Melayani serves pendek (back,side,topspin) yang cepat jatuh sebelah kanan meja .terima kasih
Should I use a Forehand flick or forehand drive is the server serves short (back, side, topspin) which quickly falls to the right of the table.
Hi Shalibu,
If the serve is short and the second bounce is on the table then use the flick rather than the topspin. However, if the ball falls off the table on the second bounce then use the topspin. You will need to move around the table to get this to happen. Let the ball fall off the side and then pick it up with a topspin stroke.
A really important skill in table tennis is to be able to judge if a serve will be short or long. If it's short you won't be able to take a full swing at the ball and hence will need to use either a push or a flick to return the ball. However, if it is coming long then you can make a topspin attack. In this video we give you some tips to help you judge the length of the serve and hopefully this makes you a better returner.
