Failed attacked on a backspin serve return
Strokes
Jack Morgan-Smith Asked 8 years ago
Hello Alois
How are you?
I have a good back spin serve which make my opponent return the ball high.
However, when i attack the return the ball always goes off the table and I'm not sure what I am doing wrong.
Could I have some help of what I am doing wrong (bat positioning, etc) or could you let me know if you made a video which could cover that issue?
Thanks for your help
Jack

Hi Jack,
Try to put more topspin on the ball when you are attacking.
The main stroke to focus on in the Forehand Topspin Off Backspin. The other thing that you can take a look at is the tutorials on Third Ball as well as What is Third Ball Attack? and 3rd Ball strategy.
