Alois so when I play against a short pimples, you said that is better to put spin on the ball, ok but I was putting top spin on the ball and the ball was going out of the table, and when I was just passing the ball was going in the net. what I have to do?
I wait for your answer thanks.

Hi Lucca,
If you can get a bit more topspin on the ball it will dip onto the table. You also have to adjust to there not being so much spin on the ball coming to you. That may be why your shot is going off the table. There may not be as much backspin on the ball coming to you.
