I have been watching Seoul player Joo Se Hyuk. I think he's being recognized as one of the best chop players in the world.

How can I improve the chopping techniques ?

I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Hi Alex,

Joo Se Hyuk is one of my favourite players to watch.  I love his technique.

We have some lessons on the chop strokes that you will be able to watch and learn from.  Take a look at Forehand Chop and Backhand Chop in our Strokes and Techniques section of our Lessons page.

Backhand Topspin Against Block

We delve into the essential techniques for executing a consistent backhand topspin against a block. We cover three critical aspects:​

  1. Foot Position: Ensuring a stable and balanced stance to facilitate quick movements.​ 
  2. Start Position: Positioning your racket and body correctly to initiate the stroke effectively.​ 
  3. Finish Position: Completing the stroke in a way that prepares you for the next shot.​ 

Additionally, we discuss how to adjust your bat angle if the ball goes long, emphasizing the importance of maintaining the same start and finish positions without coming across your body.​

Whether you're a beginner aiming to build a solid foundation or an advanced player looking to refine your technique, this comprehensive guide is designed to enhance your game.
