Topspin
Strokes
mat huang Asked 13 years ago
Hi,
I'm just wondering something. My coach likes me not to put my hand so behind when doing the topspin. ( starting position.
He tends to ask me to do that because he says you could a lower throw over the net and also you dont get that much time in a real game. I think he is definitely right, but i can't generate much spin
Pls help me to think of some ways to add spin to it. He also tells me to use more of the forearm so dont use the upperarm
Thanks

Hi Mat,
Your coach is right on all those matters.
To get more spin just hit the ball a bit finer. Spin is more about the contact rather than the length of your swing.

True, swing is genrally speed and he thinks a long topspin with lots of topspin will already be really hard to block. Thanks
