@@tavspop hmm maybe I was referring to the insane athletic ability and reaction time of the player vs ball spin, velocity, various mechanics etc. The setup and execution is impeccable.
@@tavspop hey everyone, i found the smartest guy on youtube. Its just a compliment. But seeing as how you understand it. Can you explain it to us?? Because i doubt you understand as much as you think. Beyond back spin and top spin.
He's a lot of fun to watch, but he is not world class good. He has videos where he plays people who *are* world class good, and the difference is apparent. Having said that, he has a lot of flair and is really fun to watch.
@@fmls8266 Female top players aren't that much worse that male top players in table tennis. There is a gap but it's not that big. Adam still gets smoked by top female players.
@@yolocomics5468 He'd play in like the 5th or so division in germany (and that's being generous I feel like) so I wouldn't consider him anything more than a good amateur.
So in ping pong or table tennis u can put spins on the ball like him he hits the the ball in a way it makes it spin a certain direction after the bounce Another way to explain: get a basketball or any ball spin it towards right but throw it in front of u it goes to the right after the bounce
@@dleoner1 yeah my phones’ autocorrect likes to replace words like duck instead of fu…(youtube trust and safety team has edited the comment due to our weak constitution and emotional damage endured while being told facts)
For those that are confused on what’s going on here and why it’s unique… In table tennis, players add directional spin to the ball and the person on the receiving end will counter that spin or be able to know which direction the ball is going to end up just by how the player hit the ball… This issue here is…. Since he is under the table and his paddle is hidden from his opponents view, they don’t know which spin he is applying to the ball. He is also doing some misdirection with his swings to fool that he spun it one way vs the other.
He used to compete in the US Nationals and didn’t do that well. He also lost twice in challenge matches against Dan Ives of Table Tennis Daily and he is only English National League Division 3 standard. Don’t get me wrong, Adam is an excellent player and would smoke the ass of all local league players but when it gets more serious he’s nothing special.
0:17 i love that smile. The SMILE! Not her smile or anything to do with her okay! That recognition smile is good and I just love it okay... Don't get the wrong idea here
fun fact, adam is considered a semi pro and this is a fraction of what is doable on the table. he also has a channel called adam dobrov (i believe that’s how it’s spelled) and commentates on many ittf ping pong matches
Crazy thing is, this dude is ranked in the 1300's worldwide. He's got amazing shots that even works on the best players in the world but to be the best, it's all in the mind. Have to become a machine
For those of you who do NOT know. This guys name is Adam Bobrow (I might have misspelled the last name.) I believe he has a sponsorship with andro the table tennis company.
I simply ❤️ how when he volleys the ball back there's so much spin on that sucker it looks like it's the size of a plate... Utterly stunning game of play 🥰
You know you’re good when u have Asians making those faces lol. I’m black and the Asians I was able to beat in college were no joke! Learned a lot from their style
I completely agree. I've been playing this for some years and I can guarantee it's very hard to master. Not that hard to learn the basics, but the techniques are very precise.
he can add spin to his hits. Any serious ping pong player has that skill regardless. He aint perfect and someone in the professional world would say he is average.
So, it's a game of hide and go seek. He is an Oscar winning actor with his hands. His spin isn't what gets you, it's theatrics following the initiation of the spin. Awesome.
Hes spontaneous not as strict as others and that gives him a snall advantage over average-advanced players, but most professionals will probably beat him
The grave digger, micro machine, hangman, chipper and the John McAnroe.... no return. Gravedigger: the scoop spin under the table is so deadly you won't see it until its too late. Micro machine: it spins so fast and so close to the net the laws of physics need to be rewritten. The hangman: simply the most impossible shot ever made, it causes people to just watch it to see if it will really travel along the net from one side to the other. The chipper: it hits the edge of the table so lightly even your heart beat will be louder. (One.must see the ricochet; and even then it's almost impossible to see) Then there's the McAnroe: it's a return so technically and expertly executed you'll stand there just to see what's the result. The return begins immediately after your serve (setting up as to you knowing exactly where the return will come and standing like an Anime action figure who just landed from a mile high jump) causing the opposing player to question what's all the set up it for. No return.
Wow, These are inspiring my future career as a pro ping ponger! Pong is life! Go ping! #ping to the pong! I was wondering if you guys have any online or zoom classes for my training? I don’t have a ping pong table, instead I have an extendable net across my kitchen table! Much love from India 🇮🇳🇮🇳
That dude actually is amazing. He’s not the ‘best,’ but he does challenge the best guys and girls in the world and puts up a decent fight against them! He has the craziest style (snake)
when Asian table tennis players give u that stare ..😂
Facts 🤣🤣🤣
"this is not supposed to happen"
When Asian parents shames you for not being good enough lol
@@mindyours752 when my Asian wife gives me that same look of disappointment 🤣 in 8 years she’s never raised her voice once. But the stare, however….
WHAT HAPPENED?
Why would you cut out the most iconic part, “what happened?”
Yess that is the iconic part "what happened guy" is a legend ini adam bobrow video
I was gonna say the same, no “What happened?”
I thought that too!
yo can i geta link pls
yo can i geta link pls
When you see him dip down like that start saying your prayers.
It never ends well, does it?
@@shelbysmama4974 bro he means snake is gonna come
Watch him play good players, they don’t even flinch at these shots.
@@shelbysmama4974 lol
This guy is legendary he is "Adam Bobrow"😍😍🥳
I didn't watch him for like a year😭
I thought it was Forest Gump 🤔
Thanks for answering the question in my head.
"Who is this guy?"
He is quite amazing!
That's BroBro!
he doesn't even have a Wikipedia page..
Letting it get super low and spinning it hard is such a nasty move
Filthy
It's also illegal I think, to hide your shot under the table. I could be wrong
@@gray_gogy from what I remember this is applicable for serves
@@ryarddimaunahan9288 oh you might be right
How they supposed to know the shit ain't hit the floor seems rigged
"How many spin moves do you want?"
"I am the spin move"
The little girl probably smokes everyone her age and then played this guy. Haha reality check.
Are you laughing at a little girl?
That one was fake..theres no way the ball can just suddenly move like that
@@DTB1995 its spin...
@@DTB1995 Have you ever seen a tabletennis match? because then you would know it is possible.
@@DTB1995 with a good bat and enough skill, it’s completely possible
He's not only awesome player, but also official commentator in the Olympic games 💪
This isn’t actually skills guys, this is called “hacking” and needs a nerf
Please post your videos of playing at this level.
@@keithlc1972 it was clearly a joke 😂
@@gt3072 what an embarrassment 🤣
Aimbot and ball tracker is clearly on in these clips. Admins need to kick this guy.
@@keithlc1972 Cringe.
I get physics... Can't wrap my head around some of these shots.... Amazing!
Friction and spin
Pretty sure thats what was going through the head of the first guy by the look on his face haha

