How do you block a Smash?
For example you hit a smash then how will I counter it with a smash or block it with a spin?
Is there a way?
Thanks
Hi,
You are best to take a few steps backwards to give yourself time to see the ball. The lob is a good defense. Often the ball is travelling too fast to be able to block or smash it back.
Take a lok at the lesson on the Lob. This will help you.
The key is to countering a chop block is to ensure you wait for the ball as it comes through much slower compared to a normal block. You also need to lift the ball more than you would against a regular block.
