Hi Alois,

I'm looking in the internet regarding the video demonstration of right foot work from pivot attack using forehand loop in the backhand side and crossover to the forehand side using forehand loop.

I saw this video below.  As per observation, he already taken the shot before landing in the position. Is it ok ? or same principle apply, you should be in the position first and then take the shot.

Please advice and if some video taken from your side would be highly appreciated.

thanks

Hi Gener,

Usually it is best to be stable when you play your shot.  In this case it an extreme situation where you need to try to reach the extremely wide ball.

It is OK here to be still moving to make the shot.  Take a look at the lesson we have on Moving Out Wide in our Master Classes.
