Our work tables are not the best quality, or in the best condition, but we make do with what we have. Unfortunately, though, it feels like a very different game between when I play at work vs the club. The main problem I find is with the bounce. The lower bounce gives me issues when trying basic strokes like an over the table counter hit. The ball just stays too low, and I end up hitting the top of the net a lot when I go for a forehand attack.
I have tried to compensate by opening up my paddle a little more to get enough height to put over the net, but I am not at a level where I can make that sort of attack dangerous. The ball doesn't have enough pace to put my opponents on their heels, so they just adjust and return it without an issue. I could keep practicing this, but I'd like some thoughts/ideas on whether this is the best course of action. Thanks!
