How we counter different spin

Hi Pingskills,

I was recently asked by an absolute beginner to explain to them the effects of different spin. For example, what effect off the rubber does backspin have on a regular bat angle, and how can we counter this? I have looked for a video on your website, but I don't think I have found one! A video showing the effects of basic spins (top spin, backspin, sidespin) and then showing and explaining how we can counter these spins would be great for the beginners!

Thanks!

Hi Simon,

We cover this in our Receiving Secrets lessons.  We show the effects of the spin and what to do with your racket to counter the effects of the spin.
