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
