Is it possible to create topspin by brushing the ball with backward bending of the wrist and with pronation of forearm?

Hi Vincenzo,

It is possible but you will be changing th angle of your racket too much to make the stroke consistent.

It is better to keep a stable angle of your racket and focus on the brushing contact which will give you a lot of spin but also much more consistency.
