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.

In this video we talk about the position of your legs, weight transfer, varying the finish position, incorporating footwork, the use of your wrist, and the angle of your bat for the stroke.
