Hi Alois,

I would like to know with which spot of my table tennis racquet should i perform this stroke?  I mean should it be with the middle of my racquet,the top or abdomen?
And does the place of hitting the ball depend of what kind of a ball is coming(chop,"dead"ball,spin)?

thanks,
Miodrag

Hi Miodrag,

I would aim for the middle of the racket to start with.  If you want a little more speed you can hit it more with the end of the racket, further away from the handle.  This part of the racket is moving faster and so will allow you to generate more speed.
