FYB2007 question:

are the first forehands somewhat of a variation of the windshield wiper ? and the last one is a plain flat forehand ?

I kinda hit similar to this and would like to improve my technique

thanks for posting this material and you lessons. I follow them and watch them every day

[FYB2007]

yep you're right. good eye! thx for the nice comments.

[isselman2000]

I think you have more to learn from the no. 1 player in the world than he has to learn from you.

[MysteriousStealthMan]

@liedetecter2000 lol no i was random trolling the videos.

[liedetecter2000]

for those who think he's using his wrists to get additional speed, just to let u no, roger's wrist is relexed. like, no muscle movement relaxed. so, why does roger's racquet get incredible flex that looks like its coming from the wrist?

because he is using his legs, trunks and an INCREDABLE amount of shoulder turn that makes his wrist into a trampoline affect. he takes his arm back, and in the moment after the swing, the racquet just FLYS forward. if you do this in the correct way, you'll b GOD.

[liedetecter2000]

@nasnek Do you honestly think this vid is fake????!!!

[itskpham]

every1 stop at 0:09 are u suppose to hav ur arm bent lik tat and hav the head of the racket facing the back of the court when u hit a forehand? cuz i've seen novak and nadal do the same thing or do u only do that when ur hitting wit a lot of topspin? cuz in the forehand findamentals u (Will) didnt tellus tat but in the forehand progressions u told us tat

[dmvbff]

wow even though its in slowmotion it still has alot of spin

[showbiz216]

@Khodirev I don't mean after contact, I mean just prior to contact he drops the wrist about 3-4 inches, pretty substantially and noticably, something other players don't do.

[nasnek]

FAKE!!

[Khodirev]

@noobsdumb No, the wrist must be laid back at the point of contact. The racquet speed comes from the trunk and legs.
