  • In this video we’re looking at how to recover and where to recover to.
    This area of the game is often neglected and it’s a pretty quick fix, if you’re not already doing this. So, it’s a great way to improve your game and your dominance in the points, without having to commit to a significant amount of training.
    In the video I’m demonstrating these topics of Recovery:
    - What’s best for you
    - Recovering from angles and distances
    - Recovering from spin
    I hope you enjoy this one and find it useful too 😁

    As a former elite player I appreciate the attention to details. Most points are won on 3 and 4. The setup is for that is probably the most important. Recovery is key.

    Another really helpful video. I can speak from personal experience that having 1-2-1 coaching from Craig rapidly improves one’s serving ability. He has a fantastic understanding of the game and obviously he’s known as the serve guy for good reason but knowing what to do after is invaluable so this video is just what I needed. Craig, any thoughts on serving in doubles? Doubles play greatly reduces one’s options for placement so what do you find works best? I hope I try to serve a ball that gets my partners strength into play for the return but not everyone likes doubles or understands the tactics.

    • @TheTableTennisServiceGuy
      @TheTableTennisServiceGuy  Před 6 měsíci +2

    • @zeebot1
      @zeebot1 Před 6 měsíci

      THIS! I also struggle a lot with doubles: I miss my serves (as a right handed player) way too often, when I have to serve diagonally from the forehand side.
      Additionally I have no clue about the correct footwork and where to go when in doubles. It's really confusing a lot of times.

    That was the video that helped me up my service game significantly just by watching it. Tried it, worked, just brilliant.
    For me personally, this is incredibly helpful, as my game is basically only service plus 3rd ball attack. Could you make a video on how to deal with these "obscure"/"unlikely" returns? For example, I have a player that is asking constantly for my advice on how to deal with my returns, but I can't give any other than: "... yeah, I don't know... just be prepared for it, I guess?". Turns out that A) I'm a terrible coach, and B) it seems like chop blocking long, fast and short topspin serves is NOT the usual move, players tend to go for - at least at my level (~1420). I also see players struggle a lot when it comes to short returns that go opposite to their imparted sidespin. Can you make a video covering those kinds of returns? I would imagine a fair few more players struggling with these kinds of returns

    Interesting, I knew that you have to adapt your serve to the opponent's type of game, i.e. confuse him and move him from his preferred attack position, but I never thought that a forehand (backhand) player has a habit to return the serve in a specific area. 👀💪

    Hi Craig do u have any tips on quickly changing the grip from the pinch serving grip to the shakehand grip for playing? I usually struggle with that and most of the time I have to use my other hand immediately to help change the grip without me accidentally dropping the racket 😅

    • @TheTableTennisServiceGuy
      @TheTableTennisServiceGuy  Před 5 měsíci

      Important to try and find a service grip that allows you to change back to your playing grip. Rather than picking a grip and then learning to change. Does that make sense?

    Really good video thank you. That long and fast tip is a flaw in my game I never realised I had! Do you have any tips on making faults in serves? I make so many I have a reputation in my team for choking when making serves... I think it is lack of consistency + stress and rushing. I do try to avoid it but the more I try the worse it seems to get.
    I end up doing things like:
    Forehand backspin > swing and miss ball completely, ball goes under the table, or ball bounces too close to the net and hits the net.
    Please do you have any tips?

    • @TheTableTennisServiceGuy

  • @zenzero27771
    @zenzero27771 Před 6 měsíci +3

    Thanks, Craig, great video. When I serve normal sidespin pendulum to the left of my opponent, I usually receive a semi-long ball with sidespin (both right or left spin) at my left wide backhand side. This return should be attacked by myself with a backhand flip or topspin, but I tend to make a lot of mistakes when I try to attack this way, and when I just push to my opponent I receive a fast topspin attack and the point is over. Any suggestion for dealing with this receive? Thanks a lot. Marco from Italy.

    • @TheTableTennisServiceGuy
      @TheTableTennisServiceGuy  Před 6 měsíci +2

      It's hard to give specific advice without seeing the issue but making sure you're not making contact to the left of your body (try to get your body behind the shot). Try to deal with the side spin return by altering your aim down the line, try to avoid dealing with the spin by opening your wrist too much, it can sometimes make things more complex. Hope that helps.

  • @Blackain66
    @Blackain66 Před 6 měsíci +1

    solid tips, mostly basic but nice with the anticipation
    one key-part that is missing is the drifting direction of side-spin serves when they come back to you and you wanna 3rd ball attack thou
    people wonder why ma-long is making the pendulum when he wants to attack with his forehand and think that the spin would not be ideal for it since the oponent tends to play it into his backhand corner but the important factor is the drift of the ball: when the pendulum serve is returned the ball drifts to your right side making it easy for a forehand attack unlike the reverse pendulum or backhand serve which drifts to your left side and right into your elbow when u wanna forhand attack and this can make you fail your 3rd ball forehand topspin if ur not careful and not stepping around enough leaving enough room
    this is why a pendulum is good for forehand 3rd ball attack and a reverse/bh/hook is suited better for a backhand attack (thats why u see darko jorgic use mostly backhand serves)
