Forehand Topspin Sidespin
Strokes
Joe Miller Asked 6 years ago
Dear Alois
I have switched to adding side spin to my forehand topspin but I seem to be getting loads of sidespin and no topspin.
I want to keep it even on sidespin and topspin but I can't.
Do you have any tips for me ?
From Joe Miller
P.S I asked you a question back in spring about balls.I now have some high quality ones which I use. We actually bought them on the sight you recommended.Thanks

Hi Joe,
Alter the angle of your bat slightly by tilting it forward. This will give you a bit more topspin and a little less sidespin.
