Hello Alios,

Recently after changing my tactics to offensive + , my ball keeps falling to the net,top spin keeps falling,flick and almost all attacks.

So here's the question : To avoid this from happening, should i add more spin to the ball with the same power, or should my angle of the bat be faced more vertically or horizontally?


Im a penholder if that matters.

Thank you,

Moataz.

Hi Moataz,

Opening the angle of your bat (more vertical) will help you to lift the ball over the net. The stroke can also be more vertical to add to the lift you are getting.

The penhold grip won't effect things for the forehand topspin.
