Forehand finishing position

Strokes

Evan Sider Asked 13 years ago

You said for the forehand topspin, you should start with the racket at your waist and end at your eyebrow. I end just over my shoulder, so a bit farther. Is it bad if i follow through too much? thanks

Hi Evan,

The finish position is really important. If you go across your face to your other shoulder you are playing too big a stroke and also you are throwing yourself off balance. Try to focus on this finish position and see if you can get it just right. I think it is a really vital part of the stroke.

Forehand Topspin Variations

A great weapon is being able to vary the amount of speed and spin on your forehand topspin stroke. By making your stroke more vertical and brushing the ball finely, you can generate more spin. For more speed you need to swing more horizontally.
