Hi best couches in the world

i understand that if you give the Long Pips under spin it will come back topspin and vice versa. What shall i do if they serve backspin , top , sidespin or mixed .

best regards

Hi Mohsen,

If they serve with the Long Pimples they will not have a lot of spin on the ball.  It is difficult to generate spin with them.  You should play through this ball like it is a flat ball.

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.
