Strokes

Jerome Babiera Asked 13 years ago

Hi Alois and Jeff,

What kind of spin is generated when you hit the table when returning?? like what Simon is doing in this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1TT0zAA58lI

Thanks,

Fr:Jerome

Hi Jerome,

Because he is coming down on the ball it will be backspin. A bit depends on the type of contact he is making on the ball as to how much spin he is getting.
