Backspin is better explained by hitting it like you would at tabletennis. (or slice when playing golf) To get the most spin on the ball you don`t stop/decelerate to the point you hit the ball, actually that`s where your acceleration should reach maximum.
Love how jimmy always chalks it for Ronnie
That's a poofy thing you said there. Hahaha!!!
Revolver takes one to know one 😂
Probably chalks his nose a bit before he goes on air too
@@michaelw2381 haha
DCFC
2 of the best teachers in the world privately giving you a lesson. What more do you need?
I'd have to disagree. Ronnie has absolutely no idea how to translate what he actually does into words
@@dnbmania best way to learn is to watch the greats then try.
That's the thing about natural players, it's all feel and instinct. Jimmy's daughter said in a documentary that he can show you how to do any shot there is, but he can't accurately explain it
@@dnbmania thanks to him I can screw the white back with almost no effort. I always thought I had to get much power into the white but now I know I have to leave the tip longer on the white
Both of them have no teaching skills whatsoever. They can't explain how to perform the shots they are playing.
if it was terry griffiths giveing a lesson it would have been on how to roll up behind the green for a snooker
This comment deserves more likes.. Hahahaha 😂😂😂😂
That is the percentage shot though
Terry Griffiths was one of the best tactical players in the game.
Massively underrated comment here.... ..
Haha
its a feel shot .....its so hard to describe to someone who cant play it its got to be smooth and long ,quick and accelerated with some power but not a fast punch and a little bit of wrist at the end just to get it to bite ....it becomes intuitive after a while
Love seeing these two legends on the practice table! great to see them giving Andy a few tips too!
Seeing how effortless Jimmy does it just underlines that he's still a solid player.
Alot of people talk about judd and his cue power. Jimmy white is the og
These videos are fantastic. I could watch these three guys all day.
Love watching these with the guys, good bit of banter
Love these two! My two favourites ;)
These were the best things on Eurosport snooker. We need more fun stuff like this with the top guys having a chat and recreating classic shots or having a knockabout on a good table. Hendry's youtube channel is mostly just that, hence why it's so instantly popular.
I love these videos with Jimmy and Ronnie.
ronnie is all about that perfect contact
I prefer these interval videos to the actual match
I love the fact that Jimmy and Ronnie don't perform the shot - ie at 1:45 Ronnie snookers himself, yet Jimmy then whips the white away - but neither of them acknowledge they haven't played the shot they were asked to play.
Ronnie told him to accelerate through, then to go slower. No wonder the poor bloke was confused.
It actually makes perfect sense haha, you have to accelerate through the ball, not reach top speed straight away i.e. Slow down
Skitting at jimmy pretending to lick the cue hahhaha
Jimmy white the greatest cue action the world as ever seen
Never seen Stephen Lee then...
Two of the best cue men on the planet, one of which is easily the best ever. Wow lucky lad Andy. Jammy bastad.
*Every shot ever played Ronnie: “it’s not that hard a shot really” Everyone:”😳” Ronnie: “looks better than it is”
The arena table is heated, therefore the cueball travels a lot more.
They did it with the same cue on the same table
@@718Gilbert What are u talking about ?! How can they do it with the same cue ? Maflin did it with his cue, Ronnie and Jimmy did it with an average cue that had a camera on it. Plus this is the practice table, not the one in the arena.
hard shot on a club table
@@healthiswealth7899 That is true.
@@michaeltrumph121 i remember seeing this live and tried at my local club. couldn't get more than a foot past baulk line. conditions really must play a huge part.
Brilliant piece of advice from Ronnie there to push the cue through the cue ball as opposed to hitting at it.
It’s funny that ronnie isnt good when messing about like this. And cant explain technique very well. But in competition his is the greatest player to ever hold a cue. Like the way einstein couldnt explain how his mind worked
Yeah he's an awful coach haha, it's just natural for him
If they need a challenge I’m up for it ! If I get a break of about 17 I go to pieces 😂 if there’s was money involved I’d be on the floor . But love the game and these 2 champions
JIMMY WHITE IS TOO AWESOME
What i would give for a snooker lesson from ronnie and jimmy
Ronnie says it's "not a hard shot really" then goes on to get it wrong and snooker himself when he tries it
Kurt played that better than all, but in the zone on matchplay table of course.
Anyone interested the slow in-fast out with huge follow through ,is ronnies party piece , incredible slow delivery , and acceleration , leaves tip on white ball for longer giving it grip and spin
this somewhat shows that great players arnt garnteed to be great coaches.
? he does the shot in like 2 minutes of practice.
@@deathbyhippies fair enough but i was commenting more on the favt neither Jimmy nor Ronnie seemed to articulate what the shot was particulary well.
Absolutely and I was thinking the same in how Ronnie was trying to explain to Andy in trying to get him to grasp the technique.
Andy needs to follow through on the shot more - the tendency on power shots is to just hit the ball harder thinking you’ll get the spin....but it’s all about the smooth cueing
whoever said they were?
jimmy get him the balls while ronnie give him advices, lucky man.
Jim’s been getting a lot of screwing practice of late!
All about following through not about hitting it really hard !!!!
Funny how Ronnie says doesn't need much screw .. when Jimmy is going for deep screw on the cueball
Jimmy always cues up right into the bottom of the cue ball for every shot as a habit. If you slow the video, you can see he actually strikes the cue ball right where Ronnie does. Jimmy got a sweeter strike though and got more action on the ball.
"feed the cue through the ball". WHAT?!?
One thing that's confused me since I first saw this video is, when ronnie says hes not hitting all the way to the bottom on because it needs power. Surely the less power he can get away with the better
I'd imagine ronnie knows what he's talking about
they dont repeat it
How does Andy say he has a high break of around 96 when he can't even play a screw back shot???
There's no way in a million he's made more than 30.
Varkings he owns all steve Davis’ titles though!
sorry, but why not follow through the ball with top spin?
Yeah the angle isn’t right for that
Commentary on eurosport tonight was embarrassing from Andy talking to mark allen "table looked great mark?" "No it was dreadful" "You seemed fast tonight mark at 20 seconds a shot" "Thats my average normally" Needs sacking so cringey
Thought Andy was good haha
Jimmy's needs a new barber
MajorCandidate or someone to make him a new toupee..
Don’t give Andy a go
Brett Jones puts it in perspective
. Just go to the club and have a go at this, you’ll be too pissed before you’ve done it
Less power more flick of the wrist for the commentator
you couldn't do this shot on most club tables
Why is Ronnie removing the end of each word ? Li' bi' be'a
I thought Andy could play better than that
So the viewers have to watch this guy get taught how to play snooker......it's a good segment but they should keep the cue out of the newbies hands lol
1
I love Ronnie, but he doesn’t like these segments, and it’s hugely obvious. Just stop asking him to do it.
i don’t know why i can’t stand jimmy’s behaviour/personality
For a man that's seemingly played for years, god Andy's crap. How can he have not grasped the element of timing of the cue action and going through the ball rather than jabbing and quick snatching at the white?!
Really slow and following through using a bit of wrist, what are these guys talking about?
he means mean accelerate across the across distance rather than a shunt.
To me to you to me
Jimmy should have kept his Barnet short during career and gone 👨🦲 bald and ditched the syrup
Kurt Maflin the most unlucky player alive.
Gay .
I don’t think Ronnie is a good teacher
