Starting lower on forehand topspin against backspin

Strokes

eugene lu Asked 10 years ago

Hi alois,

When doing the forehand topspin against backspin. We start lower below our knee, but how are we achieving this? Do we start lower by dropping our arm below the knee, or squatting down with your legs?

Hi Eugene,

Extend your arm and bend your knees a little more to get the bat starting lower.
