Deadball or backspin on high ball
Strokes
Ernest Wahyu Asked 10 years ago
Hi Alois,
How can I tell the difference between deadball and backspin ball when the ball is flying high in the air ? It looks the same for me. Sometimes i judge the ball wrongly so i missed the opportunity to score..

Hi Ernest,
The ball with a lot of backspin will tend to stay in the air a little longer and almost look like it is floating. Try to get someone to give you a lot of these balls as multiball and you will start to understand it better.
The high backspin ball can be a difficult one to deal with. Open up the angle of your racket as you make your shot to counteract the backspin.

Stop Coming Back to Ready Position! Do This Instead…
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.
