Push off bounce
Strokes
John cena Asked 10 years ago
I was told that when pushing backspin, I should try to guide the ball right after the bounce. Does this negate some of the backspin? Should I always look to return it before the peak of the bounce or is it a situational thing. Thanks!

Hi John,
When yo push the ball early off the bounce it gives your opponent less time. I think it is a harder shot to play though because it is difficult to get the timing right off the bounce.

Slow to Fast Progression
It's important to practice your shots slowly to get the correct technique. That will lead you to being able to hit the ball faster. You do need to practice these faster shots in training before using them in a match.

It's easier to wait until the ball has lost some more spin, though if you wait for too long you have a harder time passing the net because the ball is low
