Wrist tension
Strokes
Ben Ben Asked 11 years ago
Hello, I have a HUGE tournament coming up and my wrists are a bit rusty, what are some good stretches for the wrists that will loosen up my wrists so i don't have a tight feeling when i serve or smash?
-Sincerely,
Ben W.

Hi Ben,
I think the first thing is to focus on the tension in your wrists rather than the stretching. Try to relax them as much as you can while you are away from the table. Some players find shaking them around helps.

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.
