The topspin I use

Strokes

Whenever I do a topspin, I swipe the air with the bat from the ground then above the table.

Is that right?

Hi Caleb,

YOudon't need to start that low.  Take a look at our lesson on the Forehand Topspin Against Block see where we recommend you to start your stroke.  If there is backspin on the ball you can start lower but not at ground level.

Where did you get your bat from Forehand topspin on deep chop.

Forehand Counterhit

The forehand counterhit or forehand drive is the foundation for more attacking strokes such as the forehand topspin or forehand loop. There are 3 critical factors:

  1. Your feet position
  2. Your start position
  3. Your finish position

If you concentrate on these 3 factors then your stroke will become extremely consistent. Once you can reliably hit 100 balls in a row then you are ready for more attacking strokes. If you can hit 1,000 balls on in a row then you know you've truly mastered the stroke.
