Reading Spin
Receiving

Hi,
I would like to know how to tell that my opponent has put heavy topspin, backspin and sidespin and vice versa.
Many Thanks!

Hi Hao,
The things to look for are the contact on the ball, their swing and also the flight of the ball after they have hit it.
We have a series of lessons on Receiving Secrets where we go through a lot of these ideas.

Fake Movements
After the ball has left the server's bat, they can no longer affect the spin that is on the ball. Any movements after the contact are referred to as fake movements and are meant to confuse you as the receiver. You need to focus on the contact to read the spin.
