His serve was the best because he used a pen hold grip. Penhold allows for wrist power without hurting wrist and allowing the paddle to fly out of your hand
The reason why the guy missed at 1:35 isn't because it's a particularly hard serve to receive (just a simple push will do). The reason is because the serve appeared to be going long allowing for a forehand loop return, but then landed back onto the right at the edge.
Lin's was my favorite as well, but i have to partly disagree. The excessive paddle movement prior to, and after ball contact, can wreak havoc on a returner's senses. It's part of what makes Samsonov's serves so great. Having said that, Ma Lins backspin WAS mind boggling. But the deception in his serves was achieved by aggressive movement in his paddle hand before/after striking the ball.
@@schenzur it is mostly perpendicular. That is absolutely within margin error. He isn't even hiding the ball for the opponent but for the audience behind him. Is that illegal? 🤔😂
First of all, he did not block the opponents view but it is understandable as from this angle it kind of looks like that. Secondly, he is allowed to throw slightly non-perpendicular and anyway they only ban throwing the ball backwards but he only threw it to the side a little.
I can't do those but for the truly skilled, most are fancy trick shots with elaborate hand and wrist movements to disguise just regular serves w/ spins and make the opponent think that it is too complicated and hard to return. Moreover, some umpire might call it illegal for hiding the ball, with one almost releasing the ball just a few cms above the table.
those last 2 looks very illegal,hiding the contant of the ball with the body and hitting at very last moment. i dont know how they allow these at top level
They're all illegal except for Ma Lin. They're all coming in front of the ball thus hiding it mid-air. Moreover, ball has to be thrown straight up, not towards yourself, not away from yourself, straight up. They all were pulling the ball towards themselves. Only Ma Lin had the correct posture and action.
2:30 is.an illegal serve!!! The ball must be thrown vertically. An arc toward the server's body is NOT VERTICAL. About 1/3 of the serves in tournament play arev ILLEGAL.
0:40 in this slowmo you can clearly see, that he isn't really throwing the ball upwards at all. He just moves up his hand with the ball and hits the ball right after it loses contact.
@@markiyanhapyak349 It doesn't matter if the ball false down or not. You have to through it up 16 cm, without touching it with your hand like he did. Then you need to hit it with your blad while it's falling. It doesn't matter if it has fallen 16 cm down already or only 1 cm.
Ma Lin's serve is 20% technique, 10% material and 666% dark magic.
and over 9000% video quality and camera angle
+10% for the belly
777% pen hold
888% cursed. That's why players don't receive it
But somebody can hit his serve back and beat him
This sport needs more attention (more players). It's insane the reaction time and precision these athletes have..
Everyone dreams giving services like Ma lin, but no one could.
Ma Lin's serve is by far the best, and it's easy if you play with penhold grip..
Bro its harder dude if u use penhold most of the time people who use penhold get hand injury from twisting their hand too much
Getting reverse pendulum with penhold grip is harder than normal grip. You have to twist your wrist in uncomfortable way to get high spin
Mah Lin has the most useful serve others put the players in disadvantaged physical position to take a return or it is just different with no effect
Ma lin
@@Time_Lapse_Master. yah mah man
not pär gerell or anton källberg, they have pretty standard positional serves
His serve was the best because he used a pen hold grip. Penhold allows for wrist power without hurting wrist and allowing the paddle to fly out of your hand
Ma Lin the best service... 😊
That spin is crazy
That is called GHOST SERVE from Ma Lin
Look at Asuka Sakai... . 😏 😏
@@tripleshot3903 i'm learning that serve. He uses a thing call Pen Grip. IT IS SO FORKING HARD TO CONTROL
T Đ pen hold*
Ma Lin serve is among the best of the best, I can’t imagine how to return a serve that bounces back
@@irtiza4262 You idiot ma Lin is one of the best ping pong players of all time. Youre cocky. He'd clap you any day of the week.
@@mjs2016 its not that hard to return that serve, its just that people dont expect the serve was going to be back spin crazy

By doing a simple push motion with the closed blade before it bounces too high.
That's basically it.
1:29 the best
Yes
Yes 😁
Yes
No no no, look at Asuka Sakai... . 😏 😏…💣 🤩!
Its amazing
Number 3 is crazy. Imagine trying to get used to that and then he switches it up back to a normal serve. He'd keep you totally off balance
Not true. You’re just not that good
@@farrankhawaja9856 yeah bitch? like you are any better
@@Bmoon410 yeah bitch? If he doesnt know how to return that serve then I probably am better
@@farrankhawaja9856 you acting like you're some sort of pro ☠️
the Asuka's one is the most unique for me. Reverse cut with superspeed, while looking like a simple hook/cut
Asuka one its nothing special.
A little japanese girl do that serve.
th-cam.com/video/24aRN83HrqU/w-d-xo.html
Ma Lin's serves were the only unique ones, the others were just run-of-the-mill

1:05 I use that serve. I call it the window wipe.
I start in the back but is similar
@@federicoecheverri3396 the reverse window wipe
For some of thouse should say "illegal services"...
IKR
Lol number 3 I felt the “uno reverse card” and the “no u” combined
2:32 Very illegal serve, you can't block opponents vision from the ball and you should trow the ball as perpendicular to the ground as possible.
He isn't hiding at all with this service 😂 that's one of his legal ones
Its legal and a very famous serve, its called the Hook's serve
@@schenzur it is mostly perpendicular. That is absolutely within margin error. He isn't even hiding the ball for the opponent but for the audience behind him. Is that illegal? 🤔😂

