Is it possible to smash backspin ball

Hi Coach, :)

It's me again (Zul),

I would like to ask you, is it possible to hit / smash backspin ball?

I prefer to hit / smash / attack whenever the ball bounce with either greater or medium height and depth, (my buddies / opponents categorized myself as an attacker / aggressive player ;p) but I realize and admit that it is hard and difficult for me to hit / smash backspin ball.

I've watched and studied Joo Se Hyuk, I would say that he regularly use forehand and backhand chop that comes with heavy backspin to counter forehand / backhand attack of his opponents and yet his opponent(s) able to attack / smash the ball again. (Awesome and fantastic for both Joo and his opponent(s) ) 

Coach, need your advise and tips on this matter.

Thanks Coach,

Best Regards,

Hi Zul,

When there is backspin on the ball it is better to make a topspin ball rather than a smash.  the topspin will help you to lift the ball over the net and get some consistency with your stroke.  If you try to smash the backspin ball you have a very small margin of error.  It is much safer to topspin.
