Countering a Chop Block

The key is to countering a chop block is to ensure you wait for the ball as it comes through much slower compared to a normal block. You also need to lift the ball more than you would against a regular block.

Hi Alois,
What about returning it with chopping back?

Alois Rosario from PingSkills Posted 7 years ago
Yes you can chop it but a chop usually doesn't come through very far so a push is how we describe the backspin stroke that you play. Just a matter of terms.
