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.

Forehand Topspin Variations

A great weapon is being able to vary the amount of speed and spin on your forehand topspin stroke. By making your stroke more vertical and brushing the ball finely, you can generate more spin. For more speed you need to swing more horizontally.

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.
