Strokes
Hello, I want to ask: How can I return a fast topspin stroke without blocking it? What are the options? Thanks. Tibor
Hi Tibor,
You could try to make a counter topspin. Topspin to Topspin. This is harder but possible, if you move away from the table to give yourself more time.
You can also try to chop it back. Backhand Chop. Again this involves moving back from the table to make the stroke a little easier for yourself.

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.
