Hi,

I have been playing tt for a few years now, however, I still do not know how to brush the ball. May I know if the feeling of brushing the ball is as though u can barely even feel the ball? Also, you said that when u brush the ball, u should have a fast contact. However, i see the professional players, and u, having slow (not very slow) contact. Why is this so?

Hi Hao,

The brushing contact is like a feeling of making a wheel turn around by using your bat with the ball being a wheel. 

We have a lesson in our Serving Secrets lessons on Learning To Spin which will help our Premium members.

In our  free lesson on Understanding Spin you will see the wheel I am talking about.

Backhand Topspin Against Block

We delve into the essential techniques for executing a consistent backhand topspin against a block. We cover three critical aspects:​

  1. Foot Position: Ensuring a stable and balanced stance to facilitate quick movements.​ 
  2. Start Position: Positioning your racket and body correctly to initiate the stroke effectively.​ 
  3. Finish Position: Completing the stroke in a way that prepares you for the next shot.​ 

Additionally, we discuss how to adjust your bat angle if the ball goes long, emphasizing the importance of maintaining the same start and finish positions without coming across your body.​

Whether you're a beginner aiming to build a solid foundation or an advanced player looking to refine your technique, this comprehensive guide is designed to enhance your game.
