hi

Once my coach said that I can do a spinless loop or a spinless top shot after a series of spin full shots in order to force your opponent to return high

I wanted to know how can I do this and how can I realize the difference between these two shots in order not to give my opponent an attack opportunity

thanks

your fan, Ali

Hi Ali,

The No spin topspin shot is a difficult one to master.  You get a flatter contact on the ball by opening the angle of your bat slightly.  Often hitting the ball on the lower half of your racket will help as well,

but what makes the ball go high?

Usually it is because the ball has gone to them slower so they reach out in front of them and hit the ball up.
