Counter Spin
Strokes
Zach Eggleton Asked 9 years ago
I'm wondering how the angle of the paddle should change depending on what spin it is. Can you help?

Hi Zach,
If there is a lot of spin on the ball you don't need to lift the ball at all so you can angle your bat more downwards and play a more forward stroke.
For general spin return the angle of the bat is all important. If the ball is going to the right, angle your bat to the left and so on.

Stop Coming Back to Ready Position! Do This Instead…
Most players are told to always return to the ready position after every stroke but that might be hurting your game. In this video, we reveal a smarter way to recover:
✔ Track the ball immediately after your shot
✔ Move your racket into position for the next shot instead of blindly resetting
✔ Improve your timing, balance, and flow during rallies
Whether you’re a beginner or advanced player, understanding this subtle change can have a big impact on your consistency and speed around the table.
