Hi Maharshi,

We have a lesson on this in our Match Strategy section on Playing Against Long Pimples.

The main thing is to get as much experience against the rubber.  The long pimples reverses the spin on the ball.  So if you put topspin on your shot, it will come back wit backspin and vice versa.
