Hi Alois/Jeff,

I saw your video, that you curve the ball by forehand. Can we curve the ball by backhand?  If so can you show it on a video?

Hi Soma,

You certainly can curve it with your backhand.

Have a big swing and a good brushing action.  We will see if we can get around to showing it to you on a video.

Stop Coming Back to Ready Position! Do This Instead…

Most players are told to always return to the ready position after every stroke but that might be hurting your game. In this video, we reveal a smarter way to recover:

✔ Track the ball immediately after your shot
✔ Move your racket into position for the next shot instead of blindly resetting
✔ Improve your timing, balance, and flow during rallies

Whether you’re a beginner or advanced player, understanding this subtle change can have a big impact on your consistency and speed around the table.

Neat. Although is there a way to make the ball spin with both types of sidespin with the backhand?

YOu could lift the end of your racket up and curve the ball the other way.
