Smashing lower balls
Strokes
Ali Mammadov Asked 7 years ago
How can I smash the ball when it is coming at a low height and is it the right time to do it?

Hi Ali,
It is best to attempt to make a small when the ball is at shoulder height or higher. Against a lower ball you are working with a low margin for error.
Take a look at our tutorial on the Forehand Smash.

Strawberry Flick
The strawberry flick is the opposite of the banana flick and involves utilising the wrist to get the ball spinning with topspin and sidespin. Used in conjunction with the banana flick it can be very deceptive. The banana flick is a more reliable stroke and that's why you see more top players using it over the strawberry flick.
