Hi,Rosario.

Your competence is important for development in table tennis.

In which situations mostly are used counter shots? There is difference among them and blocks...But I dont understand which difference specifially - vs topspin drive ,vs service....

Thank you in advance.

Hi Il,

The type of counter shot depends on the time you have.  Take a look at our lesson on how to Counter a Slow Spinny Topspin which may also help.

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.
