Hi Alex,

The key to backhand power is actually the wrist and forearm.  The wrist is the fastest moving part of the arm so will add a lot of speed to your racket and therefore more power.

Strawberry Flick

The strawberry flick is the opposite of the banana flick and involves utilising the wrist to get the ball spinning with topspin and sidespin. Used in conjunction with the banana flick it can be very deceptive. The banana flick is a more reliable stroke and that's why you see more top players using it over the strawberry flick.
