Answer for Receiving serves with or against the spin

Hi Martin,

Good question. If you go with the spin, you can sometimes shoot the ball off the corner of the table, depending on which side spin was on the ball. A great way to learn how to return side spin serves is to return your shots to the middle of the table. Playing to the middle will compensate for both side spins. Have you seen this video yet: https://tabletennisdailyacademy.com/videos/return-tricky-long-sidespin-serves/ We really go into great detail on penulum side spin serves and how to return them. Let me know if this helps Martin 🙂
