Drive looping back spin balls.
I was looking at some pro footage to answer this question but I'm finding a disconnect between what I'm seeing when watch pro players and what I see when I play that happens in several ways actually. they can make everything look easy and at such a high execution lel. So I thought I would take my question here among still much better players but amount some people that might be able to shed some light to a serious but still recreational player.
I'm wondering how common is it to execute what i would consider a loop drive or kill shot not sure what to call it when attacking backspin balls? It's a shot where you definitely hear the wood.
I have been playing with a friend who is a much better player than me for the last year and a half about one or twice a week. He reached a high lel 1900's playing tournaments and league play in Atlanta before quitting the game for 10 yeas. he starting back playing recreationally after moving here. He may not be playing at all that lel now but he is very quick, Athletic and hits with his legs and body just nice form and ball quality. And not a big surprise to here but Attacking, hitting back spin seems to be a strong spot. the thing I'm noticing when he attacks under spin much of the time 50% maybe it's not really a loop either. I mean he can loop it and He actually does very his shots against backspin. It looks like three different results one is a slow very spiny loop, an aggressive brush loop (what I would normally consider an aggressive attack) but much of he time I'm hearing the smack not the brush sound which looks like a third shot. I'm not really sure I would need to watch him play a match while not trying to defend it but I think his form looks similar to his normal shot but maybe more forward blade more vertical but closing on the side the ball. the ball has some hook side movement to it and its fast. it's a shot that's looking to end the point. I'm wondering how common this (I'm calling it loop drive) type shot, off back spin is at high Lel of play? And it would be interested to know how manny of you use it. It looks different from shots to what I'm I custom to seeing off back spin balls but I'm not sure if it's just me not seeing the lel of play.
