Topspin

Strokes

Jimi Villanueva Asked 12 years ago

Good day! :D

What are the different variations of topspin? .. what is the difference of a forehand loop from a forward topspin ?

Hi Jimi,

There are not a lot of differences. They become extensions of each other. There is no definitive cut off point when a topspin becomes a loop.

In general a loop tends to be a slower travelling shot that has more spin. The stroke is more vertical to make this happen. They both have a low to high action and a brushing contact.
