hi alois 

i was just wondering how many balls can you keep on the table with forehand and backhand topspin against block. if you hit one and jeff hits one that counts as 1.

thank:)

Hi Jimmy,

I haven't done this for a long time.  I am not sure.  If I was hitting the ball very slowly, perhaps a couple of hundred topspins.  Probably more with my forehand than my backhand.

If it was counterhitting it would probably be a lot more. 

I will have to get my Consistency Chart out!

Anticipation

How is it that a player can always seem to get back those extremely fast topspins? Is it their incredible anticipation? The key to good anticipation actually lies in tracking the ball well. When you watch the ball closely your peripheral vision will pick up your opponents movements and with lots of practice those signs will help you anticipate what your opponent is going to do. This happens naturally with lots of experience. So it it your job to ensure that you are tracking the ball really carefully.

Click on where it says Consistency Chart in my response and you will see it.

It is a way of recording your consistency.  It is a good reminder for you.
