hey Alois, I was wondering how I can get used to keeping my arm in the v shape to hit the ball with forehand.

Hi Matthew,

You don't need to keep it in a V the whole time.  It is OK to extend the arm when you want to hit the ball faster.

If you want to think about the V, focus on keeping the hand up during the rally.  This will tend to keep the arm in the V shape.

Banana Flick

The banana flick has become one of the most important returns in table tennis. It allows you to attack almost any short ball and places your opponent under immediate pressure. Still it is a difficult stroke that takes a lot of practice to master.
