Playing either right or left hand
Strokes
Rodrigo Aromas Asked 7 years ago
Alois,
I play with right hand and I am 1400 level. About a month now, I've been practicing playing left hand and getting better. My plan, is I'll playing either hand during the match. For example, left hand serve short backhand to my opponent's forehand and switch to my right hand for smash, counter hit or flip. after my opponent return my serve. Any pro or con on this strategy?
Thank you in advance,
Rodrigo

Hi Rodrigo,
I would tend to just using one hand to focus on with your training. In a match it is difficult to get the time to switch hands.
Every now and then you can do a little with your other hand but you will find that it is difficult to develop both sides. You are naturally dominant on one side.
The time you spend working on the other side would be better spent on your dominant side.

Forehand Topspin Variations
A great weapon is being able to vary the amount of speed and spin on your forehand topspin stroke. By making your stroke more vertical and brushing the ball finely, you can generate more spin. For more speed you need to swing more horizontally.
