What is the difference between corkspin and sidespin?

Hi Ayesha,

It is much the same.  Just the ball tends to spin on a different axis.  With sidespin as we know it the ball spins more on it's vertical axis whereas what they refer to as corkscrew spin tends to move more around a horizontal axis.

Snake Shot

A snake shot is a type of stroke which is specifically used against a drop shot. It is usually loaded with a heavy spin so that the opponent finds it difficult to counter. The type of spin can be backspin, sidespin or topspin depending on your choice. You need to make a movement after hitting the ball to confuse your opponent.
