Hi Alois,

Do we need keep our hand soft or we need to make our hand stiff when doing a flipping stroke? 

Which one will give more consistency when doing a flipping stroke ?

Hi Ernest,

Keep your hand relaxed to allow your wrist to work as well.  Take a look at the new lesson we have on the Forehand Flick to see the movements of the arm and hand.
