hi jeff and alois! :D

I'm having topspin problems. Sometimes I can do topspins while sometimes I cannot, because the ball always goes "outside" the table. I think I'm over-"lifting" the ball. How do i solve this problem? What practice can I do at home to improve my topspin (since I do not have a table). thanks!

Hi Duane,

You could try coming over th eball a little more.  So instead of having the stroke vertical, make it more horizontal and brush the top of the ball a bit more.

At home you can stand in front of a mirror and practice the stroke.  Start with your normal stroke and then look at changing it so it becomes more horizintal, finishing further out in front of your forehead.
