How to perform sidespin flick with penhold grip?

Hi Nabeel,

The best way to do it is to use the reverse side of your racket.  This has a good angle to make this shot.  The sidespin flick was first used by penholders.  The shakehanders have just tried to copy it.

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.
