Hi Peter,
You can use a slow spinny topspin especially when they play a fast and heavy backspin ball to you. This is a stroke that can be really effective in this situation. But you can also use t against block. It is a good variation when you are playing against good blockers. Blockers tend to like the ball coming fast and the same pace all the time. Using a slow topspin can through them off their timing.
If your opponent plays this stroke you have a few options. We have a lesson especially designed to show you what to do. Take a look at how to Counter a Slow Spinny Topspin in the Lessons Page of the site.
