What shot for a med-fast low ball with no spin

I have been playing some players recently that do not use conventional topspin. Instead, I often encounter a ball that stays low, and usually is going to bounce once but doesn't bounce far from the end of the table. When I try to loop it sometimes goes long, so I was wondering if I had other options like a push. What are the keys to pushing a faster ball with little spin? Thanks!

Hi Cam,

You can chop this ball but it is better to adjust the angle of your bat with the topspin.

Is the shot you are thinking about the one we cover in this lesson on Below the Table Level?

Our advice is to avoid the backhand smash and play the forehand smash instead. However if you do get caught out and need to play it, watch this video to learn the right technique to use.