Making ESPN highlights way to go Adam 🙏
This isn't ESPN 😂
You didn’t add the “WHAT HAPPENED” part 🥲
I think he doesnt know the "what happened" adam bobrow's meme
I was sad too that that part wasn't added 🤣
I think the same 😒
Well, you can go see it six hundred and fifty five thousand different times on Adam's own channel
Yeah, I was hoping to see it too😢
The other player’s reactions are the best. You can tell he’s on another level.
Not from one point you can't
I play table tennis and tried his snake move and i can day with confidence it's hella difficult.
He really isn't. People just aren't familiar with competitive table tennis.
He's a lot of fun to watch, but he is not world class good. He has videos where he plays people who *are* world class good, and the difference is apparent.
Having said that, he has a lot of flair and is really fun to watch.
He is just a regular semi-pro,,,,
and i am lower than a novice in ping pong,,,
Everyone had the "I didn't know you could DO THAT!" face 🤣😂😆
He’s a walking cheat code out there
U remembered me my old days in GTA San Andreas🤣😂
*_EMOTIONAL DAMAGE!_*
Dead meme
How dare you not show "What happened" part
Wow. Kid is good.
The faces on his opponents… priceless
He’s really good at doing flashy moves to above average players but gets smoked by actual pro players. He’s a really good amateur
I mean he's 2064 rated so depends on what you mean by 'real pro'
He's semi pro, he actually gives female top players a run for their money.
He's not an elite player but far from amateur.

