Attacking sidespins

Receiving

Haseeb Ansar Asked 9 years ago

How to make an aggressive shot on both type of sidespin underspin serve and sidespin topspin serve with your forehand?

Alois Rosario Answered 9 years ago

Hi Haseeb,

If you go forward and have good speed with your racket on the return you will overcome a lot of the spin that is already on the ball. The key is a fast brushing action of your stroke to get the ball spinning in the direction you want it to.

Judging the Length of a Serve

A really important skill in table tennis is to be able to judge if a serve will be short or long. If it's short you won't be able to take a full swing at the ball and hence will need to use either a push or a flick to return the ball. However, if it is coming long then you can make a topspin attack. In this video we give you some tips to help you judge the length of the serve and hopefully this makes you a better returner.
