Slow spinny topspin
Strokes
Peter Habich Asked 13 years ago
Hi Jeff and Alois,
I could be wrong.But is it possible that you have no video about the exact technique of a slow spinny topspin? You already have a video about receiving this kind of stroke.
Or is the technique quite the same as that of receiving a backspin ball that means moving the bat more vertical?
Thanks and regards
Peter

Hi Peter,
I think you may be right. I will check through and check Jeff's memory as well. If not we will have to get onto it.
The main thing is to have a more vertical swing and a really thin brushing contact. If you have too much forward motion the ball will go too fast.
