Start learning Backhand Topspin
Strokes
DHS Lover Asked 10 years ago
Hi PingSkills
I found that it's very difficult to learn the backhand topspin. So I want to ask how to start learn the technique? Just like the forehand topspin that you told us to hit the ball flat for the first time
Please help me as my backhand is very weak
Thank you^^

Hi Frendy,
Start with a good basic counterhit and slowly add a little spin till the stroke becomes longer and the contact becomes more brushing to generate the topspin.
Take a look at our lesson on the Backhand Topspin Against Block.

I wonder about the start position
In the video the start position is in front of the belly but I saw a lot of players start from their left belly (for right handed)
What do you think about it?
If you have more time you can have a bigger swing and start more from the left.
