Strokes
Hi coach !
I'm a beginner in table tennis and I feel I'm quite good at defence. I'm easily able to chop or block the fast and heavy topspins. But whenever occurs a moment where I need to smash the ball or do a fast topspin, I don't feel confident enough and I pull back. So how can I overcome this fear?
Thanks in advance,
Shyam Prasad
HI Shyam,
Do the stroke slowly at first. Make sure you are getting the feel of the action. Take a look at the Forehand Topspin Against Block video first and get their correct. Then as you feel more comfortable after a week or more then you can start playing a little faster ensuring you keep the same stroke technique. Look at the video on the Advanced Forehand Topspin for help with this one.
We show you how to play a chop block and then explore whether the chop block is a good option in a rally.
