Receiving

Hi Pingskills.

The other day I had difficulties returning a lefty serve.The serve was just float but it was in the middle of the table, I couldn't flick because it was too long but every time I tried to topspin I kept putting it off the end of the table.  I know it sounds easy close the racket but the amount of times the ball went off the table was so frustrating.

Any tips

Hi Cameron,

You could try to brush the ball more to generate more topspin and make it dip onto the table.
