Contact for all topspin

Hi,

What are the contact points for forehand topspin against block, against topspin and against backspin?

Also, what are the contact points for backhand topspin against block, against topspin and against backspin?

And what is the difference between using black side of the racket and the red side? How do we know which side we should keep at forehand and which side at backhand ( I use the racket Butterfly Sriver D-13-L)?

Hi Robert

The contact point for all strokes can be the same.  The contact point can be in front of your body in a similar position to where you would catch a ball comfortably.

Red and Black rubbers  are the same so don't worry too much about which side you use.
