Coach,

I am a really great fan of yours from the Philippines, i've watched your lessons and it helped me. Now i know how to counter a topspin, but i just am not sure if i am doing it right .

Hi Raniel,

If you know how to do it and you are able to execute this in practice and in matches, then it sounds like you are playing the stroke quite well.

A good way to check is to get someone to film you playing the stroke. You'll pick up a lot of information by watching yourself play.

We discuss this in our master class on Analysing Your Own Technique.

Forehand and Backhand Topspin

The forehand and backhand topspin strokes are two of the most important strokes in table tennis. In lesson 6 you start playing these strokes first by getting someone to throw the ball to you. This makes it easier to get into the correct position and concentrate on the correct start and finish position, and the essential brushing contact. You can then progress to using this in a rally where your training partner learns to block the topspin back.
