Hi Max,
This is difficult to deal with. Perhaps you can stand a little further away from the table to give yourself more time to deal with the faster ball. It is easier to move in to the short ball than move backwards to the faster ball.
When you make the return of this ball it is important to make sure you use a topspin stroke to deal with it. A smash or flatter ball will result in all the spin of the serve taking effect. If you spin the ball you will generate your own spin and get it spinning in the direction you want.
Jeff and I will look at how we can make this video.
Thanks for the suggestion.

Often when we return the sidespin we get around the side of the ball. If you can hit it purely with sidespin and brush it fast you will get the ball to go where you want it to go.
Whe you hit on the side of the ball it gets a bit awkward.
