Give a guide to master the forehand top spin, the right amount of brush, speed and most importantly the angle of contact. I found difficulties if I practice with a player who uses anti-spin to cut. First ball is easy to hit a topspin but the second cut straight away goes to the net. What to do? 

Also, why didn't you start a pingskills app?

Hi Nischay,

The swing of each topspin depends on the type of spin and amount of speed that comes to you.  Take a look at this video on Topspin Against Various Spins and Lengths.  This will help you to understand the principle.

We haven't done an app because we feel the website works well for now.  It gives you all the same things that an App would as well.
