How to lob with backhand
Strategy
John Kao Asked 5 years ago
Hello Pingskills,
In the court where I train, there is only 2 meter's space around the table. I don't have time to react when lobbing, and only getting the smashes when I am lucky. Also, when the opponents smash to my backhand, I automatically try to use my forehand like a penholder even though I am a shakehander. How do I catch smashes that go long or to my backhand side?
Thanks as always,
John

Hi John,
Especially when you are dealing with a small space to work with you should take a look at the tutorial on I Can't Return That Smash!. I thin it will get you to look at it differently.
You can also take a look at the tutorial on the Lob.
