Looping Technique

Strokes

Jamie Milroy Asked 11 years ago

Hi Alois and Jeff, I am a very backhand oriented player and I have been trying to incorporate my forehand into my attacking strategy as it will be inevitably necessary to learn correctly in order for me to advance further. Whenever I go to loop the ball on my forehand I never seem to have the right body position and it feels somewhat awkward when doing the loop stroke. Do you have any tips on forehand looping technique and key points?

Thanks

Hi Jamie,

The best advice is to watch the lesson on the Forehand Topspin Off Backspin.

Stop Coming Back to Ready Position! Do This Instead…

Most players are told to always return to the ready position after every stroke but that might be hurting your game. In this video, we reveal a smarter way to recover:

✔ Track the ball immediately after your shot
✔ Move your racket into position for the next shot instead of blindly resetting
✔ Improve your timing, balance, and flow during rallies

Whether you’re a beginner or advanced player, understanding this subtle change can have a big impact on your consistency and speed around the table.
