Introduction to my YT Channel - Help me Improve

Hey guys

I started a YT channel on wich I am going to upload trainings videos, matchplays and maybe vlogs. However i am very new to the whole YT stuff and also to tt as i am playing for one and a half years now. So dont expect too much

My idea is too monitor the growth of my tt skills and also that of my hair.

I would really appreciate it if you guys would check out my videos and give me advice

(before the Goon Squad takes them down)

Sofar I uploaded some drills and a hasty serve video.

Also advice concering filming tt, angels, cameras etc is very welcome.

With best regards
Boogar

Its really impressive to see your technique with only 1.5 years of work.
I am sure you have a very good coach , looking at your footwork.
I guess you will need to work on your short game , not sure if robot is the way to go for that , and serve . Again receive is the most difficult part of the game which can be only really be practiced in match play.

All I can say is keep it up and looking forward to see more from your channel.

Thank you very much for your comment

Jea it was kinda akward to play short game with the robot. I mostly struggle with the forehandflick and lose too many easy points on it. I am going to upload some exercises with my trainings partner soon ( he is sick atm)
As it is now i have no coach, i learned everything from YT videos. I would really like some coaching tho. However i dont have the money for it.

As soon as I read "and also that of my hair", I knew someone would post something like this.

are you able to get your robot to throw it lower? I only saw the:
"Backhand Forehand Drill alternate angel"
Strokes look great for someone only playing 1.5 years but balls at the height your robot is throwing you wont come in game often and it might be teaching you that you can stand pretty high during your strokes. you never have to get too low on them so that might be an issue for games. I'd love to see how you play in games, you look fantastic for only 1.5 years and self taught too!

Thanks for the feedback! Jea it dawned on me aswell, but when i tried to get a lower throw the balls just flew over the table. I need to do some more experimenting on that.

I will try to get some more footage in todays training

I watched the video too, am always looking to improve. Subscribed too. Looking forward to seeing more videos.

Your room is an interesting and bright color. I notice items like wall color and the effect on seeing the ball. That green color should work great with an orange ball.

Cool

Jea would be great, however i am using celluoid balls with the robot. Because there arent any orange plastic balls yet.
Interesting fact: I had two new plastic balls in the robot, for example in the topspin off backspin session the plastic balls had much less speed and spin and were easier to play back. However i found them harder to control.
And i have played alot with plastic balls sofar and only a few times with celluoid.

Okay i am back with some Matchplays! They are terrible xD and im not happy with the angel of filimg, gotta figure out something different next time.

Here the first game:

Third one:

Hmmmmm .... here is the list

:

1. You are not bending your knees
2. The serves are too high
3. You are blocking too far in front of you
4. you are not trying to come back to your original position and sometimes ending up playing backhands from the forehand side.
5. your form in your loops is completely breaking down when you are playing vis-a-vis when you are practicing against the robot.

NextLevel · May 12, 2016

Put the camera on the right corner if you are both right handed players as you will both be playing forehands with your right hand and will have your back mostly on the backhand side for shots and serves (left side of the table) and will not block most of your shots from the camera - if you are both lefties, put in the left corner - if there is a mix, make a call.

Good points thank you!
I will upload more matchplays with better angels to get a more wellrounded picture. I have to say i was very nervous because of the camera

Boogar · May 12, 2016

Do you guys also have those highs and lows? For example i think im playing worse than like 3 months ago. It may be because i try out new stuff and then change little things that disrupt everything... hmm

I'm pretty sure MOST of these issues are from his robot throwing the ball so high to him. Bending knees is nothing he's ever had to do with the bot. blocking in front of him because the timing of higher balls on the bot is different. and the breaking down against real balls vs the bot's high ones are all from the bot throwing the balls too high, Among other reasons.

I personally found the matches pretty good and I think OP is on the right track. Would like to see him play better players so he can struggle a little more.

Shuki · May 13, 2016

Agree with NL on you being on the right track. Something great you do is stay on your toes ready to move after your stroke. It's clear with your light bounces that you're actually prepared for a return on your attack which is good. But I would love to see you on your toes before your stroke too! I only really see the bouncing after your first stroke.

Also since you already do the light bouncing, you should instead of bouncing straight up and down, bounce lightly side to side (practicing the body transfer that you'd do on your strokes).
