FH Topspin going long
Strokes
Bram Berg Asked 14 years ago
In the past i've watched your topspin training video, wich was a great help to me! Thx for that! And now some 1,5 year later I've became an attacking player. However my topspin strokes go a few inches over the table half the time... :S
So how to adjust this:
A) Try to make a more horizontal stroke (towards the net and less upwards)
B) Or make the same stroke as I did before (which movement is up and forward in an +- 40 degree angle) but with less speed? (holding back a little)
Thx, in advance!

Hi Bram,
I think the solution is to just turn your bat a little forward. This will get the ball going lower. So probably 'A' is the right answer here.
