I have the opposite problem. I have a hard time with my forehand, there appears to be to many ways to swing. With the backhand it just feels like there's so much better feeling. My humble request is to do this style of video for the forehand, these videos are gold.

Seth, you have no idea how badly i needed this. Ive been looking for ways to improve my backhand loop for weeks now. This video is an eyeopener on so many levels. Heading into training with it later. Thanks for all the passion and effort you put into your content! We keep grinding, cheers!

A lot of love has gone into this video. Thank you!

Exceptionally good! I will be coming back to this video again and again.

Super tutorial. Very detailed

What an excellent teacher you are! 👏 👍

13:30 is the best learning point of the whole video. and every player should adopt this mindset for every stroke, forehand backhand pushes serves etc. BRAVO you're incredible Seth!

cant wait to use some improvements of my bh loop that you've shown here, thanks A LOT !

Excellent videos, I have been using KZfaq to improve my techniques, your videos are the most effective, thanks and please keep doing them

This is GOLD. Thank you so much for the effort you have gone to. This video, like so many of yours, is very beneficial.

Best video on backhand technique on youtube, thank you Seth

Helpful video as usual; thanks indeed.

Excellent work !

this is so awesome. thank you.

Amazingly good! Integrate and consolidate a lot of what I have been learning from my coach and my self-exploration of the full suite of techniques. Super thanks from Australia!

Thank you for the tutorial! Will put into practice, comp is coming soon.

Great stuff. Thanks a lot

Thanks so much Seth!!! The video was GREAT!!! I think I've been on the right track for the most part so it was awesome to get positive reinforcement and there was some wonderful new info in there as well. Also, I built a return board several months ago and have been using it with my BH for the last month or two. I agree it really does seem to help to have to adjust to what I'm putting on the ball.

Yes, this instruction came off very well. Many helpful tips/drills and advice to improve the backhand.

Vielen Dank aus Deutschland. Dank deiner Videos kann ich es unseren Kindern im Jugendtraining sehr viel leichter erklären. Sobald sie die Technik verstanden haben und richtig ausführen, spielen sie gleich ein zwei Level höher. Vielen Dank für deine umfangreiche Arbeit im Namen aller Jugendtrainer denen deine Videos geholfen haben. Old Nicenec

Thank you for the video! ❤

Great video champ 👌🏻

Awesome as always. Many thanks

Hello Seth, great video as always. Very gut structured and presented.

Very detailed and comprehensive, I wish you can produce more tutorial video in the future!

I loved this video. It was so detailed and so well explained. Fantastic.

Hi Seth! I love your long videos. Most of the info of TT I consume are from you and Ti Long :) There is a topic that nobody is talking about that would be nice for you to cover in one of your videos. This topic would be ball prediction. Right now I have a fairly good technique overall, but my main failures come from this prediction. And it's quite a deep topic, as the ball arcs differently, bounces higher, lower or horizontally depending on speed, spin, sidespin, dead... And it's quite difficult to predict. It's useful also for the return, because sometimes it's difficult to see the stroke of the serve, but you can see the way the ball moves and predict its spin, speed, and most importantly the bounce and position yourself adequately. Thanks for your amazing work!

Excellent video, one of your best. Thank you very much.

Thank you for taking the time to make this!

Very nice. Thank you

Really nice video! Well organized, simply put and clearly explained. Strongly recommended!

Great video Seth love it!!!

I love this video! Thank you very much. I will share it at my club and hope that these different ideas will help my students to get a solid backhand loop in time. Tks!

Seth, there are tons of pieces of advice in this video, and well-pondered images to illustrate them (e.g., the freesbee, the fishing rod). Besides being a great player, you are such an effective pedagogue. Many thanks!

Excellent, thanks a lot for your video, I found a lot of information that you mentioned in the video, because I some time recognized and forgot, now you remind it for me.

