i've started table tennis about two month ago.

And i've been watching free lesson of this site everyday.( all pages ^^)

And it's really helpful for me. And great thanks to both teachers.

I have one question about wrist angle of forehand stroke of shakehand grip.

My coach ask me to bend the wrist to downword making the end of racket pointing right side

( parallel to the earth surface ) which make me uneasy and feel pain on my wrist.

Is this correct way for forehand stroke ?

Hi,

That is the correct way of having your wrist.  Try to relax your wrist more as this is actually a natural position of the wrist.  When it is relaxed it will get into this position.

Thanks for your kind words about the site.

Slow to Fast Progression

It's important to practice your shots slowly to get the correct technique. That will lead you to being able to hit the ball faster. You do need to practice these faster shots in training before using them in a match.
