Hi Alois and Jeff
I want to share an awesome video and have a question related to it.
The video is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MQuR6lMJnLU
How to do those shots at 1:30 and 4:33
Can I know your favorite moment in the video.
Alois and Jeff One more question for you both. At which age you both participated in your first tournament.

Hi Tushar,
Thanks for sharing.
Both shots are by Michael Maze who has amazing abilities. The first one is still sidespin shot but he just uses his wrist rather than his whole arm to make the shot. We have a lesson on the Sidespin Forehand Topspin.
The second is a backhand sidespin shot. For our Premium members we do have a video response on the Ask the Coach page to show you the Backhand sidespin. Curve with Backhand.
