Hi Alois,

1. Can u tell me when we do more vertical stroke and when we do a more forward stroke in performing a topspin stroke ?

2. Would you also show me the angle of the bat regarding my questions in number 1 ?

Thanks

Hi Ernest,

To get more speed you can swing more forward and for a slower spinner topspin you can swing more vertically.

We do have a Premium Ask the coach video response to this. Forehand Topspin Bat Angle which will talk about the angle that you require and how to get it right.

Strawberry Flick

The strawberry flick is the opposite of the banana flick and involves utilising the wrist to get the ball spinning with topspin and sidespin. Used in conjunction with the banana flick it can be very deceptive. The banana flick is a more reliable stroke and that's why you see more top players using it over the strawberry flick.
