Hi guys,

Can I put my right foot in front of my left when playing the long backhand push because I feel more comfortable.

Hi Nasko,

You can put your right foot forward a little.  For a short push this is necessary. For the really long push you don't really need to move your foot in because the ball will come to you.

Just see if you are ready for the next ball when you do it.  If you do get back to a ready position well enough then that is fine.
