Can Zhang Jike Fix My Backhand Flick In 7 Days?

[Dan]

Hey guys!

This one was pretty surreal 😅

I’ve always wanted to improve my backhand flick, so we somehow managed to get Zhang Jike himself involved in our latest challenge!

I sent Zhang Jike my flick at the start of the week and he sent a video back rating it and giving me his key tips to improve. I then had 7 days to work on everything he said using the PONGBOT OMNI S Pro, before sending my flick back to him for a final rating!

Really happy with how this one turned out. Would love to know what you guys think!

We’ve got two more Zhang Jike videos coming soon as well, a full coaching session and a podcast with the main man! 🏓🔥

A massive thanks to Zhang Jike and PONGBOT for making this incredible collaboration possible! 🙌 🤖 Check out PONGBOT here: https://store.pongbotsports.com/products/omni-s-series?sca_ref=11427958.8UNAeqzFVaQ 🔥

Looks great, but you still did not have that soft relaxed wrist at the end of backswing like ZJK and most pros.

Great stuff Dan, you want to go and see Korbel he will sort you right out! Haha (the real pioneer) 🤪

unfortunately Pongbot product placement prevents other tech use like spinsight that would give a lot of extra feedback on shot improvement

Yeah I analysed his technique loads, absolutely fascinating how relaxed ZJK is on the flick whilst still getting tons of quality on the ball.

I think that relaxation was due to the tense of the core muscle and breathe in, not just by the wrist itself. And it is hard to just see and learn from the outside movement.

Yeah agreed. I think he’s using a lot more of his body and core in the shot than I realised.
