Spin trainers
Training
Nigel C Asked 5 years ago
Alois and Jeff,
I have noticed that it is possible to buy 'spin trainers' (for example Tibhar sell one, and there are cheaper versions on Amazon) that are a ball fixed to a steel cable on a stand. I think the idea is that you can practice a stroke and see how well you brush the ball. I have been unable to find any video of anyone demonstrating one of these. Are they of any real value? do you have one and could you do a video review?

Hi Nigel,
While I think they can be a good idea they are something that you only need to use for a minute or two to get the feel of the contact. They are easy enough to make. Just stick a piece of wire through a ball and get two friends to hold either end.

#11 - Improve Your Pushing
The push is an important part of Table Tennis. It is a defensive stroke which you use to make it hard for your opponent to attack. This week we give you a number of pushing drills and even incorporate some pushing games into the session for a bit of fun. We continue to work on your serve and in this session we concentrate on your placement.
