The brush series is by far the most widely used passing series in tournament foosball. The near wall brush is the most popular,with some doing quite well with the far wall brush. The brush series is generally easier to learn than the tic tac series but it really depends on the fooser. If you are trying to decide which series to use I would suggest getting at least 1 inside foos dvd so you can see how the pros use both series. I allmost forgot the set, hard wall /hard lane series which can be used near wall or far wall , take your time deciding which you are best at or feel most comfortable with and then try to stay with it.Concentrate your training on repetitions and speed, and perfecting your execution. good luck
