Who's sss'scribed and ready for the final battle with Xu Xin?
I miss the prime xu xin😢
We are ready ❤❤❤❤
@@psanjoy This is not a serious game, Adam is not playing at 100% of his capabilities either.
Amazing
I asked you to play with him a long time ago and of course I waited for this 🎉🎉🎉. Partying
My favorite episode so far. Xu Xin is clearly a once-in-a-generation talent - never any question of THAT - but I wasn't aware of his sense of fun and all-round nice guy-ness. Thanks Adam and Xu Xin for 12 minutes of sheer enjoyment
Exactly what I thought, he didn't smile at all
He's well known to be goofy and overall fun loving person amongst the Chinese speaking fans, when he was still in the China National team, he's always the one getting scolded by the coach for being "unserious".
In fact he is a sunshine-like and quite easy-going person.He used to be scolded by the coaches for being too happy in his routine training.Maybe the coaches believe top players should be more serious and Intimidating.
@@ZingJyuYebelieve or not Xu Xin is like Ronaldinho in football never played serious just enjoyey all game he plays😂
Xu xin could be Olympic champion in singles if he didn’t play in the same era as ma long
Xu Xin is my all time favorite player. Watching him is like watching an artist during a creative process.
Xu Xin and Timo Boll are my tt heroes. Maybe because I am lefty too.
@@Lycanta Waldner (right-handed :-( ) remains my favourite ^^
I was actually SHOCKED Xu Xin lost the game with a recreational racquet! I can not imagine Djokovic losing a game to a non-pro just because of a normal racquet. He probably wouldn't even lose a single point, let alone a whole game. I mean, Xu Xin has been doing this for decades, multiple hours per day, and is supposedly one of the best... he should be able to beat any amateur with a frying pan lol. Kinda embarrassing he lost, to be honest.
@@firelordplayz he's not taking it too seriously
So much respect for the fact that Adam learned Chinese to be closer to the game he loves and the players at its top echelon. I'm a language guy (as my own channel implies) but as I know from the little Mandarin I've picked up, it isn't an easy language to learn for an English speaker.
trying to learn spanish if i may ask for mandarin how long did it learn to take :)?
@@mudiametokunboh23702.5 years of on lots of studying, living 8 of those months abroad and 1 year with a Taiwanese girlfriend for me. Without these circumstances likely longer.
Mandarin is actually an incredibly easy language to speak, not so much learn the writing though.
@@mudiametokunboh2370普通话语法十分简单 但说和写对于非母语者比较困难
I know!! Holy moly respect through the roof! I had no idea Adam learnt chinese till this vid, and it sounds like his hard work really paid off - I can now understand him in two different languages xD Love from Hong Kong
Crazy to think how you had to go all out even when he was only using just the blade to win. That shows just how good he really is! Hope to see more videos of you in China! 🎉🎉❤❤
Adam might lose a game of table tennis every now and then, but he usually wins in terms of personality, humor and charisma. But coming up against Xu Xin, he's got some serious competition in that department as well! ❤Good job people like these two exist!
He was number one in era of Ma Long, Zhang Jike, Wang Hao, Fan Zendong etc.
You konw what, in china, they get world chapion are much easier than get the chapion in china🤣
@@laokk4595 Lmao
Never knew before watching a TT video could be so much fun. Also never knew a person could actually be so versatile and talented in TT - left-handed playing right-handed, penholder playing handshake, using mini racket like a real racket, playing with just the TT blade. Thank you, Adam. TT is fortunate to have you as the ambassador, showing us what we might otherwise never have seen.
I miss this man so much in international tournaments
Amazing. Xu Xin and Adam is number 1
You played very well. The skill of top professional players is beyond imagination. One of my colleagues, who is an amateur enthusiast, easily defeated me. However, during his peak, he was completely overpowered by a 9-year-old boy ........... Kong Linghui. At that time, Kong had only been learning PingPong for only three years and was also an amateur player. It can only be said to be a natural talent.
@@ddafonhaatj382 I'm an old man, and my ex-colleagues are even older than me, having retired long ago. Still, there are very many older people playing table tennis in China now, especially in parks and neighbourhoods, and it's a relatively gentle sport that's not dangerous, even for the elderly .
