Strokes
Hi, what is the difference between a loop, drive and smash? Could you explain the technical difference as well in executing the 2 different techniques?
Hi JinMeng,
A drive has more topspin, the smash is a flatter contact and faster shot.
The drive you would contact the ball with more of a brushing action and have a more vertical action. The smash you start with your bat higher and come through more horizontally.
Learn how to use your wrist, forearm, and hips to generate more speed on your backhand topspin.
