Hi Carrington,

To get the ball faster you need to hit the ball flat.

Also make sure you are hitting the ball at around shoulder or head height.  This will allow you to maximise your power with your stroke.

Take a look at our lesson on the Forehand Smash for more tips.

Snake Shot

A snake shot is a type of stroke which is specifically used against a drop shot. It is usually loaded with a heavy spin so that the opponent finds it difficult to counter. The type of spin can be backspin, sidespin or topspin depending on your choice. You need to make a movement after hitting the ball to confuse your opponent.
