In this video you will learn how to do a forehand chop. This is a shot defensive players should use to return topspin attacks. But even if you are an attacker, this is a shot you can learn to add a little more variety to your game.
The tips in this video come from Orsi Petocz. She has represented Hungary at an international level and is currently coaching in Cambridge, UK. You can follow Orsi on Twitter, or read her profile on the Paragon Table Tennis website.
In the video Orsi is using a DHS Tin Arc 3 rubber for her forehand chops.
