Hi Sir,

How can I perform a back-hand topspin on the underspin ball by using medium length pimples? Please give some guidance on this. My back-hand rubber is a medium length pimples rubber.

Thank you and best regards,

Teo

Hi Teo,

You need everything going in your favour to make the topspin with the medium pimples.  Firstly it is easier if your opponent plays a backspin ball because the medium pimples will convert this to topspin for you.

Take a look at the tutorial on LP Attack Against Backspin.  The principles are the same here.

When you need to reach that really wide ball the regular shuffle step just won't get you there in time so you need to use the crossover step. This is essentially a running action to get you to the ball as fast as possible.
