Hi Yong,

For the slower or topspins with less spin you need to have a more forward motion with your chop to create the forward movement.  Take a look at our lesson on the Forehand Chop where we show you this towards the end of the lesson.

If you need any other help on this just let me know.

Having a great short push can be the difference between being an average player and being a great player. Make sure you allocate the appropriate amount of practice to mastering the push.
