What is the difference between forehand cross and forehand counterhit?
Kind regards,
Joren
Hi Joren,
A Forehand cross refers to the direction the ball travels. It means the ball is going across the diagonal of the table.
The Forehand Counterhit is a controlled Forehand shot. You can have a look at it in this tutorial on the Forehand Counterhit.
Our advice is to avoid the backhand smash and play the forehand smash instead. However if you do get caught out and need to play it, watch this video to learn the right technique to use.
