How to counter a smash?
Alois Rosario Answered 14 years ago
Hi Karan,
The best way is to get back from the table and lob the ball back. This will give you more time to see the ball and position yourself.
If you are trying to counter the smash from close to the table you are going to need to get lucky because you haven't got enough time to react.

Most players are told to always return to the ready position after every stroke but that might be hurting your game. In this video, we reveal a smarter way to recover:
✔ Track the ball immediately after your shot
✔ Move your racket into position for the next shot instead of blindly resetting
✔ Improve your timing, balance, and flow during rallies
Whether you’re a beginner or advanced player, understanding this subtle change can have a big impact on your consistency and speed around the table.
