Hi Matias,

Yes when you are learning anything, the ability of the strokes changes a lot during that time.  As you become more confident with it your consistency also improves.  It is a matter of time on the table and hitting the ball more to make sure your body really remembers what it has to do.  The top players still practice their basic shots to make sure they are still feeling right.

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.
