Hi Travon,

The key to getting a ball to curve is generating lots of spin. Firstly you need to ensure that you have a decent bat that will be able to generate spin. We have some pre-made bats for sale which will allow you to get decent spin.

Then you need to ensure that you have a brushing contact and a fast contact. This is what will generate the spin. Try practicing this away from the table. Just keep trying to finely brush the ball and see if you can get it to curve.

Let me know if this helps.
