About lifting the backspin
Strokes

Hi, coach!
How must be the contacting the ball during BH topspin vs backspin? Do I need to contact as many parts of the bat as possible? Or I need to minimize contacting area and time?
Best wishes, Ardak

Hi Ardak,
Keep it on the racket for as long as you can with a brushing action. The racket needs to grip the ball and lift it over.
