Lefty serve trouble
Receiving
ker Gordon Asked 11 years ago
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.

Judging the Length of a Serve
A really important skill in table tennis is to be able to judge if a serve will be short or long. If it's short you won't be able to take a full swing at the ball and hence will need to use either a push or a flick to return the ball. However, if it is coming long then you can make a topspin attack. In this video we give you some tips to help you judge the length of the serve and hopefully this makes you a better returner.
