Hi Xavier,

You need to start with the basics of the Forehand Topspin Off Backspin.  When the ball is really fast with backspin, then you need to lift even more.  You can do this with a more vertical stroke and you can also open the face of the bat a little more to lift the ball easier.  Also increasing the speed of your action will help you lift the ball.
