New player ambidextrous

Lee Bowman Asked 14 years ago

I'm new to serious table tennis and never had lessons:

Going to have some issues because:

I am ambidextrous and dominate left hand inside... right hand outside..

Shoot guns left

baseball bat right

shoot basketball left

throw American football right

kick right

eat left

write left

pitch right

fight both :)

I feel comfortable serving right only but have historically switched hands during play.

How do I find the proper balance. I plan on purchasing a robot and all of your lessons to help have a good start to the game. Any suggestions would be helpful!

Hi Lee,

That is more mixed up than me.

I think it is best to find one dominant hand and stick with it for Table Tennis. YOu need to experiment a bit and find which is most comfortable. If you are comfortable serving with your right I would probably start with that as your first option.

Good luck with it and let us know how you get on.

Strawberry Flick

The strawberry flick is the opposite of the banana flick and involves utilising the wrist to get the ball spinning with topspin and sidespin. Used in conjunction with the banana flick it can be very deceptive. The banana flick is a more reliable stroke and that's why you see more top players using it over the strawberry flick.
