Hello Alois,

I watch the stroke videos and focus on the techniques that I see. But when I actually start playing I see that I am doing the strokes nothing like I should be doing them.

Can you please give me some tips for doing better on my strokes?

Thanks

Hi Pavle,

This is very common.  The good thing is that you have seen that you need to change them.

In a match now focus on making sure your finish positions of your strokes is correct.  If you can do this in a match situation, then you will start to improve your game.  It will take some time to get this right, but persevere.

Tactics Against A Defensive Chopper

A chopper likes to get back from the table and get into a nice rhythm. If you keep the defender close to the table in the early part of the rally, it's hard for them to transition back into their chopping position. So keep the ball short on your serve and try and catch them unprepared. Watch the video to find out more great tactics to use against a defensive chopper.

Thanks for the reply! I will try to do the finish positions correctly and hopefully this will help my strokes.
