Returning Long Sidespin Serves
Receiving
eddy zeile Asked 14 years ago
Hello.!
I have a question about a serve,a very annoying serve.
What should I do when a person hits a fast,deep(where the line is) sided serve. The ball spins right sided.. This serve only hits once on my side of the table and it bounces really high,real fast

Hi Eddy,
This is definitely a case for using your topspin return. Because the ball is long you should try to attack it. If you brush the ball fast, you will counter the sidespin on the ball.
