Holding bat loose for long pimple block

Strokes

pratik bokil Asked 11 years ago

Hi Sir,

My backhand rubber is long pimpled so for the blocking the heavy topspin i have to hold the racquet tight or loose.

Hi Pratik,

You should hold it quite loose to absorb the speed and spin on the ball. Take a look at the lesson on the Long Pimple Chop Block for more tips.

When you need to reach that really wide ball the regular shuffle step just won't get you there in time so you need to use the crossover step. This is essentially a running action to get you to the ball as fast as possible.
