Strokes
Hi Alois, I use short pimples and inverted rubber when i usually play and i tend to chop but when my opponent gives a strong topspin then i reply by chopping the ball tends to went out of the table, how should i chop more vertically or horizontally? Is it better if i reply it with another stroke?
Hi Clement,
If you want to chop then use a more vertical stroke and relax the hand so that you absorb some of the spin and speed.
You could also block the ball back which may be an easier option.
The correct table tennis stance provides you with the foundation for power and movement. By keeping your feet wide apart and your knees bent you set yourself up for success. We also discuss where you should position yourself relative to the table.
