Vladimir Samsonov, retired from table tennis . Perhaps one of the greatest servant to the game and his country. He had one of the most legal serve and was the best controller of the game. Truly amazing player and the Chinese rightly called him the Tai-Chi master meaning the perfect mix of attacking and defensive characters.
Also Vladimir Samsonov has the second highest titles by a player. He is only behind Ma Long.
dude, he's retired from competitons, he's still a table tennis PRO, that is, making MONEY from table tennis
Samsonov has the most legal service in table tennis ever.
yep!
Is that sarcasm?
shogrran damn, yeah!
Timo does
What does that mean: "the most legal service"?
After Waldner Samsonov is one of the biggest magicans in TT. So much feeling for the ball. Unbelievable
Samsonov is a legend. He makes incredibly hard shots/block/counters looks so easy and smooth. Unique player.
Yes and I want to know how
Великолепен Самсонов!
So calm and seemingly easy yet effective and elegant. So much technique and no hurry at all - looks like he controls everything. Yet it’s just a compilation Samsonov is living legend doubtless.
1:51 he saved an edge ball!
The hell? I call haxx
That was a great reflex!
40 years of age and still at the top of his game. His strokes especially the backhand push and strokes are some of the cleanest that the table tennis world has ever seen simplay samsonov
He always looks extremely slow and sluggish, but he returns with such ease and precision and so much control.
I've seen a compilation of this sort for most Chinese players and was desperate for one on Samsonov. As someone already commented, after Jan Ove Waldner, Vladi is the best trickster and a magician the table tennis World has seen. At his age (43, currently), being able face off against the quality of Chinese players and players like Ovtcharov(against whom he almost won the 2019 Europe Top 16 Cup) is simply amazing.
He is one of the legends to have played the game and in a generation where most people idolize Chinese players, I am proud to admit that I idolize Vladi and I hope to play like him one day.
#Vladiisthebest
Samsonov, Waldner and Boll, the best of Europe from all time!
How about Jan-Mi.Save and Maze?
1 j'o waldner 2 j.persson 3 s.bengtsson all swedes, Boll and Samsonov are welcome to top 3 when they found a wttc title.
Persson is eaqually as superior at no2 spot as waldner is at no1 spot.,its a long gap to no3
Dimitrij Ovcharov?
@@nicklasandersson5606 I suppose Gatien is better than bengtsson.
Thank you so much, I've been waiting for this one quite a while, Thanks!
He is really a legend !
Samsonov's sense of the moment of surprise is unbelievable (and also still more rarely visible in table tennis imho). Respect for such an initiative play.
Incredible material as always !
I cannot believe he is my mom's age but still going strong. But him being the number 1 player from Belarus for so many years is not a proud fact, but poor new generation quality players in Europe.
If he was from Asia, he would have been muscled out from the top league by younger players. But alas..
Rosh Louis He is from Belarus
Игорь Данилович Ops a silly mistake. Thanks.
Rosh Louis ok
Rosh Louis i
My favorite player!! Thank you Top 8 TT !!
THE TSAR ^^ !
He is my favourite player. Thanks to him I love table tennis.
These compilations keep getting better, keep it up.
I have been waiting so long for your next video. Awesome video as always. :-)
Everything about the guy is intimidating. His face, his size, his name, and of course his game.
Can't believe he's 40 years old and can still match against the Chinese
JO Walnder also.
I don't understand what happens to a player if he turns 40? Why is it assumed that by 40 a player is finished? Its all about being fit and practicing hard enough. You can be as competitive as a 20-25 yr old player.
@@MrUtoobee your body starts to slow down at around 34-36 so someone lasting for 4 years more is amazing
@@salmon2518 I don't agree with that completely. That might be natural stuff, but not when you put the right practice and effort to keep yourself fit, and also samsonov's game is not hard on his body unlike someone like ma long or fan zhendong.
@@MrUtoobee it doesnt matter how fit you try to be you age, your muscles dont die and regrow they overtime cant do well on their own ofcourse there are people that are really athelete at 40s some people can last longer then usual just because of luck and genetics its just an average estemate on when your body slows down
My own dad is about 47 and works as a builder and is quiet fit i dont say you must be worse at 36 its just the average estimate
Не интересуюсь настольным теннисном, но всегда казалось, что с азиатами нереально конкурировать, но этот мужик доказал что можно, красавчик!
really like the slow motion shots - keep them coming
Every movement, every shot, every serve, every attack, every block, is just so PERFECTLY executed and smooth, JUST HOW HARD do you gotta train to achieve this touch, jesus. BRAVO!
красавец -отличный теннисист
I miss him already. I miss this style of play. Almost every player now is more power-power-power-fastball-fastball-fast-ball.
great player, clean style, a lot of variety
Awesome vid dude!
no wonder he's a legend!
Vladi the BEST!!!!
👊✊
tt can look so easy and elegant. thx, vladimir.
If everyone had longass legs and was 1.89 like him,TT would be easy and elegant for everyone.
Bravo! Великолепен!
Legend!
Крассавец Володька!!!
proud of living in Belarus ❤️💚
Such amazing skills!
Жыве Беларусь)
Wow. He makes it look so effortless
He's such a fantastic legend.
Vladimir "Elegant Giant" Samsonov :)
Какой же он классный мастер!!! 🎉
Seems like his centre of gravity and his crossover point is wherever he wants it to be
2019 and still here. 43 years old
Samsonov, your mother! great game, nice to watch this video. Like the maner of your game.
Desde o ano de 1998, que ouvi falar de Samsonov, já era fã dele na época. Sou fã dele até hoje!
Tenho raquetes da marca Thibar com o nome dele.
Joga muito!
Cool!
Here we are in 2019 and Samsonov is still top 25 in world.
He and Oh Sang Eun share similar styles and I like both of them.
Such a beautiful sport
my trainer who was an olympic dutch player said that i am gonna be a player like Samsonov. hard on my way. what a compliment😍
Мощный прямолинейный стиль. Это очень круто!
brilliant
samsonov..a big name in TT..become a legend

So satisfying
Великий! И нехер спорить
Sam is a real gentleman.
Best!
Император настольного тенниса!
He is my idol !
Сколько ж трудов на тренировках!
Владимир ты красавчик! Отлично защищался и китайцев побеждал! :)
Nice reccomend
Finally, someone who understands placement of the ball. Until now, i was wondering why players don't use opponent's position as an advantage.
it is an advantage..but some don't do it as it connotes "uncivilized" game play, but I use it all the time, as i don't smash too often :)
Absolutely. Its all about angles and impacting opponent's position. That's why chops, jabs and pushes are vital part of the game and its not limited to side spins or top spins and smashes.
1:33 what a point
Самсонов ТОП!!!!
great!! 그는 전설이다 그와 함께 경기햇던 사람들이 국가대표 감독을 한지도 오래되었는데 그는 아직도 현역선수이다 대단한 자기관리이다
lord of control
Waldner is the lord of control.
of course, Waldner is a legend, i meant, in the modern table tennis i didn t see someone who can manage all the strokes like Vlad.
Невозмутимое лицо, прекрасная игра
Most elegant player... Seems to have so much time
4:28 unbelievable
В свои годы номер один
4:58 first time I have ever seen an ace in table tennis.
Waldner did that against Samsonov among many others.
My best all round player in the world !!
