Backhand smash

Strokes

Abhinav Rai R Asked 7 years ago

How can I hit a backhand smash when the ball is quite short?

Alois Rosario Answered 7 years ago

Hi Abhinav,

If the ball is high then you can step forward and lean over the table a little to make the smash.

If the ball is ow then it is best to play a topspin stroke.
