Hi. I know that pimples change the spin of the ball(If I hit the ball with topspin, the opponent return the ball with backspin)but even if I open the racket to return the ball,the ball goes into the net.So,what can I do?

Hi Adrian,

The thing to do is open the angle more.  It is often difficult for players to get their heads around the amount of reverse effect the long pimples has.  Just keep experimenting with it until you get the feel on the angle that you need.

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.
