Position after topspin against backspin
Strokes
Romeo Chua Asked 9 years ago
After I topspin a backspin ball, should I jump back once, where I can topspin a block, or twice, where I can counter-topspin?
If I jump back twice, and the opponent blocks the ball, how do I topspin it to them?

HI romeo,
I would stay where you are and play the next topspin from a similar position. That way you will maintain the advantage you gain from making the first topspin.

Forehand Topspin Against Block
Learning to play the forehand topspin (also known as the forehand loop) in table tennis is one of the biggest steps forward you can take with your game. The topspin will cause the ball to dip down allowing you to hit the ball harder yet still maintaining consistency.

I see. So you will be playing a topspin as the ball is rising?
Yes that is right Romeo.
