How does Ma Long hit that shot?

Hi Shaant,
This is a round the net shot. He takes the ball late and waits till he has a clear path around the net and onto the table. He also puts a bit of sidespin on the ball to help to get it past the net.
Take a look at our attempt at 2:35 on this video. http://www.pingskills.com/blog/2012/07/20/creators-invade-london/#t=155

Backhand Smash
Our advice is to avoid the backhand smash and play the forehand smash instead. However if you do get caught out and need to play it, watch this video to learn the right technique to use.
