Forehand Topspin Help

Strokes

Hello Coach,

I used to have a good forehand topspin but after not training for a few months, I noticed some deterioration in the stroke. Most of my forehand topspins bounce on top of the net and then land passed the endline. What can I do to solve this? I think this occurs because I use my forehand topspin to attack ball which are quite high.

Hi Tony,

Go back to the basics of the stroke to start with.  Ensure your bat starts and finishes in the correct positions as we show you in the Forehand Topspin Against Block tutorial.

If the ball is a little higher you can adjust your start position to be a little higher as well.

Stop Coming Back to Ready Position! Do This Instead…

Most players are told to always return to the ready position after every stroke but that might be hurting your game. In this video, we reveal a smarter way to recover:

✔ Track the ball immediately after your shot
✔ Move your racket into position for the next shot instead of blindly resetting
✔ Improve your timing, balance, and flow during rallies

Whether you’re a beginner or advanced player, understanding this subtle change can have a big impact on your consistency and speed around the table.
