Hey alois can i practice the defensive chopper forehand and backahnd with the wall?

Alois Rosario Answered 13 years ago

Hi Francisco,

Just hit the ball against the wall with topspin. This will come back to you with backspin. You can chop this ball for practice.

It would be OK at the basic level, but it is no substitute for a hitting partner.
