Playing against anti spin
Strategy
praveen jaya Asked 10 years ago
I read that if I put topspin on the ball the anti rubber would give it back as backspin. When I topspin does the return spin changes depending on whether the opponent block it or the opponent chop it. Or in both cases does the return spin is backspin.
I am playing with a long pimple in my backhand side.
When I push from long pimple, for the push from anti spin rubber the ball pops up. Do I have to attack the push of anti spin? What sort of tactics can I use against anti spin player.

Hi Praveen,
If they chop the ball with a quick motion it can give you back a little more backspin. It isn’t a great deal more though as there is little friction on the anti spin surface.
With your long pimples you can attack the anti spin push if you want to because it has no spin on it. Hit flat and straight through the ball. It is a risky stroke because with the long pimples you can’t generate much topspin.

Tactics Against A Defensive Chopper
A chopper likes to get back from the table and get into a nice rhythm. If you keep the defender close to the table in the early part of the rally, it's hard for them to transition back into their chopping position. So keep the ball short on your serve and try and catch them unprepared. Watch the video to find out more great tactics to use against a defensive chopper.
