Strokes
Hi Alois, i was wondering how can i make a very fast smash? because i remember last year i played somebody who played and what he did was, when the ball was high: 1. He closed his angle of the bat, 2. he went pure fast, 3. the ball went so fast it left me a bruce. How can i do this and also how can i maximize my smash speed?
thanks for reading!
Hi Paswuale,
To get more speed you need to flatten out the contact slightly. By hitting the ball flatter you will generate more spin and less spin. If that is the effect you want on that ball, then hit it flatter. Take a look at our lesson on the Forehand Smash.
The strawberry flick is the opposite of the banana flick and involves utilising the wrist to get the ball spinning with topspin and sidespin. Used in conjunction with the banana flick it can be very deceptive. The banana flick is a more reliable stroke and that's why you see more top players using it over the strawberry flick.
