Hi Jonathan,

When you are further back yo have a bit more time to attack the ball.  You can use bigger strokes.  There is no real difference in the topspin strokes just make them bigger so that you can get the ball all the way back to the table.  You can also get the ball going higher sometimes if you want to.  This can be an awkward ball for some players.

So it would be the ideal place for looping?

Yes you can use the loop from back there.

would you recommend a fast topspin or rather a faster one ?

You can vary it depending on the position of your opponent.  Variation in general is good so that your opponent keeps having to think about what is coming next.
