Dear Coach Alois

I am finding difficult to do topspin loop against pimple rubbers, it usually gets into net

Is there some practice that I can do to improve on this

Thanks

Dear Swapnil,

I understand your frustration, and I can help you improve your topspin looping against pimple rubbers.  The pimples will give you a return that feels more like backspin than topspin so you need to lift the ball more than you think initially.  Swing more vertically to get that lift.

With time and practice, you will get a feel for the correct amount of lift and you will be hitting quality topspin loops against the pimple rubber. Good luck, and don't get discouraged!
