 Wow, you addressed the exact problem I have with my backhand that I've always struggled with fixing. My stroke and ball trajectory is exactly like 9:45, which makes it hard for me to do backhand training and multiball.
First of all your introduction was Hilarious, you really made me laugh. Your back hand tips are amazing and i for one am really grateful for all your amazing tutorial videos. Many, many thanks.
Love this video. I really enjoyed watching it. I wish all the teachers teach the way you teach table tennis. I feel I learn more this way than just doing exercises without getting any real theory to focus on.
Very useful video. I try to teach things that are second nature to me, but it's hard to put them in words and explain why things have to be done a certain way. Never stop learning! Thank you!
I watched all of these videos without skipping, and I think the explanation here is very complete and can describe in detail what the movements are like when starting from a mistake to moving on to the next stage. I feel the explanation in this video is very good. Thank you for your efforts in summarizing and making this video. The most important thing is that it is as easy as possible for other people to understand, because sometimes video explanations are not as easy as expected, so they are a bit difficult to understand. Great 👍👍
Thanks yes I try to make the game as simple as possible and encourage people to do things that may at first be uncomfortable but in the long run work better!
Thank u from Guadeloupe, in my country we have a lack of pedagogy because we dont have big trainers. youtube is our best way to improve. I subscribed to your page.
Great video. Key is conscious incompetence! I love how You integrate small steps and consistently Watch out for training bad technique. You have a fan, Sire!
awesome video! This is specifically great for me, as someone who learned only by grinding drills without much theory. I only learned "the right way" to do backhand. By explaining each bad habit in detail, why they're bad, and why these bad habits occur, you're bringing to consciousness the bad habits that I have developed. I especialy like the contrast training technique, as this wasn't part of how I learned. I also really like the clips of professional play to bring the point home.
Newbie question about 18:30: Is underspin and backspin the same, and is it possible to return a ball which has backspin with a topspin backhand (or forehand)??? Thanks a million for your AMAZING content. It is truly appreciated!
you are one of the best couches in youtube for table tennis ... your points are supper helpful I am a player from London and I enjoy your videos and apply many of your tips and i have improved a lot by doing that. please keep it going.
the first images in black and white are very nice ... you are a good video maker too ... well done ... with no facilities you are making such a good video ...
Amazing video! Was really nice to meet you at the Frankfurt Championship! I'm that guy that asked if you were PechPong and later introduced you to my other friend who was working at the SpinSight booth Wish you luck on your season here in Germany!
Great Video. Probably one of the most comprehensive backhand guide I have seen so far. To your question about which problem I have; It's probably all of them... ^^ So I'm looking forward to trying your tips on solving them.
Just watched whole video. Excellent one! thank you. One comment about having hand low when looping topspin issue. I have that issue. The situation usually happens when I first bh loop an underspin ball since you have to put your hand position low. But after that, the ball comes back with a top spin and at that time, I didn't keep my hand high. I drop my hand at a low position again. So the instruction is after underspin loop, I need to keep my hand high since the ball coming back is topspin.
Thank you, Seth. I would consider my backhand about 75% there. Your many thoughtful drills are going to help my backhand become more powerful and consistent.
Great video, I always like watching this type of video before I go to play, it’s subliminal training for me much like when I was ski pro. It allows me to practice with more of a purpose that will extend into my match play
This channel is awesome, also THE BEST ADVICE FOR FOREHAND FLICK is that u use the backspin and more open angle of the racket and not trying to overspin the ball.
Thanks for the video! Couldn't find the most related to me though(except for timing of course). Which is after lifting the backspin with the first hit, using my legs and back, I keep using my back extension instead of reaching forward with hips pushed back. Cheers!
Another fantasitc video and I appreciated the humor int he beginning. I've long been subject to the "hit it to his backhand" only strategy - which is super frustrating. Your video touched immediately on two of my biggest issues, which are reaching and timing. Going to try out your tips with my robot and see if they help. Question - how long do you recommend that I do each drill during a practice session?
Do the drills as long as you can stay focused, maybe 10 min rest 10 min rest 10 min rest. Make sure you are uncomfortable and working on doing it right, the next time you come back you will have an enhanced awareness and it will only get better if you keep that process.
