Defensive plays
Strategy
Xariuz Cruz Asked 12 years ago
Hi Pingskills! Do you recommend a beginner to start with defensive plays with long pips?
Alois Rosario Answered 12 years ago
Hi Xariuz,
I think as a beginner it is good to develop all the basic strokes with inverted rubber. Then you can move onto your own style, attacking, defensive or blocker.
