#Tableflip banana how to

I have become quite good at Banana flick.

Have confidence, if you get right up on it and you see it, you can make the shot, you gotta believe it if you can make the whip well enough. If you are committed to do a 100% banana and you realize too late what the spin is mostly sidespin, then your most practical options are to soften the wrist and flip it off the bounce safely and slow it down, or you can let teh shot go and really whip it to overcome the spin on the ball. If you place it well you can always go for more on the next ball. it wont be a killer flip, but it will land and that is better than losing the point on a miss or pushing it back. You will get it back safe with some spin or no spin if you kill the spin. Spin bites less on the ball if you take it real early, but you gotta be real loose. You could also take it right off the bounce with a very soft wrist and catch and throw it over. That way, you are still impacting the ball not exactly directly on its spinning axis, which gives you some leeway to re-spin the ball. Banana has elbow up there, and regular flip has it lower to table. Your elbow is in the middle ground of height between the two. You can also do a banana flip that is 1/2 of each. It is touch and acceleration, use loose wrist at first, and later, make more whip and firm up at impact. You can step into position and as you are about to plant your foot, you are real close to teh ball and can see it well, so you can lower the elbow to make a more conventional forward flip. You are overcoming the sidespin with your impact if you can whip it enough. One way I already said, if you are there, in position, with good leverage and timing on rise of bounce, you can make any shot. Like i know you can use it on a backspin serve, but it is harder to do so.

My technique is right, but i am having problems as to when to get ready to use it on a sidespin serve, and when to not use it like when a backspin serves comes.

It makes your like SO MUCH easier - night and day difference.Yes, i have heard this advice from Dimitrij Ovtcharovs video on how to do the banana flip. Transferring power and getting final bat angle at the end is so much easier when you are close to the ball and got that elbow out there. Show me a vid of you failing at it a few times on vid and I will point out your position and elbow. Just trust me and try that out when you get a chance to mess around. You have this position and initial placement of teh elbow, you will be able to generate a much more reliable whipping motion and control over the ball. For a banana, you need to get that elbow out front to you side a little and high, with lower arm almost pointing to the table. You will be off-balance, hit out of zone with little leverage and acelleration out of position. On a short serve you simply MUST step in. Being in position is the important thing.