@@ddafonhaatj382yeah, old gold dude
Adam is the single most entertaining guy in the world of table tennis. Thank you Adam for bringing us the pure joy of TT.
Thank you so much for this! Xu Xin is for sure the COAT, the coolest of all times. My hero, the reason why I shifted from shakehand to penhold grip, 3 years ago. Never regretted it, it’s so much more fun to play penhold style, though I’m self learning it, but get incredible inspiration from Xuperman’s videos
These challenges brought a huge smile to my face, love your content! It's so incredible to watch the best players like Xu Xin try crazy things like switching from penhold to shakehand on a rec paddle to hit a backspin smash
This is going to be the greatest Bobrow video of all time!
OK - the next video is going to be the greatest Bobrow video ever! This is just the appetizer.
Just pure talent... He is on a whole different level than other people who have been on Adam's channel... So entertain to watch it!
This was BY FAR the most entertaining of all these videos. I can definitely see why Adam would aspire to be this person. Xu Xin is every good thing about Adam, just on a different level.
Xuperman was the real GOAT of hearts , showman, real entertainer... really one of the kind player. ❤
I just like to say, thank you Adam for allowing me to appreciate the sport of table tennis. My grandpa used to be really good, and I dream to be just as good as him whenever I play. I really adore your videos, and they enlightened me on the sport of table tennis as a whole, making me want to play even more! Me and brothers play almost everyday, and we all give thanks to you and your videos! Thank you for introducing me to the sport!
Absolutely fantastic! Loved the varied paddle selection! You both have brought so much sheer joy to the game.
Love these videos, so cool to see you and these absolute legends of the game just enjoying their time :) As an offensive C-Penholder myself I was also sooo inspired the first time I watched Xu Xin!
Xuxin is the best😊
A dream came true!!! Finally got to see you play my favorite player. 1st part is more of a foreplay lol, but very interesting to see Xu Xin nailed these tricky games. Can't wait to see the 2nd part.
I had the biggest smile on my face for the whole video. This one was awesome! Amazing to see Xu Xin being playful! Can't wait for part 2! Thanks Adam!
Xu Xin is well known in china for his playful personality, too bad that most of Chinese (and other Asian country) players are only known by the international fans for their skills, but not their personalities
Ok Adam you've outdone yourself. Just getting to hangout with Mr. Entertainment and Chinese Xupertalent would have an honour. I've played competitive table tennis for 20 years for Geelong and nationally so when the opportunity came up for the Platinum events at Geelong I jumped at the chance. Both years(should have been 3)surpassed my expectation of star standing line ups in an Australian Open event. Had the vest seats. Watched the best players as everyone one who was anyone turned up and gave it everything. Whated players train at night. Got into the Chinese sectioned training hall where the glue-up, warm-up and coached. Unfortunately didn't find out about the visitors that came to Geelongs main table tennis centre otherwise I would have been happy to pop in and say hi. Anyway I know you came down to Geelong and performed your commentary professionally. Xu Xin vs Patrick Franziska semi final was a heart stopper. Great video. Keep them coming. Regards, Robin Paterson.
Hey Adam, you're a classy man!!! and you have done us all a great favor in bringing first class entertainment to this amazing sport. As is for you, The Cloudwalker is one of my favourites as well. Thanks for bringing so much class and joy to the world of Table tennis. Cheers,
Great to see someone so dedicated to such a great sport. Keep up the good work!
Wow, Adam, you made my day! I never thought that Xu Xin would take part in this kind of videos. Thank you!
I truly love how Adam just acquired his own pool of expression/reaction meme clips over the years.
The small packet game was incredibly impressive and beyond my imagination. I have been playing table tennis since I was 6, but it wasn't until today that I know how amazing the pro can handle the ball.
with a mini racquet it isn't any handicap at all. The contact point for pros is so small because they always hit it on the same location.
The the most spectacular backhand shot (by _anyone_ ) I ever saw was an emergency smash against Waldner by penholder Wang Zengyi. JO had made a slam-dunk, point-over, put-away forehand to Wang's far left. It would be almost unreturnable, even for a shakehand lob attempt. Wang instantly flipped to shakehand, bounding in huge strides almost to the barriers, and blasted a full-stroke shakehand kill shot that left Waldner dumbfounded. He gave an understated thumbs up for it, in frank admiration. At the time I just sat there, not even understanding _what_ had happened, and I still don't understand how he could have pulled it off. It was a Xuperman² one-off event that will never be repeated.
agreed, small racquet precision was extraordinary
@@-danR is there a video?
