Returning fast stroke
Strategy
Jason Ferdinand Asked 8 years ago
Hi. When I standing close to the table and my enemy do a fast stroke, am I have to return it with a topspin (with brushing action), no spin (flat contact to the ball), or I have to move backward then I use topspin? Or what I have to do?

Hi Jason,
This depends on how much time you have to play a stroke. If you are in a balanced position and you see the ball early then you may have time to play a topspin stroke back. However if you are short of time then use the more economical block stroke.

Tactics Against a Good Short Pusher
Use a long push or a flick to open up the game against someone who is beating you at the short game. It might not be your favourite way to play but if you are losing the short game you need to mix things up. In the long run you certainly need to improve your own short game.

Am I have to do a topspin stroke from bellow the table or on the table? (Automatically I do a little brushing action if I do the topspin on the table)
You can do it from either position. They are just different strokes.
