BTY TRAINING TIPS
Coach Alex Yang: Forehand Flip Multi-ball Training

• The focus of this video is the mechanics of the Forehand Flip
• The flip is the best over the table attack that you can use in competition
• The most important aspect of the flip is creating spin with the forearm snap.
• Another aspect that improves the flip is getting the foot under the table to control the stroke
• To develop this stroke it is important to be able to do at least 300 balls per training session
• Thank you and good luck with your training and improvement.
