Strategy
I want to ask how to counter pips attacks. Can i chop or loop it?
Hi Vannah,
You can topspin it. You have to allow for the ball not having as much topspin as you may be used to. So your stroke will need to be more vertical to lift the ball over the net.
We have a lesson in our Match Strategy lesson on Playing Against Short Pimples which will also help.
In this video we will discuss the differences between Inverted and short pimple rubbers. We will also cover the advantages and disadvantages of short pimple rubbers. Some of the advantages are that the ball travels lower and flatter over the net and that having one rubber short pimple and one rubber inverted provides variety making it more difficult for your opponent.
