Hello pingskills. When is the time to open up a ball? or how will i know that i can loop or topspin the ball after service? Thank you soo much
Hi Nikko,
If you stay with the principle of topspin against any ball that only bounces once on your side of the table you will have a fairly easy time making decisions.
If the ball is going to bounce twice on your side then you can either push or flick the ball depending on the type of spin on the ball and the height of the ball.
Spin, speed and placement are the 3 things you need to focus on when coming up with your tactics against each of your opponents. Start with the serve and your third ball attack. Figure out what type of serve your opponent finds most difficult. Find out where is the best place to direct your first attack. Is your opponent better at blocking with their backhand or forehand? Does your opponent prefer a faster topspin or a slow spinny topspin? Do the same for your returns.
