Hi Joe,

It can be difficult because you don’t generate any topspin yourself to get a safe margin over the net.  You need to hit the ball flat and utilise the spin of your opponent.  It will take a bit of getting used to and good touch to get the right amount of speed to get the ball to drop onto the table.

You can also do the block that we show you with long pimples in the lesson on Long Pimple Chop Block.
