Hi Lukas,

He is quite straight on for the forehand.  He uses his whole body and has a good balanced base.  He uses his upper body well.

I really like his backhand though.  I think the top players try to exploit his forehand side because his backhand is so strong.

Strawberry Flick

The strawberry flick is the opposite of the banana flick and involves utilising the wrist to get the ball spinning with topspin and sidespin. Used in conjunction with the banana flick it can be very deceptive. The banana flick is a more reliable stroke and that's why you see more top players using it over the strawberry flick.