And ofcourse its a fucking swede
Nobody:
Me at 3am: TOP3 UNIQUE serves
literally me who hasn't played table tennis for like 3 years
No 3 service was phenomenal
Ma Lin hired a ghost to slap the serve ball back to return to the net.
The boys at the next party have no idea whats comming
those last two were nothing special
cause they aint asian
lol its just their exaggerated hand actions that make it "unique", anyone could have done it
Par Gerell has one of the best serves in the world
And they were illegal, the ball must travel in straight line vertically.

ma lin serve is making the ball bounce back so its usefull

1:57 unbelievable
Thank you very much
Ма линь, самая эффективноя подача!
The number 3 is unbelievable
El de matsudaira fue de mis favoritos, a pesar de que nunca me salió
those last 2 looks very illegal,hiding the contant of the ball with the body and hitting at very last moment. i dont know how they allow these at top level
Who else watched this after lockdown...
since i start to play in tournaments i use the first serve (the Asuka Sakai serve) i thougt i was the one who invented the serve, now im sad :(
Same :(
Tried it 6 times in a match... but my opponent smashed it like nothing :(
Asuka's serves are illegal. He is hiding the ball in the palm of his hand and using a double pump when tossing the ball.
James Radovich No. 4 and 5 serves are illegal as well
They're all illegal except for Ma Lin. They're all coming in front of the ball thus hiding it mid-air.

Guys, he’s joking... you realize he said he double pumped?
@@rishabhdubey374 you gotta be joking. Kenta's tomahawk should be the cleanest serve. Perfect vertical, no obstruction
@@sheepishorc7575 bruh
good video
Если подача принята - не такая это крутая подача! Шоу!
Is there something on with their rackets?!
These people have some underlying geographical condition thats why they are serving like this.
Love India
No matter how fanciful your serve (or movement) is, if the other guy can return it, how good is it then?
Depends on who the other guy is
Aka:
That's just an illegal tomahawk
Now that's just the tomahawk
That's the most famous serve
Now that's just illegal
That's just a regular serve
Excellent service no 1 ma lin
But illegal ...hiding the ball is a cheat...top or not.
Bruh some of these serves are literally just a normal hook serve with weird twisting and turning motion
*top 5*
Starts at top 1
3👍👍👍👍👍
All these guys take a normal serve and just make it difficult to. Ma Lin, makes it unreturnable.
Nice idea
Bas agli baari spell check kar lena
Starting me aap ne *serices* likha
Lafz *services* hai
Nice sarvices
There are several TT players who have their own unique serve styles better than most of the TT players appear in this video!!
Isn't number 4's serve illegal? He's hiding the ball before serving isn't he?
They use technics like this one to hide it. Ma Long does the same if you watch closely
He's starting with the ball hidden, and he's also clearly throwing the ball toward himself, which is also illegal.
3 is INSANE
Best: 5,4,3,2 and 1
Foul serves, he can't seem to throw it straight up!
Who?
2:30 is.an illegal serve!!! The ball must be thrown vertically. An arc toward the server's body is NOT VERTICAL. About 1/3 of the serves in tournament play arev ILLEGAL.
Vertical is often a debate but agree here! Also the ball is outside of the table which makes this serve double illegal.

False.

You wrote «…hits the ball *right after* It loses contact.». Which is not, the ball falls down.
video produced to you with windows movie maker!
I subbed
And almost all but one seemed to be easily returned, so what's the point?
Check out Yoshimura's serve
Does somebody knows the song name? the link doesnt work anymore
no links for part 1 huh
nice
Ma lin’s serve is crazy!
That thumbnail is dimitrij, but no him in this video
Welcome to TH-cam. This is called
click bait. Thanks for watching the video.
Not a regular TT watcher. Why wouldn't Ma lin serve that way every time? Seems difficult to return even if opponent was ready for it.
They will get used it and it won't be as effective anymore
First guy serve like a tennis
Par is number one in service
There is NO comparison, Asuka Sakai is surely the most creative!!
too bad its not that original its based on ding ning serve
@@oddapricot4077 no it’s not lmao. She serves NOTHING like this lol
This may well have been the single most amazing video I have ever seen in my entire life!
Thanks for the positive reviews
Then I honestly feel bad for you.
#3 had that ball on a string!
Most are just pretty flashy, except ma lins which is actually really deceptive.
veruy well
penholder always do tricky serve
#4 #5 ????????????????????????????😀😀😀?
I could do without the electronic music. Next time use better camera angles and slow motion to better see how the serves were done.
How u hit a ball that doesn’t come to you .....crazy !!!
Where is Maharu Yoshimura?
Ofc all serve is unique
Number 4 is illegal- you must throw the ball up vertically or near vertically
Ma Lin is crazy... Seriously, he could win with my 4-0 with those serves...
cuz ur too bad?
@@Yuenth-q3h na, he's just too good
The first and third are illegal. Cannot cup the ball during service (1) and you cannot hide the ball behind your body (3)
check out gareth herbert serves
Ma Lin❤♥Dope Serves
Where is the thumbnail ™️ Dima serve
number 1(ball not launched high enough) and 4 (Hidden) are illegal services....
He Zhi Wen has the best service in the world. Look it....
Pär Håkans serve isn't legal right?
第1位選手..球沒上拋..用0.25播放就看得出來..請桌總看一下

The number 3 one is ma ling ghost serve backspin
no 4 is just reverse pendulum in a stylish way.
the best was of ma lin from china
You should re-update the title 😉
how about ding ning?
isnt the first one illegal?
2nd type hurts the leg too much , will lose energy so quickly
Not being disrespectful but Anton serve is not that unique. Its just that he swing his hand only to do a pendulum serve
What happen with Dima?
This whole time I thought they were serving off their foreheads 😂
The first one is reverse tamahawk
Song name pls?
i think you got a mistake in the video
Last 1 is a type of illlegal
