Doing the killer topspin

Strokes

Hi I recently played a guy who had a very killer loop.It Had a lot of speed and spin.

I can do the slow spinny topspin. But my loops are usually fast and don't have a lot of topspin.

When I try to do a fine contact it is slow loop.

When he looped I could hear the sound of his fine contact but it was quite fast.

Hi Ali,

It is a matter of getting the right balance of fine contact and thick contact to get the ball to have a lot of spin and still have speed.

If the ball is too slow then get the contact a bit flatter and vice versa.
