Its About TableTennis Fighters...

We are three in our Table Tennis Team.*Bharath S R*, *Kiran B K* and *Bharath S*....We call ourselves "Fighters". Whether we win the game or not, our ultimate goal is to fight without giving up our game easily.

We are basically from Hassan in Karnataka, India. We powered our team when we all were undergraduates. We have a great group of friends who always look for a prize in every match we participate. There is no one yet in Hassan district to defeat us, hence the newbie look at us for an opportunity to get a place in our team. We do go for all the competitions that take place in and our place.

Another reason why we fight is...When we win at district and divisional level, we'll get a chance to meet those above mentioned legends, new coach and more information on the camps and matches...

As we feel, Mysore has the best and beautiful Table Tennis Coaching centers. We are totally crazed about the game and sometimes we use to play whole night! We never get bore of the game...

Guys, If you get any information about table tennis camps and competitions please inform us on this blog...We are glad to receive your queries...You can also mail us at vrfighters@gmail.com.

This How The "Tomahawk" Goes...

Forehand Tomahawk Serve One of the serves that can be done with the shakehands grip is the forehand tomahawk serve. The main ideas of this serve are: It generates the same sidespin as a backhand serve (counter-clockwise for a right handed player). Sidespin is the most natural spin for this type of serve, so you will usually have at least a little sidespin when executing a tomahawk serve. It is possible to do this serve effectively from both the left corner of the table or the middle of the table. It is important to bend low when doing this serve. This extra expenditure of energy is part of what makes the tomahawk serve less popular than the forehand pendulum. The main serve motion is similar to throwing a tomahawk (trivially). Tomahawk serves can be either fast/long or short. Here is a picture of how you move your paddle to execute a TOPSPIN tomahawk serve: Topspin Tomahawk Serve Comments: It is important to note that you have to initially bend your wrist back counter-clockwise and then brush up, forward, and around the ball (counter-clockwise motion). To generate top/side spin you want to initially brush towards the front face of the ball (and also to the side a little) [ Forehand Tomahawk Picture shown below ]

Now let us know how to Here to execute an UNDERSPIN tomahawk serve: Underspin Tomahawk Serve Actually, this was pretty hard to draw. The idea is to chop forward (like a karate chop) and hit the ball between the 4 O'Clock and 6 O'Clock positions. This means you are contacting somewhere between the bottom and side of the ball. If you contact at the 3 O'Clock position then you'll add sidespin by itself, which is also good if that is what you are trying to do. If you want to create extra deception, you should to make a full semicircular motion, so that it is difficult to tell where you are contacting the ball. If you do this, the motion is more or less the same in both the topspin and underspin versions - the contact point is what varies. Finally, it is important to note that the sidespin in this serve helps to disguise whether or not you are putting underspin or topspin.
