Slow spinny topspin

Peter Habich Asked 12 years ago

Hi Jeff and Alois,

I could be wrong.But is it possible that you have no video about the exact technique of a slow spinny topspin? You already have a video about receiving this kind of stroke.

Or is the technique quite the same as that of receiving a backspin ball that means moving the bat more vertical?

Thanks and regards

Peter

Hi Peter,

I think you may be right.  I will check through and check Jeff's memory as well.  If not we will have to get onto it.

The main thing is to have a more vertical swing and a really thin brushing contact.  If you have too much forward motion the ball will go too fast.
