What is the right position in making a countersmash?

Hi Brian,

You need to be a little away from the table to allow yourself to see the ball and react.

Usually you will need to be quite straight on to the table because you need to cover both the forehand and backhand sides.

Make sure you are in a good balanced position to be abel to move quickly either way.

Snake Shot

A snake shot is a type of stroke which is specifically used against a drop shot. It is usually loaded with a heavy spin so that the opponent finds it difficult to counter. The type of spin can be backspin, sidespin or topspin depending on your choice. You need to make a movement after hitting the ball to confuse your opponent.
