How can I make a perfect backspin? I always try, but never can.The ball always goes fast. You could make a video for me to learn? Thanks a lot.

HI Fernando,

To make backspin you need to brush under the ball.  If your contact is flat the ball will go fast.  If you get a thin or brushing action you will get the ball to go slowly.

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.
