As a left-hander i should have my left foot forward?I think when you're playing your forehand, your left foot should be slightly forward than your right foot.
Oops, sorry I didn't see that. Yes but you have your left foot too forward.As a left-hander i should have my left foot forward?
Drink a few pints, film a match vs a slightly better player, and show us the results where you win. We will be happy to analyze the details for you.
Take care of the easy stuff and keep plugging away. Get a good stance. Hit your BH a little closer to your body. Keep your bat up some moar. get down sum moar. Explode sum more for your power shots. Use less arm and more core body on your control shots. Get a coach that will tell you these things and take money. go on forums and show your results of conquering the field and walking off with big paycheck and the girlz. Wake up and realize it is an endless amount of work to be at the pinnacle, but accept the challenge and the fun of it to be continually improving.
Can I do that too? Haha
Thanks buddy. I think you're right as when I do a forehand shot I also seem to generate sidespin because I use my wrist a lot. I've tried to alter it but it does feel very strange.OK, I am no expert so please be gentle with me if I have this wrong. I should probably leave coaching comments to the coaches. It seems to me that with both your forehand and your backhand you are rotating or turning your wrist over somewhat as you hit the shot and this is producing a slight slapping action to your shots. It almost looks like you are playing a kind of half flip type shot. I would suggest trying to keep the plane of the bat constant with no turning over of the wrist through the shot. Just brush the ball with an upwards saluting action up to your forehead. You should then get more top spin which will give more control. This will probably feel really weird to you if you do it right. Take a look at this video...Also I would say that on the forehand you should be moving and changing your foot position when you switch from hitting balls across the table to hitting them down the line. You seem to be changing direction by just altering your wrist/arm action, whereas I think this should stay as constant as possible, alter direction by changing the direction your feet and body are facing in. Hope this makes sense and some real coaches can point it out if I am talking rubbish.
