Ask The Coach Show | Table Tennis show

Summary: <h4>PingSkillers Question of the Day - 0:19</h4> <p>Who is the best player in the World at the moment? Men's and Women's.</p> <h4>Question 1 - 1:51</h4> <p>How could I achieve pure heavy back spin serve with Pendulum motion and no side spin on it? So as soon as the opponent touches the ball it goes straight into net. Salman</p> <h4>Question 2 - 5:26</h4> <p>I've just bought a new rubber and realised that i have glue but out of sponge to apply it to my rubber. I thought that regular sponge can be used as an alternative but it will just soak the glue. Is there any other method to apply the glue. Utkarsh</p> <h4>Question 3 - 7:00</h4> <p>Can you please tell what and how should a defender practice? Rutvik Thakkar</p> <h4>Question 4 - 9:56</h4> <p>I'm a pretty advanced player but I'm looking to maximise spin when I chop but it usually either goes well up into the air or lands in the net. Any advice for this?
