Hi Mohamed,

It gives us a lot of pleasure to make the videos and be able to help players like you.

To get sidespin on the backhand, you need to hit the ball from outside the line of your body.  Then drop your wrist and hit around the side of the ball.

We do have a lesson on this on our Curve with Backhand for our Premium members as well.

Forehand Counterhit

The forehand counterhit or forehand drive is the foundation for more attacking strokes such as the forehand topspin or forehand loop. There are 3 critical factors:

  1. Your feet position
  2. Your start position
  3. Your finish position

If you concentrate on these 3 factors then your stroke will become extremely consistent. Once you can reliably hit 100 balls in a row then you are ready for more attacking strokes. If you can hit 1,000 balls on in a row then you know you've truly mastered the stroke.
