Strokes
Alois sir can Harimoto backhand technique be used to return serves like backhand serve or pendulum serve?
Hi Aditya,
Yes it can if the ball is long or high enough.
You will notice he uses a version of his backhand on a a lot of his returns, using his wrist well to generate the spin and lift on the ball to get an effective topspin.
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.
