- In this video, top coach and service expert, Craig Bryant, explains how to get more spin on your serves.
Having spinny serves will help you put your opponent under more pressure, make mistakes or give weaker return of serves.
In the video, Craig shows how to generate spin using your forearm and wrist. He demonstrates how to generate backspin, sidespin and topspin and crucially how to generate MORE backspin, sidespin and topspin.
Brush + wrist + racket speed = SPIN

Fo you know sudarshan tambe
@@Benzyl_Penoxide me too
Copied comment
The explanations were good but it would have me helpful if you could have zoomed in more to his hands while he was serving.. Thanks
Bhak
Bhk.
Damn I want to like this comment so badly lol
Add slow motion also.
Nice, add zoom + slow motion, please.
The advice to practise first by using only the forearm motion, and only after by adding the wrist, immediately and drastically improved my heavy backspin. Thank you!
Thanks now i always beat my friends and they blame wind😂
ScrippyZxLive stop playing with regards this is an indoor sport.
Thilak Salian what do you mean
@@ABL861 I believe he said "stop playing with retards"
Just dont play outside
@@tabletennisclips6223 I love playing outside in the park with friends, with some music, in the sun... you meet a lot of nice and chill people and its a lot of fun. of course the conditions aren't "tournament conditions", but everything else is great!
So far this is the clearest demonstration of racket movement during served. My eyeballs almost pop out watching even slowmos of other videos but I could never catch the strokes. Thanks bunch.
Great man!
This one is massively relevant for what I'm working on with serves. The slo-mo is fabulous, and his explanations are crystal clear. Well done!
I have been trying to learn good spin serves for a very long time, thank you.
6:04 is summery
4:58 used in doubles mostly.
It was a very instructive video. Congratulations, Mr. Tom.
Wow , what a great serve . I want to learn to improve . Thank you
You guys are super star i like what you are doing for us . Thank you from heart to heart
Great video, thanks a lot!
Great series is back
Thank you! I might get in some sneaky practice while my 12yo son is at school tomorrow. Beating the little bugger is getting harder and harder - so your advice is much appreciated! I hope he doesn't discover your channel... Cheers from Sydney - Dave ;-)
Most wholesome comment ever
did you start to beat him?
@@sixfcp5385 I'd say I'm about 60/40 win/lose to the young lad. He's now 13 and is beating me regularly at golf (I'm a low handicapper, but he is lower), he is beating me about 30% of the time at tennis (I played A grade comp tennis for many years) and now to really put the knife in, he annihilates me in cross country running (I ran long distance at state level when I was younger and competitively since then). I knew the time would come but honestly, not this soon! At least I can still get him at table tennis - for now!
Are you dealing with the same tortous problem as me (accepting my physical decline)? 🙂
@@deldridg how old are you yourself?
@@motianton How about mid bloody fifties!! Not quite one foot in the grave yet...
gonna try these tips. the video was CLEAR
Video was super helpful. Thanks!
Probably the easiest tutorial and best explanation regarding spins.
Very good video to watch for learning about the types of SPIN and how to do it.
Thanks for very important training
thank you because of you I mastered learnt spinning in service
Great tips indeed. Will take me awhile, if ever, before i get to serve in similar way. 😊
Your videos are best! Keep up the good work.
Thanks for watching!
@@TomLodziak thanks papi
very gud tips to improve spin as a tt player this is one of the best instructional videos.
Hey Tom, I want to use a few clips from this video in my video on the physics behind spin. I will of course credit the shots accordingly. Is this cool? Great vid ;)
Excellent tips! Thanks!
these craig bryant vids are GENIUS!!!! thank you
Thank you 😁
Perfect discribtion…thanks from the heart for both of you
Amazing tips. Thank you
Thank you for such usefull tips. I will try it
Thanks Tom. But you can understand where I am coming from. I have always struggled with my services as I toss the ball vertically and then move my body to get some spin- not easy. I always felt bad that I cannot serve like people in the videos. I know I am not as good but have good intentions to emulate the big gunsin my very smalll way- I will try and see if I can toss the ball high towards me- its gonna be a new toss
This is helpful🏓 thank you guys
This is FANTASTIC! 👏 👏 👏
my family members have no clue what is about to come >:)
Hahaha you little devious kid
Welldone Tom n your partner, I love his side spin,very effective
Thanks i have learned a lot
Great teacher.
This is an excellent video.
Thank you guys
Thank you Craig Bryant this is very effective to me.. Please upload more videos so I can improve my game... Thank you very much

A new video is coming out each month, on a different aspect of serving. Subscribe to Tim’s channel and you’ll be notified when they’re released 👍
Great video team! Please do one on chop block and how to handle the chop block.
Here's a video we made last year on the chop block: czcams.com/video/SjJ49BXh5Mk/video.html
Thanks very much for your helping video!
I love the spin effects!
Have a great game!
Forehand loop tutorials for intermediate player is a musttttt.. When can we expect
I will try to record something in the next few months. It's on the list!

