Short pips players giving me trouble
Strategy
Prateek Gupta Asked 13 years ago
Hi!
This is about playing against short pips. These guys tend to smash when least expected - even on considerable amount of backspin, and never seem to miss! Do you have any videos on how to play against the short pips? Will help immensely. Thanks!

Hi Prateek,
Work with topspin rather than speed and you will find that it will be more difficult for them to smash. You can also use backspin. If you can keep the ball low enough they will not be able to smash.
We are making a Match Strategy Course that will include a lesson on how to play against pimples.

Tactics Against A Defensive Chopper
A chopper likes to get back from the table and get into a nice rhythm. If you keep the defender close to the table in the early part of the rally, it's hard for them to transition back into their chopping position. So keep the ball short on your serve and try and catch them unprepared. Watch the video to find out more great tactics to use against a defensive chopper.