Xu Xin is just such a personable player, and outright amazing touch and feel. Love this Adam and props to Xu Xin.
Just found your channel right as i was looking for ping pong content. Love the editing and how you show the different stroke types. Thanks for helping me learn!
Xu Xin is so chill! Was fascinating to watch how he adopted to the challenges. 🔥 Cant wait for your next video. Good luck Adam, just aim for net rollers and edge :p
This is the video that we've alllll been waiting for!!!! Amazing Adam!!!!
He is a máster, you get some good points but honestly for me he was playing like 50% of his capacity, he was so chill lol and make It look so easy even with the Challenges
More like 5%
More like 5-10%
yeah in the first raquet he was only allowed to slice and yet he didnt start to play hard and fast.
Having being watching your videos for a while, happy to see that you are in China and play with world top pros. Keep this going please, fun to watch how amazing you and Xu Xin are
I think this is as good as it can get! Xu Xin is so cool and entertaining! Thanks for making this happen Adam!
The reason I started “pen holding” in table tennis was watching by pure luck a match between Ma Lin and Kenta Matsudaira and of course I have been attracted by the spectacle Ma Lin offered in that match. I left with no remorse😊 the shake hand grip and trade it for penhold and I do not regret that a bit, even if that meant to “ factory reset my knowledge” 😊. I pushed hard work and taught myself the RPB technique after watching countless hours of another legend at work, Wang Hao😊 I solemnly promise I will not miss a second from the clip if Adam will challenge the God of ghost serve. Anyway, I feel so happy that Xu Xin opened his business, I am pretty sure that there in that very place he will inspire many generations to come. It will be enough for a kid to see him demonstrating some of those mad skills and he or she will want on the spot to become a future champ.
I’ve never seen a penholder do a shakehand grip in a match before, let alone Xu Xin! This is great
TableTennisDaily have a vid where they get Dang Qiu to play a match with shakehand - and another one getting Dima to play penhold...
This was such an amazing video!!! I’m so glad you made this! I was laughing and having so much fun watching it! Thank you for all you do!!!
This is your best video so far, Adam! One phrase oft-repeated in our TT playing sessions is "It's not the racket, it's the player!" Xu Xin is a living testament to this line. I wanted you to compete with Xu Xin's natural playing style and was a bit underwhelmed with the format at first, but am elated that you'll be doing just that in the next video. Can't wait!!
Actually, he proved it is a racquet for him lol. I was SHOCKED Xu Xin lost the game with a recreational racquet! I can not imagine Djokovic losing a game to a non-pro just because of a normal racquet. He probably wouldn't even lose a single point, let alone a whole game. I mean, Xu Xin has been doing this for decades, multiple hours per day, and is supposedly one of the best... he should be able to beat any amateur with a frying pan lol. Kinda embarrassing he lost, to be honest.
@@firelordplayz Nah bro, I disagree. Both very different games. A rubber padding of any sort is essential to a table tennis racquet. Without that it is as you said a literal frying pan! I’d definitely give Xu Xin the benefit of doubt for this.
@@neilpaliwal9102 I understand the last game he lost, but I am talking about the game he lost playing with a typical, standard recreational racquet. That one shocked me and he as a very experienced professional definitely should have won that. I mean, seriously, can you imagine Djokovic losing to someone just because he played with a normal $100 racquet from a store? Or Messi losing to someone just because he played with a regular soccer ball, wearing regular shoes? I can not. It seems all the training and all the talent in the world means very little in TT if you don't have the best racquet and that's very surprising to say the least.
@@firelordplayz Oh yeah right, my mistake, I misunderstood. But I do hope he was just messing around and lost carelessly. Guess we’ll not know!
Definitely the best video of the year. Simply amazing 🎉
Finallyyyyyy, Been waiting for years to see you play Xu Xin, and it was really good to see him play. Was wondering what he is up to. There should be a video of him showing how he retired life is treating him.