Yes, should be able to make a video about that. I'll add to my list.
great video,thanks
Excellent!
In video for backspin u told to make contact at top of bat
But ..when I saw your backspin serve in slow motion every time the contact was by lower part of bat how do you explain this
I've always doing the side spin from the side of the ball, but in this video he did it from the bottom. After giving some thought about it, I think brushing from side of the ball gives more trouble because the other player almost exclusively touch the ball vertically and it will lead the ball to the sides of the table upon touching, whereas brushing from the bottom of the ball does make the ball going to side of the table upon landing on the table before getting to the other player. IMHO, side brushing is more threatening in most scenarios. What do you think?
i do the same, but I disagree with your conclusions for 2 reasons:
1. side spin is side spin, now matter how you achieve it. The ball will also "pop sideways" a bit when doing it as shown in the video, but you always get some back spin with it, which can be nice.
2. the ball jumping to the side on the table is not necessarily a good thing. While it makes it harder to position for the ball overall, it also makes the sidespin much easier to read and less deceptive, so it's easier to adjust racket angle.
There’s this guy in my town his name is Al Ferraiz he use to tell me he put so much spin that he created tornadoes and hurricanes not God!!
Lmao
Ha imagine.
Tried it and I could instantly see the spin
Killer service sir 😯😯😯
another great video
Thank you 👍
分かりやすい！
knee how!
I’m am sad because my school cancelled sport because it was wet on the grass and it dosent even effect my sport! I am in a ping pong team and I don’t even get to play sport :( so I wanted to practice new serves for ping pong and this vid helped meh
You have a ping pong team at school?
:( that's bad luck
excellent
Also, glad to address wrist & brushing. this makes sense. want to know the role of the forearm tho (this wasnt mentioned at all). is it as important than the wrist, more important? less important? i ask because i still struggle to get "really good" backspin from my serves, even w/ brushing and wrist. a local coach said i needed to use more forearm...hence the question.
Good question. It depends which serve you are doing, but there will always be a combination of wrist, forearm and elbow. Your wrist is very important when serving backspin, but you do need some forearm to add some forward acceleration. If you are not getting much backspin on the serve, it may be because there is not enough speed + brush when contacting the ball. You may find it easier to serve a little deeper initially. This forces you to accelerate more and use more forearm. Then when you are satisfied you generating more backspin, you can then try making the serve shorter.
A video on use short pips will also be helpful...can we expect this??
short pimples with speed glue it the best for touch close to the net like tsp spectol double fish 830 830 a even speed glue with long pimples can be effective i have tried both
Good video. A close-up shot at hand moment and contact with bat would have been a lot helpful.
Gr8 vid tom as always... About serving short with spin (which i struggle with!)... am i initially aiming anywhere in particular on my side of the table? Also do we noticeably hit the ball 'softer' or does this simply make the serve too slow and therefore more likely to be attacked? (this has been my experience!) Cheers mate
Actually, I think you do have a very good short side-backspin serve already. Hopefully Craig with give an answer to this one. For me, sometimes I try to really hack the ball, but keep the first bounce closer to my end of the table, so the ball just dips over the net. Then the serve still has plenty of backspin but is short and hard to attack. We have a video on service length next month.
Cheers mate.... looking forward 2 it......
Thank you
Definitely helps
Good
Thank you ! 😊
Once understood, it is not difficult to counter the spin in the serve at all. Essentially there are only 4 serves, Top spin, Back spin, two sideway spins, and that is all. Once understood how to counter the spin, one can almost always put the ball back on table, and challenge is to keep it as close to the net as possible and also on to the back hand side of the table, (assuming that most people have good forehand top spin and not so good with back hand). These are basics that these coaches have taught here in the video, none the less excellent video, thanks.
You have no idea, a pro would just bamboozle you seriously. You would seriously think a back spin serve is coming to have it kick over your head, the art is in disguising the serve, not the serve itself.
That little flick of the wrist at the end, can happen so quickly, while their brushing backspin pro's can actually flick a forward spin whilst still moving in the backspin direction. Sounds like you're a little below my level, you should try this wrist lick flick, whilst brushing, you might learn something.
Great video👌🏻 please show how to respond to these servs too…
Which rubber and blade do you have sir?
Это супер ! Спасибо .🖐

Wonderful mr
6:04 is summary
Hi! Great content! I would like to ask what bat are you recommanding? Im an intermediate player, looking to advance my game. Thank you!
Custom one
Very nice
Tnx v much!
I practice serving back spin balls that go almost off the table and then roll back to the net. This way know they have maximum energy, both translational and rotational. Brushing is important to get the right ratio of backspin to speed. If there isn't enough backspin the ball will roll off the end of the table. So much must be precise. The height of the toss, where contact is made with the ball, where the ball lands on your side of the table. All of this must be right to get the ball to almost roll off the table and come back to the net. The next trick is to fool the opponent because good one will catch on.
I like when you serve look so serious
Tnx,Tom & Craig!
thanks valdinirg kebab

spin this bussy
This spin ball has long been used / practiced in Indonesia, I have often seen children aged 10 years using this method not only when serving the ball, even often used to hit the ball attack from the opponent.😁
What kind of blade and rubber ?
I keep try and practice but under spin the ball not coming back.any tricks for under spin ?
