Hey there,

Whenever I have a competition, I give my opponent a pure sidespin serve. He returns it at a reasonable height that can be attacked. However, the ball always either goes out, or it goes straight into the net.   Am I supposed to hit or rub the ball more when I attack.

Hi Aden,

If you are looking at making it more consistent then brush the ball more.  This will give you more topspin and margin for error.

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.
