Playing with Long Pimple
Strokes
Sasha Savic Asked 12 years ago
Hi. Alois
First, I want to say many thanks for fine and generous explanation about chopping. There is an opportunity for me to get an ALL+ blade, perhaps then chopping could be more consistent. I have a question about LP I want to buy. It's thickness is 0,6, so, I want to know will it be too slow? And, you said to try for a couple of weeks to feel the rubber. That's all right, I will. What I want to know is this: is there a difference in pushing with LP against backspin, topspin and side spin? For example, when my opponent is serving those spins to me. Is there a difference in racket angle, when to push or hit straight
Thank you

Hi Sasha,
The strokes will be a little different. Against a backspin stroke, the ball will come out with topspin so you can actually close your racket angle a bit.
We do have a Premium lesson on the LP Attack Against Backspin which may also help our Premium members.