Superman VS xuperman
Holy moly, what an awesome video. You are the best ambassador for the sport Adam, love your work!
Love seeing Xu Xins personality. You don't get that in pro matches. So fun watching the Cloud Walker! He'll always be one of my favorites.
Oh man I love this. As a fan of XX I've never watched him does anything remotely close to this! Imagine one day XX starts doing all crazy ping pong challenges!
This was simply sublime. Good video quality with excellent elements and descriptions as well. Crazy. Envy both to be so freaking good.
It’s Crazy how much you have Done Adam. You are the reason Why I started playing Table Tennis and i am in the top 7 of my Table Tennis Club. Your Videos are very Entertaining and I love them. Keep on ponging
Great to see XX back in action 😃.. Half the times I am watching his old videos.. I miss XX 😢
Xu Xin should join another country like Singapore or US to play in the international stage. He can still beat those top players.
The game with the small racket was wild. Xu xin's touch is otherworldly. So glad he had a successful career that provided enormous entertainment for fans around the world!
Looking straight into Adam's eyes after every absurd point he scored is straight savage lol. What an unbelievable talent.
Xu Xin превратил настольный теннис в целое шоу..его розыгрыши мячей -это что то запредельное
I think this is what I wanted to see the most! More of the content with serious players like Chinese tops doing casual stuff! Especially like Xu Xin playing shakehand! Thank you, Adam, for this video! Hope some time I can see something similar with Ma Long. 😊
This is maybe the video that has made me smile the most!!! Xu Xin being funny and cocky, truly what all Xu Xin's fans wanna see! And there's more? hell yeah
Yess!!! Legend Adam and THE Legend Cloudwalker together in a video. Thank you so much for giving us some more Xuperman. For some reason I was watching the video in the morning and I gotta say it made me seriously happy. First video in a long time that made me feel in such a good way. Thanks for making my morning Adam and thanks to my favorite Legend Xu.
Just the thumbnail gives me chills. Xu was what looks like the last of a rare type of players that you cannot tell were better players or entertainers. I was a shakeholder, but turned into a left hand penholder inspired by this guy. I loved his matches coupled with your commentary because i know you loved him just as much adam
Can't wait to watch the following video, it is very promising. Anyway, Xu Xin is so impressive even with a wooden racket without any rubber or a microscopic one. He seems nice and and likes to banter. Thanks again for these entertaining videos when we get to see another side of pro-players (a legendary one here).
Great to see XuXin again, all the best for him and his new Cafe!
Finally!!! I was waiting for this battle for a very long time! Thank you Adam
Fun to watch. Xu is a magician when playing, as he could place the ball almost wherever he wanted. Just an extraordinary player of all time.
The most entertaining player to have held a bat. His highlight reel is longer than my life expectancy. 🤣🤣
Xu Xin my all time favorite player as well 😊 the reason I started the penhold path..miss him playing in international competition but I’m glad I can still watch him play 🏓 looking forward to your next game with adam 😊
kzhead.info/sun/hs-RZpmIa2iPoZ8/bejne.html Chinese League 2023
Amazing!!! Xuperman and Super Adam play together, legendary!!!
I expected this crazy skill from Xuperman, but did not expect Adam to be able to keep up so well for so long. Good work, both! Very fun.
What a great sport Xu Xin is doing this challenge. Amazing how he played with all those rackets. ❤
Incredibile how did he play , We can see the important part of tabletennis Is the hand , the position and the motion of body! Thanks Adam for this video I really enjoy! 🎉💪🏻🏓
Wow this video felt short I was enjoying it so much! Thanks Adam Bobrow and Xu Xin!
Awesome video. So glad you got to do this Adam.
He´s fantastic. As a Chinese penholder I can say: What this guy does borders on the impossible. Amazing!
@Adam since you are in China, are we expecting a "win me for $100" show in China? I don't think you need to find a table or place to do that like you did in Paris. Please like if you also want to see that in China!
Xu singing English song and Adam saying "aiyaa" is just incredible how sports create a wonderful bridge among civilisations.
Thank you Adam and Xu Xin. I miss this guy man ! the greatest entertainer.
