The first thing I thought of was ping pong & tennis. We used this all the time, but didn't know there was a scientific name for it jeje. We just called it bottom spin, top spin, or slice, depending on which direction we applied the spin. But admittedly it's much more dramatic when you fling things off a mountain or dam.  :lol:

I love science.
