Strokes
When does topspin stroke have any forward movement, i mean when do you move your arm forward towards the ball and when just vertical? thx in advance
Hi Sally,
When the ball has backspin or you want to play a slower topspin the stroke can be more vertical.
When the ball has topspin or you want to play the ball faster you can move your arm more horizontally.
Question actions
Most players are told to always return to the ready position after every stroke but that might be hurting your game. In this video, we reveal a smarter way to recover:
✔ Track the ball immediately after your shot
✔ Move your racket into position for the next shot instead of blindly resetting
✔ Improve your timing, balance, and flow during rallies
Whether you’re a beginner or advanced player, understanding this subtle change can have a big impact on your consistency and speed around the table.
