Service against choppers
Strategy
Jared Peterson Asked 9 years ago
Hello alois and jeff,
I was wondering what is the ideal service placement, speed and spin to use against choppers.

Hi Jared,
In general it is good to serve short to a chopper. This forces them to come in close to the table. If you can then attack the next ball it will be more effective.
Of course there is no strict rule with this as it depends on the strengths of your opponent.

Gerada v Lu
Once again Alois and Jeff discuss a great match from the PingSkills Classic. This is the first quarter final between the number 1 seed Simon Gerada and Percy Lu. Without giving too much away, just make sure you watch the incredible backhand that Percy Lu hits in the 4th set. It really is the shot of the tournament.

As a chopper,I can say that it is quite effective
That is why I learn flicking to prevent this strategy.
