hey there ....

first of all i'd like to thank you people for this work .

such a work should be really appreciated....

my question is ...... i'm a ping pong player .... and i'm just about to start playing in a competition ..... and my only problem is about serving.

i need to know if you may to tell me .... what is the strongest type of serving can i apply...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v8advrudYZs the link above is the most serve i liked.

and there's one guy who is able to do this type of serving in the competition .... well not as well as the man does in this video

but it still hard for me to return it or to block it coz whenever i touch the ball it goes to the left directly and fast.

so i need to know what is the solution for my problem ... and if you may to teach me how it can be applied..... thank you very much again .... best regards .....

Hi Jimy,

The key is to just angle your bat to compensate for the spin. If the spin is going off to the left then angle your bat to face to the right and vice versa. If the ball has a lot of backspin, then you need to push the ball with a very open face of your racket.

We will be making a DVD on this topic.
