Hi!
As i play short pimples on backhand and normal on forehand i need to be very fast (like Tan Ruiwu) do you know some drills i can do to get faster but that doesn’t need a table?

Hi Fredrik,
You can do some shadow play where you aren’t using a ball or table and practice switching between the two strokes of backhand and forehand.
Play a full stroke in between each movement from side to side.
Without a table it is limited as to what you can do.

Initially when you are learning a new serve you can just get a bucket of balls and serve over and over again. But at some stage you need to practice your serve exactly as you would play in a match. In this session we focus on this. It's important that you try to make this practice as close to a real match as you can so that when you are in the real thing, you feel comfortable.