@@PechPongTT Thanks. I have the power pong robot as well. Do you recommend practicing with the same kind of ball that you show in the videos. I.e., a somewhat high, relatively low spin ball?
Thank you for this video. There is so much relevant information presented absolutely clearly and concisely. Could you do a video like this about the fh and bh push?
Thanks for the fantastic guidance! Timing is definitely the hardest battle to me, but all mistakes are relevant to any non-professional player I guess.
Hey Seth, love your videos, thanks for another amazing one. Are you planning to upload and analyze the matches you play / played in Germany? Would love to see you play and analyze some of the people you have come across at the tournaments you played, because i've already played against some of them myself.
Very, VERY well done Seth..sharing with the crew I coach in MD. Have used frisbee analogy for years...borrowed it from Larry Hodges. Hope youre doing well. This is Steve Hochman under nom de plum LOL.
Good video. Just on the closed to open, I think when you keep the racket angle parralel to the ground (0 degrees), invert the wrist as much as possible, let your shoulder/arm down and also go down slighyl from your knees, you get extra power by unwinding the wrist and going from closed to open. Has to be spot on timing but I do feel the best shots are from closed to open.
It’s true when you look at good players many of them wind their wrists up in the closed position on strong backhands, the difference is that they are able to skillfully maneuver the racket back into position whereas most players when they try to replicate this they can’t. So it’s much easier to just keep it open for most players. The players that can maneuver their wrist will not change because they see no need to.
love the video, one of the problems i have is that i drop my racket to much on topspin ball just like you said. for me it alway felt like i do that because i am used to playing the first ball against backspinn and i have to lift and the the second on i want to lift is as well because that is what i just did i would also love to see a video like this for blocking, countering, loop to loop and others, it is just such a grat format and as a coach it is always nice to hear how a different person ( especially somebod that is a lot better than i am) helps players correct mistakes
Yeah I also had that problem as well it takes time and takes many reps to fix. I think it’s a great format too and leads to different content than what you traditionally see on UA-cam tutorials
Yeah tall players have an advantage when it comes to backhand because high balls to backhand are difficult for normal or shorter people. The reach of taller players is also better for over the table swings so try to utilize that more. Some adjustments you should make are to bend your knees more and keep your chest forward more than others.
I started concentrating on my backhand a few years ago and my forehand suffered it changed the way I play...Currently I have been working my forehand again and it is a weapon again I lost it for a while. So far, the return board has been the best training for the backhand I have made up some good drills on my tabletop model...
The return board has made a noticeable difference in my game I don't use it the conventional way I make up drills that go directly to my problem areas of play close to "multi-drill" level. The robot ruined my match play I spend 2.5years working it I am good again right now it took months.@@PechPongTT
Great video!
I'm also guilty of the "big swing" and I'm right in the middle of working it up, exactly as you said. The more I feel the control on the backhand, the more confident I feel in it.

Yes give it a try for me it took several sessions of practice to get it grooved in.
My god! The frisbee analogy is amazing! I used to throw frisbees a lot and immediately thinking of a frisbee got me understanding the difference between just "moving my arm in this direction" to "utilizing my elbow as a whip".
It's incredibly how many of those techniques are really happening in your head. Once it clicks, you can instantly make a lot of progress. Thanks again!
Eyy good that the frisbee analogy clicked for you
I was in the park throwing a frisbee with some friends and It reminded me of playing backhands so much I wanted to play sum haha
Yaaaa good advice buuut I really sucks with frisbee. 😂 even my bh is better 😂

Yeah I also had that problem as well it takes time and takes many reps to fix. I think it’s a great format too and leads to different content than what you traditionally see on UA-cam tutorials
this video really helped me play better on Eleven VR
Awesome video! Your channel is the gift that keeps on giving. Question though, would any of these tips change for an extremely tall player?
Yeah tall players have an advantage when it comes to backhand because high balls to backhand are difficult for normal or shorter people. The reach of taller players is also better for over the table swings so try to utilize that more. Some adjustments you should make are to bend your knees more and keep your chest forward more than others.
