How to increase topspin ball speed
Strokes
Byron B Asked 15 years ago
Hi Alois and Jeff!
one of my friends is able to loop the ball with very high speed and very spiny. while my loop or topspin is more stable than his, but it is slower, less spiny and easily blocked by my friends.
I always using chops to prevent him from using loop (forcing me to become defender)
Any ways can help me to increase my topspin ball speed?

Hi Byron,
To increase the speed of your topspin, you can think about two things.
Firstly, look to get your swing faster. So with the same swing as you have now, just get your arm moving faster so that the contact of the bat on the ball is faster which will give you a faster shot.
Secondly, you can make the contact a bit flatter. This will increase the speed of the ball but it will reduce the safety in your stroke because you will be getting less topspin.
If you are looking to keep the shot safe then just increase your swing speed.
