How do you block a Smash?
For example you hit a smash then how will I counter it with a smash or block it with a spin?
Is there a way?
Thanks

Hi,
You are best to take a few steps backwards to give yourself time to see the ball. The lob is a good defense. Often the ball is travelling too fast to be able to block or smash it back.
Take a lok at the lesson on the Lob. This will help you.

Strawberry Flick
The strawberry flick is the opposite of the banana flick and involves utilising the wrist to get the ball spinning with topspin and sidespin. Used in conjunction with the banana flick it can be very deceptive. The banana flick is a more reliable stroke and that's why you see more top players using it over the strawberry flick.
