Rolling the ball over on your racket

Strokes

Krish Chatterjie Asked 12 years ago

Hi Alois.

I would like to know how to roll the ball from one side of the table tennis racket to the other.

Thanks,

Krish

Hi Krish,

Practice it a lot. It will come with time. Start by throwing the ball up a little and following it up with your bat.

Anticipation

How is it that a player can always seem to get back those extremely fast topspins? Is it their incredible anticipation? The key to good anticipation actually lies in tracking the ball well. When you watch the ball closely your peripheral vision will pick up your opponents movements and with lots of practice those signs will help you anticipate what your opponent is going to do. This happens naturally with lots of experience. So it it your job to ensure that you are tracking the ball really carefully.

Hey guys,

I would also love to be able to do that, and I've also seen people doing it with a tennis racket and tennis ball (the yellow fuzzy kind).

Thanks for the tip, I will try.

Cheerios,
Sam
