Hello Alois

What is going on? If I hit (backspin) into ball and my opponent hit (topspin) into ball, the ball will go down into net?

Hi Peerawit,

This is the effect that the backspin has.  Because the ball is spinning backwards, when it hits the bat it will draw the ball down towards the net or table.

Strawberry Flick

The strawberry flick is the opposite of the banana flick and involves utilising the wrist to get the ball spinning with topspin and sidespin. Used in conjunction with the banana flick it can be very deceptive. The banana flick is a more reliable stroke and that's why you see more top players using it over the strawberry flick.
