Forehand side swipe

Strokes

Bryan Lee Asked 8 years ago

Hi pingskills

So I was watching Quadri Aruna vs Zhang Jike and saw Quadri doing a side swipe off Zhang's pendulum serve. How does he keep the ball so controlled? When I tried the ball went all over the place. Is the forehand side swipe better off a normal pendulum or reverse pendulum?

Thank you very much?

Hi Bryan,

It is a risky stroke against either but I would find it easier off the Pendulum serve as the ball is coming in towards the bat.
