awsome top

spin

[3DGNumberOneFan]

Too bad it isn't good anymore... :/ sick and fucking tired of Nole Nole Nole

[Oanatinus]

Nadal has always had an amazing forehand, so I'd never really noticed how good his backhand is until recently. It's a very underrated shot. His technique is perfect and he hits the ball really early and hard. It's actually very similar to Andre Agassi's backhand. Anyone else notice that?

[phnx90]

@haithxbai I'm positive he uses a SW forehand, Eastern/Conti backhand.

He takes the ball on the rise, negating the -need- to go western.

[chrism4n14]

@haithxbai Also 'Cause he is a righty, but plays left tennis, he can have this cool ability to be late on his backhand, but because his right hand is dominant, he can still hit cross-court. :)

Also as a little question... Does Nadal's backhand grip on his left hand stay the same? I mean he puts his index knuckle on the 3rd bevel for his forhand i think, does he put that knuckle on the 3rd for backhands as well? Because I do and my backhands are working out pretty nicely.

[2kool4myskool]

the most awesome backhand in tennis

[HELLSACOOLTODD]

@haithxbai Oh okay, cool. Thanks for your reply :).

[HELLSACOOLTODD]

@haithxbai What do you mean?

[cooldaddy6567]

if rafa had fed's backhand he would be unstoppable

[infoowetrust]

@cooldaddy6567 thats why nadall hits everything to feds bachand... lol

[camweezy5]

Nadal backhand is under rated. He should get his props for having so much topspin.

[EternalChaos000]

Lol, not too much.

If you notice, he's a right handed dominate normally, but left handed in tennis.

So for his backhand he has this huge open stance = more topspin, and he hits incredibly hard if he flattens out

[bananatree1234567]

@camweezy5 isnt he known for his good backhand? besides his good footwork ofcourse

[wind1357]

pronation causes the stroke to look longer for topspin purpose

[BWpepperr]

oh,good one!

[ThexThunderer]

0:45 XD

[sepa0202]

what happens at 0:45?

[dice017]

he miss hit the ball right on the frame! !

[narutoman44]

this is exactly how i hit my backhand i keep my raquet head a little closed and use footwork and bend my knees when i hit

[gigatron4]

what a coincidence!!..mine is exactly the same!!..except that mine is way more powerful..incredible, isn't it?

[animaanimaanima]

lol, i bet u got more topspin too ^^

[oggy112]

nadal's achilles heel = his knee

[Juddenmar]

@oggy112 Wouldnt that make it his Achilles knee? haha

[SSJPeter]

Federer's backhand is much prettier!

[tolendoi123]

look at that knee bend nice form man^_^

[FrostyTheBeerMan]

Great video Fuzzy !

[TheLittlestRiceball5]

does he use continental(left) and semi-western(right)?? it looks like it from his backswing

[BWpepperr]

His racket face seems closed on his backhand.Maybe an eastern BH grip.

[Level7even]

It looks like an eastern grip to me, western can be hard to do as a backhand, especially for a guy like him who has a lot of power but then again he is number 1

[BWpepperr]

I've read in tennis mags that he uses full western, and that supposedly is how he generates so much spin

[Gman6755]

Excellent video again, Fuzzy!! Very well done and in HD!!! Love it!!

[Leziii]

Nadal's backhand is probably better than Nalbandian's by now

[hyperwarrior]

But Nalbandian has a prettier backhand!!!

[Kingportable]

I prefer Federer but speaking about backhands i prefer Nadal

[kbmorrison100]

nalbandian's backhand is clearly the best, it's very natural, But rafa's backhand in last year RG was ridiculous, I think both he and Roger's backhands depends on their confidence at the moment, intead nalbandian use his backhand to improve his confidence, that is his main shot
