I can't tell what the difference between a chiquita and a backhand flick is.

Hi Felix,

The Chiquita or Backhand sidespin flick generates sidespin by hitting on the side of the ball.  The normal flick hits the back of the ball.

Take a look at the two videos on the Backhand Sidespin Flick and the Backhand Flick to see the differences.
