I have watched your video about how to to put sidespin on topspin, but I am still having problems playing this shot. How should i practice it?

Hi Matias,

It is a difficult one to practice.  Perhaps you can get your training partner to topspin to you a few balls.  Play topspin to topspin for the first one or two and then attempt the sidespin ball.

You could also do it with Multi-ball.  Get someone to feed you out fast topspin balls and try to make the sidespin topspin against them.

It is not a shot you should spend too much time on .  You are much better off to work on the normal topspin and get that stronger.  Then you wan't need the sidespin topspin.
