I flat with my my 11-year-old nephew. Neither of us have had any training. If I try, I can still beat him in games all of the time, but he figured out some slice shot that I can't return over the net. If this becomes a high-percentage stoke for him, I'm doomed! I'm hoping that some strong...

I ask because i try to be a two-wing-looper. My signature shot is the...
People nowadays in my country tend to serve long and fast on the wide backhand forehand and the middle of the table. weak returns induce fast counters making you vulnerable in the rally. moreover , flicking the ball makes it go long as they have less spin. Anyone?
Hello,
I am having a hard time to return long pure side spin serves.
I watched many video tutorials where the people say that I should use a top spin which will overwrite the side spin effect but this approach did not work for me because the ball either goes into the net if I close the angle of...
