Problem With Backhand
Strokes
Saketh R Asked 13 years ago
Hi Alois and Jeff,
I use sriverEL and yasaka mark V.
I am not able to generate more speed on my backhand topspin even if I put my maximum power.
My forehand is very fast and the opponent can hit back my backhand topspin.

Hi Saketh,
Try to hit the ball just a little flatter. You still need to put spin on the ball but by hitting it flatter you can get the ball to move faster.
Also try hitting more forward on the ball. This will tend to increase the speed.
