How to return a "chop smash" When the ball is high and instead of a normal smash they chop it but with force, like a smash.

Hi Sage,
The best thing is to watch the ball. The ball will curve and rise pretty quickly so you need to move back quickly and to the side to get a play on it.
I guess the good thing is that the chop smash is a higher risk stroke so sometimes they might miss and then you just need to go and pick up the ball...

Banana Flick
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.
