How to do a counter smash
Strokes
Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Asked 5 years ago
Hi there, I was wondering how I could perform a counter smash on a 'No Spin' smash. I've seen many players do this so any advice would help thank you.

Hi Hare,
This is a very difficult thing to do. I think first think about watching the ball carefully as they smash so that you get the best chance to see it. Then try to contact the ball at it's highest point of its trajectory and hit the ball flat back.

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:
- Your feet position
- Your start position
- 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.