The thing I love about this sport: "The better you get, the more you realize how bad you are" but it never stops being fun 😂
Watching this video was sheer joy, how often we get to see our favourite player like this😍💯 The way Xu Xin said "Shakehand is easy!!!" was hilarious 😂😂, I started playing penhold after getting mesmerized by Xu Xin's game❤ Keep uploading such videos, we want 2nd, 3rd and endless parts of this video. No one comes near Xu Xin when it's about creativity, entertainment and pure skills of the game. Our Cloud Walker✨ Love you Xuperman🫂❣️ From India 🇮🇳
Hey Adam! 🤠 my father used to play table tennis and we decided to sign me up for it. I’ve even started taking classes!! I’ve been searching KZhead for motivation and help with technic and just recently discovered your channel. I love your videos so I subscribed. Hope to see more! ❤
Wow! You are such a lucky dude to be able to play with him. Thank you for posting this
It reminds me how my coach once destroyed me with only a blade. Xu Xin is my favorite player in modern area. No one else comes close.
Adam's nicknames for people are always sooo sick!
🎉thank you for your cooperation with my favorite pingpong player Xuxin❤ Both of your games were amazing!
WHAAAAAAAAAAAT ADAM MANAGED TO GET XU XIN ON THE CHANNEL!!!!!!!!! IM SO EXCITED TO SEE THIS I JUST SAW IT IN MY NOTIFICATIONS!!!!!!!
Waiting for MA long, Timo boll, fan zhendong videos next
非常好视频，使我的乒乓球旋转❤
DUDE! You got to play Xu Xin! OMG! Thank you, Xu Xin, for inspiring me to improve my game and have fun doing it! One of the best episodes yet. Tell him please to come to the U.S. and play in a tournament for fun. Especially the Westchester table tennis club tournaments!
So awesome to see XX back on the table!
It's interesting to see Xu Xin went back to traditional penhold backhand instead of RPB in these non-competitive matches. I guess old habits are hard to change. Probobly he will play some RPB in the next match.
He seems like such a chill guy just to be around
this best video i saw from adam ... gz bro! keep going like this!!!
Adam vs Xu Xin is probably the video i was expecting the most ! I wasn't disappointed and i can't wait for the next part
I wonder if Adam understands chinese
What makes Xu Xin so good is his ability to adapt technique during the game. Being creative is difficult for professional players.
love this video!!!! the video is super fun and its great to see xuxin!
Hey Adam I've never played table tennis and never watched anything related to it. You made this so interesting👍
Xu Xin had one of the highest talent ceilings in the world of TT.
What a treat. I love watching Xu Xin - he is amazing. And Adam, you're ok too. LOL.
Xuper video Adam! Can't wait to see the next one with Xuperman as well as the next prof. USA league matches with your commentating. By the way, since you asked about my name: the "shuswp" part is based on the name of the river I grew up beside, the Shuswap river, which itself derives from the name of the local native Indian tribe/band. There is also a touristy Shuswap lake in the same region with five different arms, one of them called Salmon Arm (where they actually have a tiny little TT club, and even there you are a well-known entity, haha). I officially invite you to visit the Vancouver Table Tennis Club (3925 Fraser St, Vancouver) where I play on your next or first ever trip here. One of our members, Olivia Huang, recently (in October) won the under 13 yrs girl's gold medal at the WTT Youth Contender Mosquera 2023. I think this is a first for a Canadian at such a major international competition. Another member, Tom, plays excellent snakes, like you. Would love see a snake fight between the 2. Yet another member, Laurent (originally from France) conducted an hour long video interview (available on his website) with Timo Boll last year, in which he invites Boll to come for a visit to Vancouver.
Omg! This is Tendo! This video just came up in my KZhead feed! It’s amazing! I love the creativity and effort you put into the video! It’s so much fun to watch your journey and enthusiasm in this sport! 加油 加油! I’m going to subscribe and watch your other videos, much love brother!
Tendo!! Great to hear from you!!! What a wonderful coincidence!! Thanks a ton! I hope you enjoy and I hope all is well with you! 🥰
you are bestowed with an unparalleled, cosmic blessing to be able to play with Xu Xin, how could you! damn
The collaboration we all waited for man this is going to be A good one.
Adam: urgh...ahh... come on!!! Xu xin: not even trying
You are so lucky! We are so lucky to see this! Love this!
