Hi,i got 2 questions.The first is...why the international player usually wipe the upper corner of the table after they lose or win...the second is...how do i block sidespin hook ball....
Hi Martin,
The players wipe the table to get the sweat off their hands and cool their hands a little. For some though it is just a habit.
To block a sidespin hook ball you need good touch. Angle your bat to allow for the sidespin. The sidespin will mean that is usually doesn't have as much topspin so you may also need to lift the ball more than you would a normal block.
Go behind the scenes as I attempt a unique table tennis challenge — serving two balls off the table in perfect sequence! 🎯🏓
