Forehand sidespin

Strokes

Robert Atkinson Asked 10 years ago

When attacking with my forehand I have difficulty against players who defend using a fast forehand side spin loop.

Hi Robert,

The sidespin can be hard to deal with. Try to counter the sidespin by using the angle of your bat. Or you can try to sidespin it back like in the lesson on the Sidespin Forehand Topspin.
