How to beat a Defensive Chopper

Brady B Asked 13 years ago

Pingskills, I'm having trouble against a Defensive Chopper. He counters my smashes with a backspin lob and it ends me after three-four smashes. How can I beat him?

Hi Brady,

Try to change the pace. Rather than trying to hit through him, try to push a few balls and then attack when you get a good opportunity.  If you keep hitting hard he can stay back anf keep returning the ball.