Parabéns!!!! Melhor video explicativo para Backhand, você é um ótimo instrutor, me infique quais borrachas devo comprar com baixo custo, para backhand e forehand?

u r awesome ... salute

Your Videos are great

oooo man you are the best, I learn so quick from your tutorials. I'm a bit sad that I FOUND you just few weeks ago( better late than never), im gonna recoman your channel to everyone, thank you.

I went back to watching this video and I’ll watch the FH too and other videos. A light bulb just turned on and I learned how to feel the ball and grab it on contact at the same time putting a little grip pressure to feel the pull of the rubber/sponge. Thank you. This video explains well when to start moving the wrist during the stroke ei when you feel the ball contact. 👍

Every time I recheck this video I find it just so helpful. Actually every video you make ist just extremely good

Thanks!

thank you very much for the explanation, very detailed so it helps me understand better. your work is very good. I wish your content success and keep working, and please let me know your setup.

Amazing video!

I am a trainer and I agree in every point, thanks for your great work!

It's a high quality video. Good technique explanation

Thanks Seth, there is a lot of content here that will take time to absorb.

Thanks man, especially for the dead ball tips. I'm gonna practice that tomorrow :D

amazing video

Its a good idea you put this in one big video , as a forehand oriented player , thank you so much

I like this video even before I watched it. That’s just how good your content is.

Love this video

You are the best who provided detailed educational programs in the game of table tennis. Thank you from the Republic of Yemen

Really some of the best table tennis content on youtube! Keep it up man. A video suggestion of me would be a basic tutorial for a pendulum serve (pure backspin, side-backspin, side-topspin), without any fancy stuff like fake motions. Also with like the basic serving posture and maybe some tactics to go with a pendulum serve (for example short heavy backspin or empty serve, ...). I dont really know how tight to hold the racket or how to get good wrist acceleration and brush on the ball. Especially with the side-topspin i cant seem to get a good amount of spin in my serve (i dont really understand the mechanics of side-topspin serve) and i cant seem to do a good no spin serve where the opponent doesnt immediately knows its empty.

#1 youtube video on the backhand now! :D. My best takeaways: 1. the 'punch' had no idea about this. 2. high - high rather than low to high, or mid-mid method. 3. from another video, waiting for a high ball to drop before doing the back hand loop this helped me massively in my games. Suggested missing bits in the video. + I wonder how does someone move leftward in a hurry since most instructional videos are about moving rightward for the crossover foot work , but no-one talks about how to move extreme left when someone returns wide with the backhand. What do you do, when someone returns it to wide backhand, and no time to move Left what do you do?

Awesome video Seth, from start to end! Funny you should mention the return board: I have bought one on E-bay two months ago and I have been using it non-stop ever since to perfect my BH loop (also, in part, due to switching to an outer ZLC blade from an inner carbon blade). It is also great to simulate some of the typical training drills (including pivots, and FH/BH transitions). The BH loop is one of my best shots, but it has always been less consistent than my FH (which, instead, I had to build from the ground up and through gruelling, countless hours of training). The board has helped me improve controlling the loop and also understanding how my spin gets back to me after a "block". This is also helping ingrain to better prepare for a transition closer or further away from the table in response to my own shot (i.e., if I load the shot more I should expect a longer/faster ball coming back to me and hence adjust accordingly, etc.).

Very good video, well done!!! My son want to practice his backhand loop, and it is good help. and i will block for 20 to 60min.lol

well done!

First video of yours I’m watching. Terrific stuff. Found you via sub Reddit

Another high quality video from the best TT channel out there! Some golden tips for me were: 1) how to use the loop on a no-spin/pips ball; 2) practicing random loops like a high BH loop to improve feeling 3) the skill chart at 14:15 (you definitely have an engineer's mindset of breaking down things down logically into components and sub-components); 4) the value of a return board And a request: could you please upload a session of you using your return board for BH practice as you described where you varied depth and placement. I recently bought one but have used it mainly for my forehand and was having trouble generating enough pace to use it consistently with my backhand.

Very nice tips. Since I'm struggling against dead balls for a while, I'll try implement some of those.

very nice vlog
