Thanks for vid. It is useful, to learn it properly. Contact time should be quite short, shouldnt it? Can you loop very back-spinny ball? for example against some hard-choping player?

Of course one can loop even heavy underspin balls. Here is a great example:

About fast underspin balls? What should be the response?
Should I do the stroke faster?
Do a more forward motion?
Wait for the ball to drop more?

IMHO, the speed at which the underpin ball travels over the table is less important than the amount of underspin on the ball - you just need to get into position faster. Looping heavy underspin generally requires faster and more upward motion than looping mild underspin.

Why when i do this my ball have much more spin than speed :/ it's kinda frustating cuz the ball seems like a lob and it makes smash-type player easily hit it
