Strokes
When it backspin on the ball, can I have more open racket and touch the ball on the hit?
Hi Tobias,
When the ball has backspin, you can open the angle of your racket more to lift the ball over the net. You can do this with either a push or a topspin stroke.
Our advice is to avoid the backhand smash and play the forehand smash instead. However if you do get caught out and need to play it, watch this video to learn the right technique to use.
