Hi! 

My banana flick is going out of table all of the time. My wrist is relaxed and my grip is loosely. I don't know what's wrong. What can be my mistakes? And I'm surprised that you didn't make video about banana flip :)

Hi Kürsat,

If the Banana Flick is going long then try to brush the side of the ball more or even more over the top of the ball.

We have a tutorial on this in our Backhand Sidespin Flick video.
