Hi Frendy,
It is done by hitting the ball a little later or earlier or just altering the angle of the wrist slightly.

Once you've mastered the start and finish position of the forehand topspin, you can start to focus on finer details. In this video we talk about the position of your legs, weight transfer, varying the finish position, incorporating footwork, the use of your wrist, and the angle of your bat for the stroke.

just like the forehand one (that filmed by simon gerada) ?
anyway, can you tell me why the direction can be change if i hit the ball later ? as the swing to the finish position is the same and i think it'll drag the ball to the place where the finish position is...
You will hit the ball in a different position and your bat will be at a different angle when you hit it.
