Topspin just off the table
Strokes
christian larsson Asked 14 years ago
Hi!
I'm having some trouble topspinning the ball over the table.
Opponents is backspinning the ball and it always seem to bounce two times on the table but it goes just outside, and I can't play topspin.
Please help me play topspin on short balls.
Thank you!!

Hi Christian,
Try to let the ball drop off the table and then play a more vertical stroke on the ball. This will be a little easier. It takes a lot of time to get the judgement right in dealing with these type of balls.

When you need to reach that really wide ball the regular shuffle step just won't get you there in time so you need to use the crossover step. This is essentially a running action to get you to the ball as fast as possible.
