Hi Alois,
Is it possible to "banana" flip short backspin with my long pips no sponge.
Thanks,
Rodrigo

Hi Rodrigo,
It is possible to attack the ball. The Banana flip tends to suggest sidespin which will be hard to generate with the pips.
Take a look at the tutorial on Long Pimple Attack Against Backspin which will give you the principles of attacking the backspin ball.

Rodrigo,with OX pips you cannot really do a sidespin flick,but as Alois says there is an opportunity to attack a short backspin.
The stroke can also look like a shovel hit.
