hi guys

i am worried that my opponent will just counterattack my third ball attack if I just spin it up first 

is it ok to just spin the first ball and then go for it on the 5th?

thanks

Sasha 

also great job on re-filming the videos in HD

Hi Sasha,

The slower third ball can be really effective but you do need to mix it up with a faster ball every now and then to keep the opponent off balance.  If you always play slowly they will start to be able to attack you on the 4th ball.

Glad you like the new HD videos.
