Multiball or One Ball
Training
Moocached none Asked 10 years ago
Hello Pingskills,
My partner and I practice 2 or 3 times a week for 2 hours each time. We have been wondering whether it is better to take it in turns to feed multiball to each other or to do drills by hitting the ball back to each other.
Thank you
matt

Hi Matt,
I think doing a mixture of the types of practice is a good idea. With multiball you can get more consistency and regularity of the feeding. You can also increase the speed of the shots and reactions. However, with someone blocking you get a much more realistic feel for the shots and you are tracking the same ball through the rally.
I think it is great that you have a practice partner that you can train with regularly.

Effective Third Ball
Don't just hit your third ball attack as fast as you can every time. Firstly it is a risky strategy and secondly your opponent starts to anticipate your shots. Think about varying your spin, speed and placement. In this master class we explain what makes a great third ball attack and Jeff shares some of his personal favourite third ball tips.

matt,you can be glad that you have a sparing partner.
I have not so much luck.
90% of my training is done with an old,inconsistent robot that even cannot shot a spinless ball
