Hi Alois and Pingskills

usually i can see in the professionals that the angle of the racket in the backhand sidespin flick is so close then, which is the right form to do this? open angle or close angle?

Thanks

Hi Cristh,

The angle will depend on the amount of backspin on the ball.

The more backspin the more open the angle will need to be.

The banana flick has become one of the most important returns in table tennis. It allows you to attack almost any short ball and places your opponent under immediate pressure. Still it is a difficult stroke that takes a lot of practice to master.
