By yodalr [Affiliate User] 1220272517 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveInteresting approach pinarello001, this would make a good thread for a table tennis forum discussion - coaching styles. Personally as a player I find the timing needed for using the wrist to generate effective topspin much harder to master. However I am not a coach. Comments forwarded to Jim for his reply.
By PathfinderPro [Affiliate User] 1219941532 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveI understand that this is a basic level. I coach and have found it very difficult to 'switch' the wrist on as the player develops. It is much easier to start them off with a controlled wrist action. I get them to use nothing but the wrist in a short block drill - very small movement and they become very confident in a short space of time. At a later stage I get them playing with an aggressive backhand and no wrist - this requires excellent timing which initially is difficult. more...
By pinarello001 [Affiliate User] 1219938820 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removepinarello001 this is part 1 of a 4 part series and is the "basic level" and therefore not aimed at top players who already have control in their game. Part 3 builds on part 1 and 2 and explains about using the wrist which as you rightly point out is more advanced and definately used by the top professionals.
By PathfinderPro [Affiliate User] 1219860377 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveIf you look at professionals, the wrist action is exaggerated. Look at the Samsonov training video: 'Exquisite action of the wrist'. This style of coaching is un-dynamic and half the reason that UK TT is way behind the continentals. Just have a look at top players and the use of the wrist - especially Boll, both in forehand and backhand. The mens game at the top-level is predominantly top-spin and in order to create or counter this top-spin (even during blocking) is with added use of the wrist.

In particular, what you should be think about before you serve and the impact your decisions can have on how your opponent returns your serve.

By brado32003 [Affiliate User] 1216233185 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveWe mix and match between coaching and documentary style videos on table tennis. Last videos were on table tennis club secretaries about a month ago. Next playing video has been filmed and is Jim demonstrating 10 things he thinks every player should consider prior to physically serving the ball. Probably another 2 to 3 weeks before I'll finish editing and downloading them on to YouTube - depending on my other commitments. Thanks
