DO LONG PIMPLES HOLD UP TIGHT SIDESPIN OR NOT? CUZ MY COACH SAYS IF I DO A TIGHT SIDESPIN HIS LONG PIMPLES CURL UP...IS THIS POSSIBLE? BECAUSE MY UNDERSTANDING ABOUT LONG PIMPLES THAT IT CAN RETURN HEAVY TYPES OF SPINS...IS THIS TRUE? IF LONG PIMPLES RETURN MY TIGHT SIDESPIN CAN IT BE A TIGHT SIDESPIN IN RETURN?
THANKS!

Hi Michmarv,
The long pimples will reverse the spin. If you out sidespin on it the ball will also have sidespin when it comes back. The ball keeps spinning in the same direction. Because the long pimples doesn't grip the ball the ball keeps going around.

Make sure you buy a table tennis bat that is suitable for your level and allows you to develop your technique. For your first bat we recommend the PingSkills Rook, and when you upgrade to a custom bat we recommend the PingSkills Touch with Mark V or Rakza 7.
