Heavy chop
Strategy
John Nguyen Asked 11 years ago
Every time I chop, my opponent loop me and I lose. Can you show me a way to chop so heavy that they can't loop me?

Hi John,
There is no chop that someone can't loop. The better option is to think aboutvariation of placement and spin to make to more difficult for your opponent.
The other thing you need to consider is trying to attack first more. If they give you a chop, then make a topspin attack.
