Rebound backboard angle?

Anybody know what angle a true rebound backboard is tilted at? I know it faces slightly up as compared to a normal wall.

I have some plywood and I'm not afraid to use it.

How it, D.
Slanted upward backboard at Alnany, next door to USDA.
Terrible until you get used to it.
Topspin shots come back high, deep, and slow.

I bought a new ping pong table so I have an old crapy one out back that I can re-purpose. Will see what I find.

Now I only need to buy a warehouse and build a tennis court in it
I looked at warehouses prices, and based on the space needed for a tennis court (at least 7000 sq ft), this isn't really viable unless you have a lot of money

Putting up a touch tennis court (~1000 sq ft required) might be feasible for someone with moderate amounts of capital

You could use three pieces of wood with different angles. That would be best.
1-4 foot angled up high. 4 -7 foot slight angle up. 7 foot and above no angle
