Attacking fast backspin pushes
Strokes
Ethan Lee Asked 10 years ago
Hi,
I'm having trouble attacking a fast push, and the ball usually goes flying off the side of my racquet out of play, because of this, I'm having a lot of trouble attacking those longer serves and pushes. Is there any way I can get over this, and why is this happening?
Thanks!

Hi Ethan,
It sounds like you are a little late in your swing. Try to shorten the swing and make it more vertical to lift the ball over the net. This will get you to the ball a little earlier and hopefully eliminate the top edges.
Don’t try to do too much with it at first, just focus on the lifting.
