I got my new bat today.
How can I get used to play with my new bat?
I don't have a table tennis partner, so how can I get used to my new bat alone?
Hi Fredrik,
It is always exciting to get new equipment. The best way to get used to it is obviously to hit as much as you can.
Since you don't have a hitting partner, you could just hit the ball against the wall or up in the air. Take a look at our lesson on Practicing Alone. This may also give you some ideas.
Good luck with that new bat.
Pushing short is a great option but you need variation in your game. When you push the ball long you want to make sure it is fast to try and get your opponent's out of position. Watch this video for some tips on how to play the fast long push with heaps of backspin.
