After years of living in New York and barely scraping by as a ping pong coach, veteran player Rocky Wang decided to leave the big city to see if he can make a living competing across America. With little money and his trusty van (Myrtle the Turtle), he's exploring table tennis subculture and the colorful characters that play.
The series follows Rocky on his adventure, but at its heart it is a story about how ping pong connects all of these interesting people. We've been lucky to meet so many new friends from different walks of life, all of whom have one thing in common...they love a good forehand smash.
This is a self-funded indie series made by two friends with an idea and an iPhone. It's a labor of love made with a lot late nights, sweat and ping pong balls, so please check out our Facebook page (www.facebook.com/pongroad), Instagram (@pongroad), subscribe to our YouTube page (www.youtube.com/pongroad), and thanks for your support!
