Hi,Rosario .

Only one another question "torture" me.

I watched your videо as younger in You Tube and I liked your versatile topspin techniques.

Is there any rotation with the shoulder ( its axis) before and into the contact of the ball?

Hi Il,

Yes, there is rotation of the body from the waist.  So if you are looking from above the body is turning backwards and forwards slightly.

When you need to reach that really wide ball the regular shuffle step just won't get you there in time so you need to use the crossover step. This is essentially a running action to get you to the ball as fast as possible.

I asked for rotation in the  sholder - only.

Not about body-waist detalis.

Sorry Il, not sure what you mean by the rotation of the shoulder.  Just the one shoulder or both?

Yes. Its really uncomfortable to rotate your shoulders without turning your hip though o.O
