Hi Andrew,

You need to play theĀ Forehand Topspin Off Backspin. The more backspin that is on the ball, the more vertical your stroke needs to be to help lift the ball. The other key is to ensure you have a brushing contact.

Snake Shot

A snake shot is a type of stroke which is specifically used against a drop shot. It is usually loaded with a heavy spin so that the opponent finds it difficult to counter. The type of spin can be backspin, sidespin or topspin depending on your choice. You need to make a movement after hitting the ball to confuse your opponent.
