hello pingskills

i was wondering what would happen to the ball if a player chopped a ball back to me and I decided to chop it back. I haven't tried it before as it is very hard to find defensive players in my areas to practice with. (I'm an offensive player)

thank you very much

Hi Bryan,

This is possible.  It is like a push stroke.  You may need to open the angle of the bat up a bit to counter the backspin the ball.

The Push in Detail

The humble push does not sound like an exciting stroke but it is one of the most important shots in Table Tennis. Having a great short push can be the difference between being an average player and being a great player. Make sure you allocate the appropriate amount of practice to mastering the push.
