  • Where do you record your videos???????????

  • @smeetyboy123 This particular video was filmed at MSAC in Melbourne. We have also filmed at Ballarat, Dandenong and Coburg!

  • very nice, but what if the smasher is placing the ball... and not just at me ? from side to side, should i try to do the same, but just using more footwork?

  • @TheL0ler Yes that is correct. You'll just need to try and place yourself in the best position once you make the lob to cover as much of the angle as you can and then move into position after your opponent smashes the ball.

  • so good

  • @akash7034 Thanks!

  • You use the lob when you are forced back from the table. If you have a chance to play a more aggressive shot such as a counter topspin then that would be a reasonable option. It just happens that when you are far back, and facing a smash, a more aggressive shot is a lower percentage so you really need to weigh up your options.

  • just a question, would it make a difference if one side of my at is anti spin

  • 0:31 a drop shot would pwn him!

  • @pingskills My brother can easily smash whether where the boll go!

  • @umangsri129 Ok this is a long time ago you put this question, but I can answer it. Every smash is different. Some smashes you can chop, counter-spin, or lob with top spin or side spin, simple counter... back. It's just the way what's easy to do, or make you opponent harder to return. But I think that placement is far more important than the spin you give.
