I have the extreme footwork and explosive power dvds. I must say that they are indeed very very good.

Thanks For the Reply!
i have one question,does the Xtreme Footwork DVD really help in footwork?
i have all my strokes down and they are pretty good i would say..but my footwork sucks
while playing i get upset with myself because i find my self "dragging" or "sliding"
my other leg around while moving with my opposite leg.
i watched the trailer thing and it looks like exercises to help with footwork
but can you really apply them in real matches? im just a kid (15 years old) so
i was wondering should i get it and learn? because it pretty expensive for me
or should i just watch videos of Xu Xin and Ryu Seung Min etc..?
i really cant find any videos online that teach footwork.
Thanks! im sorry if its kinda long to read what i just wrote!

Watch the 'how to improve footwork' thread on this forum - it has some great exercises and videos for footwork

The DVD's mostly contain exercises to improve your body strength and your game. So they are suitable for any level and age of player (the strength one maybe not always for young players). But the footwork exercises are just routines you can try to imply in your own practise sessions, to improve your footwork over the course of a couple of months maybe. I think trying to copy Ryu or Xu is a step too far

Yea haha but what is more important for them is the enormous legs that make the footwork possible

It'll take time to improve on footwork, but be patient and u will benefit a lot in the long run

Good luck!

About the footwork dvds, I have to say it does help. After a few sessions, you'll feel that you're lighter on your feet, and getting into positions are much easier.

VenusCarboKev · Jan 3, 2012

Oh,Ok thanks!

VenusCarboKev · Jan 3, 2012

umm what do you guys think of this? this is the sneak peek for dynamictabletennis's backhandloop dvd

should i try it out or would i be better off getting the one by tabletennismaster?
does it look good to you guys? im sorry i cant really tell
if he is very good or if he is just intermediate because i want to get the one which is better

VenusCarboKev · Jan 3, 2012

here is the sneak peek for the table tennis master's backhand loop dvd

which one looks better to you guys? not the videoquality but
the teaching-learning quality

azlan · Jan 3, 2012

The Dynamictabletennis video I think it's rather good for beginners and intermediate players. It has good fundamentals, but I don't advice it for advance and experts. It has basic tactics and basic BH that uses only arm and loads of wrist actions, which don't get me wrong, they are very sound and well executed.

In the TTMaster video, it looks like a more advance BH, which involves the torque of the body to produce more spin and speed. But then, it's no point learning from this video if you don't have the fundamentals as shown from the Dynamictabletennis video.

VenusCarboKev · Jan 3, 2012

oh,thanks for the explanation..maybe ill try take a video
of me tomorrow and upload it then ill ask which one i should get

i have a decent backhand its just that away from the table
its not so powerful...actually im fine with my strokes its just that
i have read multiple posts from people saying "u dont want
to get good with a bad technique" or something like that so the
reason that i want to get these dvd's is because i want to learn
"proper techniques" i learned everything from my dad and
from pingskills and a few from ttedge and they all seem
to have different strokes so i dont know if my stroke is proper anymore
because im combining things i learned from alot of different
people and youtube tutorials thus the idea of getting a coaching
dvd came up

haha because i really cannot afford real
coaching and the place i live in has no TT clubs...literally...! haha

EDIT:
hmmm so it seems i should get both and study the dynamics
then level up and study the tabletennismaster...
they seem like a good combo...haha nah idont think
thats necessary hahaha and it would cost more xD

azlan · Jan 3, 2012

It's good to see that you're taking a lot of initiatives buddy. From what you said, I think you're quite a decent player. Techniques may vary a little buddy,according to style of play, find the ones that works for you and work on it. Remember, if it ain't broke,why fix it. Just improve it.

. If your shots found the table most of the time with a lot of spin, then you just work on your speed. Basically, taking it to the next level.
As being away from the table, my coach from the old days would always say, don't hesitate, just let it rip, be it your FH or BH. He was the no2 in the world back in the 60s and 70s, so he can't be wrong. hehehe I still say the same thing to the youngsters. Choose your balls, and hit the ball hard (spin and speed), and with loads of confidence.

dont forget to learn backhand topspin against backspin before going into the rally

VenusCarboKev · Jan 4, 2012

Thanks for the tips

i just finished playing with my dad. im editing the video to get the best rally's because i kinda got sloppy because my dad was taking it easy on me so i got bored...so ill just upload the good ones on youtube then ill add the video here

VenusCarboKev · Jan 4, 2012

After watching me play for the first time...hmmm i dont look as good as i thought

hahahha

VenusCarboKev · Jan 4, 2012

I noticed some i my serves may be considered illegal because i toss them back allitle hmmm this video shows so much difference from what was in my mind...oh and by the way...sorry the rallys arent so good...we have VERY limited space

WiWa · Jan 4, 2012

When you see yourself on video it is always different than what you experienced during the play

I find myself very lazy when I watch myself in video's, but when I'm playing I feel like I'm going all out.
