Spinny Flicks
Receiving
Romeo Chua Asked 10 years ago
Is the reason why world-class players like Ma Long, Fan Zhendong, and Zhang Jike flick spinny backhand topspin because the ball is too low for them to flick with a flat contact?

Hi Romeo,
The backhand sidespin flick is easier against a backspin ball. It is difficult to flat flick the backspin because the backspin will drag the ball into the net.
