Topspin Far Away From The Table

Jeff Plumb Answered 13 years ago

Hi Max,

Take a look at our lesson on the Forehand Topspin Against Block. The further away from the table you are, the bigger your swing can become but the basics remain the same. Often if you are further away from the table the ball will be dropping so you might need to lift the ball up with a more vertical swing. You'll still need to brush the ball to get plenty of topspin so the ball can get enough dip to go up and down onto the table.
