FH Topspin going long

Strokes

Bram Berg
Bram Berg Asked 15 years ago

In the past i've watched your topspin training video, wich was a great help to me! Thx for that! And now some 1,5 year later I've became an attacking player. However my topspin strokes go a few inches over the table half the time... :S

So how to adjust this:

A) Try to make a more horizontal stroke (towards the net and less upwards)

B) Or make the same stroke as I did before (which movement is up and forward in an +- 40 degree angle) but with less speed? (holding back a little) 

Thx, in advance!

Hi Bram,

I think the solution is to just turn your bat a little forward.  This will get the ball going lower.  So probably 'A' is the right answer here.

The Push in Detail

The humble push does not sound like an exciting stroke but it is one of the most important shots in Table Tennis. Having a great short push can be the difference between being an average player and being a great player. Make sure you allocate the appropriate amount of practice to mastering the push.
