Hi Abbas,

Not something that is easy to teach. Kenta Matsudaira and a few other Japanese players now utilise this shot a bit now.

Think about doing across the line of the ball with a brushing action.. Take a look at this previous video response called Kenta Matsudaira's Sidespin Block.

Forehand Topspin Variations

A great weapon is being able to vary the amount of speed and spin on your forehand topspin stroke. By making your stroke more vertical and brushing the ball finely, you can generate more spin. For more speed you need to swing more horizontally.
