Hi Nick,

A loop is term used to describe a topspin that is a bit slower with more spin on it.  they are all topspins just different forms of the same stroke.

Anticipation

How is it that a player can always seem to get back those extremely fast topspins? Is it their incredible anticipation? The key to good anticipation actually lies in tracking the ball well. When you watch the ball closely your peripheral vision will pick up your opponents movements and with lots of practice those signs will help you anticipate what your opponent is going to do. This happens naturally with lots of experience. So it it your job to ensure that you are tracking the ball really carefully.

And how should I adapt my stroke to create the slowest,lowest and most spinny ball that is possible?
