Forehand sidespin

Strokes

Chris Totten Asked 12 years ago

I can hit my forehand with topspin and right hand sidespin but I can't hit it with left hand sidespin.

Hi Chris,

Take a look at our lesson on Sidespin Forehand Topspin. This will show you how to do both spins.

It is a matter of using the angle of your wrist to get the different types of sidespin.

Strawberry Flick

The strawberry flick is the opposite of the banana flick and involves utilising the wrist to get the ball spinning with topspin and sidespin. Used in conjunction with the banana flick it can be very deceptive. The banana flick is a more reliable stroke and that's why you see more top players using it over the strawberry flick.
