How to loop heavy spin High over the net aganst backspin
Hi Hugo,
Your stroke needs to be quite vertical and brush up the back of the ball more than forward to generate the spin and also to get the ball higher over the net.
This can be an effective stroke when used as a variation. Try to mix this up with a faster lower topspin to keep your opponent guessing.
