What is the right position in making a countersmash?
Alois Rosario Answered 10 years ago
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.

Forehand Counterhit
The forehand counterhit or forehand drive is the foundation for more attacking strokes such as the forehand topspin or forehand loop. There are 3 critical factors:
- Your feet position
- Your start position
- Your finish position
If you concentrate on these 3 factors then your stroke will become extremely consistent. Once you can reliably hit 100 balls in a row then you are ready for more attacking strokes. If you can hit 1,000 balls on in a row then you know you've truly mastered the stroke.
