Hi Alois I want to ask you :

1.Is there any difference in forehand topspin and forhand loop ? If yes ,what ?

2.What exactly is the power pocket ? What means inside the power pocket and outside the power pocket?

Thanks a lot

Hi Alexandar,

There is no real difference between a loop and a topspin.  The loop is often referred to as the higher slower topspin stroke.  They are just different variations of the topspin stroke.

The Power pocket is just a term that some players use for the spot where you like to hit the ball from.  It is also known as the Hitting Zone.

Forehand Counterhit

The forehand counterhit or forehand drive is the foundation for more attacking strokes such as the forehand topspin or forehand loop. There are 3 critical factors:

  1. Your feet position
  2. Your start position
  3. Your finish position

If you concentrate on these 3 factors then your stroke will become extremely consistent. Once you can reliably hit 100 balls in a row then you are ready for more attacking strokes. If you can hit 1,000 balls on in a row then you know you've truly mastered the stroke.
