Hi guys.  Once I'm comfortable with the most important skill (keeping the ball on the table) what are the first strokes/shot I should develop and perfect?  It is a drive, loop, block, what?

 

Cheers

Hi Rufuss,

We recommend going through the videos in the order they are presented in our Strokes & Techniques section.

How important are the angles of your bat when playing the forehand topspin? Is it acceptable to swing through low?

Thanks Jeff.  I had a close look at the video list and the progression logic is clear.  What level of consistency should I aim for in each stroke before introducing a new one?

You don't need a strict target, and sometimes it's good to try and sneak ahead a little bit but as a guide try to get 20 balls on in a row.
