Xiom Amazing Penholder Instruction Video DVD

This DVD features famous Table Tennis player Ryu Seung-Min and his style of Japanese penhold techniques. It covers all of the standard strokes (basic stroke, topspin, push) with the forehand and backhand. It also covers footwork and mulitpart drills, and serves. The techniques are shown many times and at both normal and slow motion speeds. There is also a chapter on the serve, 3rd, and 5th attack sequence as well as the receive, 4th and 6th attack sequence.The DVD menu and text is mostly Korean and Japanese, but the cover has the English subtitles for the chapter names.There are a few drawbacks. First, Ryu Seung-Min gives a 10 to 20 second verbal introduction in Korean before each major section, which I don't speak. It may not be that important, but I'll never know. Second, the section on serves is pretty repetitive since the serves shown all look very similar and without being able to read the on screen text, the subtleties are lost.Overall, this is a good introductory video for Japanese penhold players. Despite the language barrier, the DVD is worth buying especially if the alternative is searching YouTube for instructional videos.
