How can I improve the attack with long pimples? (Because, when I attack with long pimples, the ball fall)

Hi Juan,

Take a look at the tutorial on Long Pimple Attack Against Backspin.  If you are trying to attacking against a topspin ball you really have to open the angle of your racket.  This is a difficult shot because it comes off your bat with backspin so you have to get the stroke perfect to get the ball on the table.

Forehand Counterhit

The forehand counterhit or forehand drive is the foundation for more attacking strokes such as the forehand topspin or forehand loop. There are 3 critical factors:

  1. Your feet position
  2. Your start position
  3. Your finish position

If you concentrate on these 3 factors then your stroke will become extremely consistent. Once you can reliably hit 100 balls in a row then you are ready for more attacking strokes. If you can hit 1,000 balls on in a row then you know you've truly mastered the stroke.
