Hi Alois and Jeff:

For the Backhand Counterhit finishing position, I am curious to know why does the forehand side of the racket need to face the roof?

Thank you for your help, Alois and Jeff.

Hi Raymond,

That way you are using your arm in the correct motion.  This keeps the bat going in one direction and keeps the stroke consistent.

I am glad that you are benefiting from the lessons.
