Hi Jiadong,
Take a look at our lesson on Practicing Alone. This will help you with some ideas.

Forehand and Backhand Topspin
The forehand and backhand topspin strokes are two of the most important strokes in table tennis. In lesson 6 you start playing these strokes first by getting someone to throw the ball to you. This makes it easier to get into the correct position and concentrate on the correct start and finish position, and the essential brushing contact. You can then progress to using this in a rally where your training partner learns to block the topspin back.

i going to compete with my friends in just a few days and i haven't got a table tennis table.They are extremely good and i could only hit gentle shot and can't return their smash.If i lose my friends will think i'm rubbish.Any tip on beating them in this short time with no ping pong table would be great!
Hi Jiadong,
Try to think about your serves and how to contact the ball better to get more spin on the ball.
