Forehand Topspin

Strokes

Pragya Srivastava Asked 11 years ago

Sir,

does the action for forehand topspin remains the same while hitting the ball parallel to the table as in straight?

Alois Rosario Answered 11 years ago

Hi Pragya,

Yes keep the action the same. By hitting the ball a little later or earlier you can control where the ball is going.

Forehand Counterhit

The forehand counterhit or forehand drive is the foundation for more attacking strokes such as the forehand topspin or forehand loop. There are 3 critical factors:

Your feet position
Your start position
Your finish position

If you concentrate on these 3 factors then your stroke will become extremely consistent. Once you can reliably hit 100 balls in a row then you are ready for more attacking strokes. If you can hit 1,000 balls on in a row then you know you've truly mastered the stroke.
