Attack chop

Hi Frank,

To attack a chop ball you need to use a topspin stroke.  Take a look at the tutorial on the Forehand Topspin Off Backspin stroke.  The keys are to make sure you are brushing the ball and the stroke is a little more low to high to lift the backspin over the net.

You can utilise multi-ball to get the feel of the stroke.  Get the feeder to feed out with some backspin initially.  Then you can get them to vary between backspin and topspin feed.  You can also get them to feed out varying amounts of backspin so that you are adjusting to these changes in spin.

Finally you need to find a defensive player to play with.  This will be the biggest benefit if you can find a defensive player.
