The next step after hitting the ball forward is to add top spin. That's the only way to hit a forehand or a backhand fast and keep it in the court. This is the second key to developing tennis technique.

  • I agree with the top comments but it would be nice if there was some verbal instructions to go with this video for us beginners who watch this and, like me, are thinking "ok...wtf is he doing?"

  • Man stands up too early in the shot stay low until the shot finishes. Also this is a good drill but make sure you finish the shot, not stop in the middle of the swing.

  • he is dancing with the racket! he is completely wasted and now he is wasting our time!! :@

  • i think it would be to fast to hit like that in a match lol

  • hahahhahaahhahahahahhahahahaha­hahhahahahahhahahahahahahhahah­ahahahhahahahahahahahhahahahah­ahhahahahahahahhahahahahhahaha­hahahhahahahahahahahaha, idiotttttttttttttttttttttttttt­t

  • by the comments here ,everyone seems to know how to hit or advise to hit the perfect Forehand ?

  • how is it everyone can put shit on everyone here!! Everytime i try Utube Cancels

  • @TrippyCow i agree look at nadal...look at how much he uses his wrists..notice how he drops the actual racket and accerlerates with wrist motion..of course his arm helps with thats not the main source of how he generates his spin

  • @TrippyCow I'm not arguing about the low to high motion, thats correct. What im saying is that the source of that motion should be mainly from the wrist...you should brush the ball from low to high with wrist action..any arm movement is secondary...you arent gonna get a lot of spin if you have a static wrist and move just your arm from low to high.

  • This guy is really not doing it right. Topspin is generated from wrist acceleration, not the actual movement of the arm from low to high.
