Hi coach, I have a very hard time playing against pip, and I don't understand why I keep hitting the ball to the net.  Thank you Coach

Hi Keno,

The pips will give you back the revers of the spin that you give it.

So when you are topspinning to the pips it will give you back backspin.  SO you really need to lift that next ball.  If you don't the ball will go into the net.

A common weakness of penhold players is their forehand block especially against a slow spinny topspin. Their backhand may be a weakness if they use the traditional style, or you may wish to explore the crossover point if they are using the reverse penhold backhand.
