Alois, how do I return a Smash?

Hi Mason,

The best way is to move back away form the table as soon as you see your opponent preparing to smash.  This will give you more time.  Then you have the option of making a Lob.  If you stay up close it is a bit of a risky option to try to make a Block shot.

Also take look at this video which may help you even more than anything else. I Can't Return That Smash!
