Rapid turnaround
Footwork
D K Asked 7 years ago
Greetings PingSkills Team,
please,do you have any guide how should the turning on one side correctly performed?
Especially in case of chopping,I need to perform a 180° spin,but I do not know what should be the powersource of such a movement. Also,if my opponent sends the ball very wide, I can usually counter such a stroke but I cannot reach the next down-the-line ball as I usually kick my own leg or hit it or kick my bat or stomp on my own feet while performing the turnaround etc. And the distances I move on are too big for some shuffling steps I think.
Please advise
Thanks
DK

Hi DK,
The movement needs to be a jump and twist at the same time. You are right the shuffle is too slow in this situation.

#35 - Lobbing Skills
Do you enjoy watching great Table Tennis rallies where one player is smashing and the other is lobbing? Of course you do, everyone loves that. In Table Tennis if you can win a point when lobbing then it will really play with your opponents mind. It's really a 2 point turnaround from 1 they should have won to 1 you actually won. In this session we give you plenty of practice to improve your lobbing skills.