What happened guy - my favorite
I was son disappointed he didn't show his reaction il this clip 😂
When you realize someone like this gets smoked by actual professional players, it shows you how insane the skill curve on table tennis is.
Fine racket for this spin😊
Adam has gotten really famous now! I started watching him at like 500 subs or something, now he has hundreds of thousands!
Adam Bobrow is so underrated tbh like he has gone up against so many professionals and actually put up a fight
He used to compete in the US Nationals and didn’t do that well.

Bruh who allowed you to use this footage?
What’s nuts is he’s only semi pro! There’s even bigger monsters out there, although Adam is still an insane player.
When chess club isn't available at his school LOL. He be beating Forest Gump soon enough.

Adam Bobrow, AKA snake god, is my favourite table tennis player after Miikka O'connor
That back hand was SEXY
VERY 👍🏽👍🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽✌🏽

You know you’re good when u have Asians making those faces lol. I’m black and the Asians I was able to beat in college were no joke! Learned a lot from their style
Yo,ma boi. I’m the unofficial champion at MHC( my tiny ass community college). After beating the German exchange kid last week. 🤣
Yeah - Him being able to hit in a controlled manner, and spinning around at the same time is outrageous! .Dang!
The camera panning is really annoying 💀
Glad someone else spotted it. Terrible. I mean just stay panned back so we can watch!!
WHAT HAPPEN?!?
Adam Bobrow was also the commentator for Tokyo 2020 Olympics😋
Prime Adam was insane back then
It's the type of sport that people laugh at but the level of skill and fitness involved is absolutely insane.
I completely agree. I've been playing this for some years and I can guarantee it's very hard to master. Not that hard to learn the basics, but the techniques are very precise.
Adam barbrow is unreal
Adam is just fucking next level
I wanna see more of this guy!
He does all that effortlessly
For anyone wondering, this guy's name is "Adam bobrow"
he can add spin to his hits. Any serious ping pong player has that skill regardless. He aint perfect and someone in the professional world would say he is average.
So, it's a game of hide and go seek. He is an Oscar winning actor with his hands. His spin isn't what gets you, it's theatrics following the initiation of the spin. Awesome.
The spin on those shots is unbelievable
The only thing better than his shots is the swifty song in the back
He’s a master of table tennis commentating
Hes spontaneous not as strict as others and that gives him a snall advantage over average-advanced players, but most professionals will probably beat him
Adam is the real deal
In the last clip the man fully made it look like he put the spin on it the other way….
With good skill/touch and those smooth sided rackets, the spin you can generate is actually insane
Do not cut off the "what happened*
Bro Adam is GODDDDD
Adam is a master .That is his playing style very cool
The guy’s face is priceless
Yea you know who
i think its the red santa shorts that give him power

A skill that is literally inapplicable in any other situation.
it shows amazing footwork, hand eye coordination, and reaction time/timing, they can be used in other situations.
@@nouarkansas9386 One can inherently possess all of those attributes and still lack the ability to play table tennis at any high level.

He is called "Adam Bobrow"☺️☺️
It’s like pitching it’s all about the air behind the ball. Once it’s in the air moving tho paddle will change the direction of the ball like they do.
Nah, it's sorcery.
He is good against amateurs for sure, i like the flashy tricks non the less)
