Sir, while doing this stroke, should i use only my arm motion to generate enough spin or should i use my wrist motion to generate more topspin?

Hi Earl,

We have a lesson on the Advanced Forehand Topspin for our Premium members.

You need to use a combination of your whole body in coordination to get the best results of a faster topspin.  The wrist will help in this but don’t try to whip it through too fast.

Strawberry Flick

The strawberry flick is the opposite of the banana flick and involves utilising the wrist to get the ball spinning with topspin and sidespin. Used in conjunction with the banana flick it can be very deceptive. The banana flick is a more reliable stroke and that's why you see more top players using it over the strawberry flick.
