Hello,

Hi Victor,

Take a look at our lesson in the Strokes & Techniques section on the Backhand Sidespin Flick which will help you with this stroke.

If the ball is going into the net you may need to come more around the side of the ball or even a little under the ball.

Slow to Fast Progression

It's important to practice your shots slowly to get the correct technique. That will lead you to being able to hit the ball faster. You do need to practice these faster shots in training before using them in a match.
