usually i have no one to play with so what i do is make the two parts of table perpendicular and play against myself.....like a mini squash kind but the problem is although it increases my speed it doesnot help much with spins.....thats y if i play i usually have problems with spins like pendulum both clockwise and anticlockwise...(i can do these  serves quite easily) its only when the oponent does it its difficult to catch ...Any suggestions>? :)

Hi,

You could try to rig up a return board with rubber on it.  It works on the same principle as you are doing now except there is rubber to hit against.  This will give you some spin back to deal with.

#32 - Effective Returns

In this training plan we put together all of the different returns we've learnt and focus on producing an effective return. You should be aiming to topspin all long serves and then weighing up your options on the short serve. A good short push is a great option but you also need some variation with either a flick or a long fast push. Go out and put this training plan into action and work on improving your return.
