Andrew Malone Asked 11 years ago
Hi, Im a 10 year old table tennis enthusiast and i've been wondering how to add some sidespin to my topspin shot, I've tried pushing to paddle sideways while i topspin, but it never works!!
Anyway, thanks, Andrew

Hi Andrew,
Take a look at this lesson on the Sidespin Forehand Topspin in our Strokes & Technique section.
However, it is really important that you get the straight topspin correct first before trying to master the sidespin topspin.

When playing against a chopper, it is important to use the drop shot to break up your opponents rhythym. By forcing them to come close to the table, your next offensive storke will be more effective.
