Strokes
Hi Aloise,
I have noticed many players returning backspin ball with, topspin by moving only their wrist very effectively. I tried it, but ball is going here and there. Can you tell me how to do it.
Hi Aasim,
It is best to use your arm as well because you will develop much better control of the ball. If you only use your wrist it becomes a very risky stroke.
Take a look at our lesson on Forehand Topspin Off Backspin to see the correct action to make the stroke effectively.
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.
