Forehand Push
Strokes
Gerard Tran Asked 6 years ago
Hello Alois,
I have a habit of facing the racket face more to the left rather than to the ceiling.
I'm worried that the racket might damage the table if I go too close.
How do I get rid of this habit?

Hi Gerard,
It can damage the bat or table sometimes. Try to get the feel of just moving above the table surface when doing the push. Like anything it is a matter of practice.
Unfortunately you may hit the table sometimes but the table is quite sturdy usually.
