Looping
Strokes
Arihant Jain Asked 13 years ago
I don't know anything about looping, but I've heard its some great technique. I want to know more about it and how to play loop shots.

Hi Arihant,
Take a look at our lesson on the Forehand Topspin Off Backspin. This is a loop stroke. A loop is just a slower, usually higher, topspin stroke. Just a fancy name for it.

Thanks. I've got another question..
I use a Donic Waldner 400 Table Tennis bat. What do you have to say about this bat? Anything special it can do? Certain shots which can be played well by this bat?
No, this is just a very basic bat. It will just allow you to do the basic shots.
