Playing defensively with short pips
Strategy
rui wen Asked 8 years ago
Hi Jeff and Alois,
I am starting to chop with short pips and I recently changed from both sides inverted rubbers. Any tips to helping me improve my game. Any match strategies? Thank you

Hi Rui,
The short pips will give you more control of the ball than the inverted rubber but not as much as you would get with long pips.
I think if you are using short pips you can also think about attacking and blocking with them.

Tactics Against a Good Short Pusher
Use a long push or a flick to open up the game against someone who is beating you at the short game. It might not be your favourite way to play but if you are losing the short game you need to mix things up. In the long run you certainly need to improve your own short game.
