Strokes and Technique
Dear PingSkills,
I am trying to practice rotating my torso to generate more power in forehand topspin strokes. Do I need to use the torso for both fast and slow strokes? Is it good to keep the elbow position relative to body consistent throughout the stroke for more shot accuracy?
Kenneth
Hi Kenneth,
You can use your torso with both fast and slower strokes. Just the speed of the rotation and extent will vary.
The elbow will stay relatively similar but there will need to be an extension at the end of the topspin stroke. If you are playing a slow controlled stroke you can keep the elbow in a similar relative position.
