Awesome video. So many great shots that won't show up elsewhere. Rocking.

I think I may have to make a choice between FZD's under the net construction roller and Jakub Dyjas's between the leg shot.

Sick footage. Great job putting this together Dan!!!!

Switching hands and playing around the net is just sick!
FZD's roller is beautiful but nothing special - you can see such things from time to time in the clubs that's why I think #8 is the best :)

That is the one that got my vote. Crazy. The spin on that ball is a mind bender.

That fake and spin is so technical. He kinda a got into forehand attack mode and decided '**** it', let me spice it up. On the first look it looks doable, but the kind of fitness, technique and feeling is not everyone's cup of tea. I also really like how they hook it so close to the ground.

I wouldn't deny it, I have tried to impress girls at party with this trick, lets say that didn't really go as expected.

My respects to Jakub to pulling that off at game point

At 2-0, 10-4?

I know, the behind the back shot had a big impact on that match. But it is not my kind of best shot. I don't know why. But the shot by Dyjas, to me is just awesome and I feel like there is a higher degree of difficulty to it. Sure it came at a point in the match where Dyjas could take some risks.

Personally I also think that flip by Waldner is wild. The roller by FZD is ridiculous. The diving BH around the net is spectacular. I feel like I could have voted for almost any of the shots in the video. But the Dyjas shot captivates my imagination in a way that few shots could. The idea that that shot was even possible, to me, is crazy.

And I definitely love the way Dyjas plays and am looking forward to watching him rise in the world rankings.

Before watching the video I wanted to vote for FZD´s roller..
But already the first video changed my mind! :D
But then, what on earth can beat swap hands around the net shot???
Maybe some crazy behind the back around the net roller, lol..
But that is something I didnt see yet, so I vote for number 8!

My vote is Jan-Ove. Pulling such a shot in serious match against a way younger player just deserves my respect!

So true! What I love about the occassion is how it was his last professional match! Waldner started out his table tennis career at that club and retired there and pulled off a shot we can only dream of! How does he do it!
