First / Inducement Topspin
Strategy
DHS Lover Asked 12 years ago
Hi PingSkills, i want to ask about the inducement topspin
as when i try to topspin the ball not too hard, she said that it's good as what i do is the inducement topspin or topspin for the first time and wait the opponent to block and then generate a hard topspin
so what inducement topspin is ? as i don't know too much about that. maybe you know what it means
please for the answer :D thank you very much :D

Hi Frendy,
I haven't heard the term used before but I guess it is a slower first topspin to set up a faster next ball.
A slower topspin or opening topspin can be effective depending on the type of player you are playing.

but i think if i make a slow topspin it means that will make them easy to return it with fast topspin...
Not necessarily. A slow topspin can be effective as well.
