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.

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
