Hi Brian,
He is probably getting more backspin on the ball and has his bat more open (facing the roof). Then by brushing under the ball you will get the backspin that will make the ball float up more than going into the table.
Take a look at the lesson on the Backhand Chop.
Question actions
The pivot is where you are moving around your backhand corner to play a forehand. This is something that will come in handy in a match situation, especially if you have a stronger forehand. We will show you the best way to move in the pivot footwork.

ok, but what kind of drills should i practise?

Practice someone topspin to you and you chop consistently. Do this from one side, either forehand or backhand for a while. Just try to get the stroke correct and the spin contact on the ball. Try to get this consistent before moving on to doing one from each side alternately.
