Hi Pingskills,

I play with player who have crazy forehand topspin he has a lot of topspin and is so fast I cant block that spin.  I have Long Pimples on my backhand and it is very very hard to block or cut that spin. How that player create that spin and have to block?

Hi Ivan,

Take a look at our lesson on the Long Pimple Chop Block.

If there is more spin, your stroke needs to come straight down.  Also take the ball early off the table, as close to the bounce as you can.
