Hey Jeff & Alois,

your DVD on serving secrets revealed is pretty nice and very informative especially the parts where you explain brushing point on a ball using a numbered wheel. I really appreciate this website and the effort you guys put into helping people appreciate & learn table tennis.

I have some feedback on the "serving secrets revealed" DVD. Just thought of sharing with you.  Ignore the ones that dont apply

1) Could you have covered some of the ways to set up a 3rd ball attack in this DVD as it is the serve that sets up these attacks, so might as well form a part of the "secret" of serves that were revealed :)

 2) Also i was thinking that it could be nice if you were to include some footage of top pros serving and your commentary on what they were attempting. This would actually help a serious learner to grasp the intricacies of a real match serve, especially the Intent and the execution which i think are the key. Cos in my opinion ( i may be wrong here) the match serves used by top players seem to be blend of quite a lot of serve types. ( like pendulum backspin+sidespin of varying blends)

Anyways on the whole you guys rock !!! Thank you folks. I am really inspired by your passion for this sport to learn more about this sport. Thank you coaches :)

Hi Harihara,

Thanks for your feedback on our DVD and your suggestions.

We have done quit a lot on the third ball in our follow up DVD Training Secrets Revealed.  I think you are right that the serve does set up the third ball.  These first few strokes in the rally are the most vital. 

We are looking to do some more matchplay analysis in the future. This will give us an opportunity to take a look at different serves as well.

Thanks for your kind words of support.
