Topspin lob

Strokes

Sebastian Richardson Asked 7 years ago

excuse me sir I see a lot of tennis players using a technique called a topspin Lob which is pretty useful and a confusing way to attack it because it kicks up in the air every time  

I’m hoping that you could create a kind of skill like that even in table tennis.

Hi Sebastian,

We have a tutorial on the the Lob which will show you how to do a similar stroke in Table Tennis.

As you have to land the ball on the table in Table Tennis you can't lob it over someone's head.
