What is the bird loop? I saw Alois use it in a match.

Well it is a bit of a joke really. If you watch the video you'll see at around 30 seconds (and then a slow motion reply at around 50 seconds) where Alois hits a forehand loop. His technique on this shot is a bit unusual and we started to call this the bird loop because he gets both arms in the air like he was a bird about to flap down and fly away.

The no spin loop is a good variation that can be effective even at the highest level. Watch as we show you how to get this stroke right.
