Hi Alois!
I wanted to ask if there is such thing as a backhand smash and if there is such thing, is it different from a forehand smash?
Hi Nabil,
There is a Backhand Smash but you will ifnd that if you have enough time to smash you will usually have enough time to be able to move around and take it with your forehand. The forehand smash has more potential for power because you have a bigger swing at it.
The principles for the Backhand Smash are similar that you have to get yourself into position first and then hit the ball quite flat to generate the speed. Contact the ball at around shoulder height.
