Dealing with half-long pushes

Strokes

How do you topspin a half-long backspin push/serve which just goes beyond the table without hitting your bat?

Hi Oliver,

If the second bounce is off the table then you can make a topspin.  Your stroke will need to be quite vertical though to get the ball up over the end of the table.

This Ask the Coach video response will also help you . Below the Table Level.
