look at that racket head speed

@tennisprodigy11 The followthrough is a byproduct of what the player wanted to do with the ball. U12 kids should be exposed to all the fh intentions vis a vis speed, spin, direction, height and length. What followthrough is needed for any one of those variables will show up naturally eg. hardly at all for a fh drop shot or around the hip for a drive.

@tennisprodigy11 I'll agree that it may be a bad example for kids in that they will most likely notice the wrist snap and emulate that, but to an extent, the followthrough is not necessarily a bad thing to notice. Yes, kids should probably first start learning over the shoulder, but with those new foam balls and stuff, coming over the ball a little more is something that they can afford to learn earlier. Everything else in feds forehand is sound and easier to emulate than a lot of tour pros.

Did that forehand go in or out.

@tennisprodigy11 I copied it as well as I could and I came out with some booming forehands. Bad example? Who doesn't want Fed's forehand.

@tennisprodigy11 doesnt it mean that we need a new example then?
