Attacking all the short balls

Strokes

Cristh Garrido Asked 12 years ago

Hi Alois and Pingskills

i like a lot attack all i can, i am developing my backhand sidespin flick and it is really good, but i want to ask you, can you attack ALL the short balls? im asking this because the professional players, that dominate this techniques, don't attack all the short balls, sometimes they push it, there are short ball that you can't attack?

Thanks

Hi Cristh,

With the sidespin flick you basically can attack any ball unless it is really heavy backspin or wide on the forehand side.

The better players will push the ball because it is a better option. If you attack some short balls you will not be able to get enough pace on it to trouble your opponent.
