Hey clay this video helped a lot with my topspin backhand and I really
appreciate it ! I just bought a babolat today and tried it out and I
noticed a massive change in my game from a “spin” perspective .. But I’m
having a nightmare with my serves I can’t get them to land in the service
box. They either go behind the line towards the base line or go straight
deep into the doubles ally. If you could please make a video on how to get
the ball in the service box a good amount of times. It’s been bugging me
lately. Thank you and hope to see more videos!
In the interest of helping others understand this stroke ……just RELAX
YOUR GRIP!!
The weight of the racquet head raises upward to the top of the loop by way
of the shoulder.The forearm then relaxes with the help of gravity and
momentum thus allowing the wrist to naturally drop. The eyes tracking the
ball give direction for the shoulder to accelerate for timing and
trajectory while the opposite arm is used for a counter weight to keep the
racquet arm from swinging and pulling the body open and across. IMPORTANT!!
BACK IS STRAIGHT AND STANCE IS BALANCED!! Wrist? Relaxed and only moving
naturally by the momentum of the stroke!! No need for snap!!
Clay, look at Dimitrov’s wrist action here – what is that? He’s going from
extended to almost flexed at contact. What position should the wrist have
at contact? It looks like he gives a little extension right at contact.
HI Clay,
I think I’ve watched just about every single handed backhand video on the
web, and I must say that yours is the best!. Great technical detail for
those of us who are cursed with the need to constantly analyze our strokes
can i ask a question about the doorknob motion?
do we do the doorknob motion when we hit the ball or before hit the
ball(during the period of lower the raquet to the contact position).
thanks.
Hi Clay, I’m enjoying your videos. Do you have anything on the two-handed
backhand? I grew up hitting a one-hander, but lately I’ve been trying to
master the two-hander.
Your series on one-handed backhand is by far the best I’ve ever seen, and
I’ve seen plenty. What your instructions superior to others is you teach
muscle movements and explain reasons for them. Such knowledge helps me to
diagnose my own strokes when they get out of the form.
What’s number of grip for the backhand one hand in this video??? By the
way, what’s number of grip in video “How to Get Your Kick Serve to Drop
Like a Boomerang!”??? (from 1-8). Thanks so much
Great videos.
king salmon from Lake Michigan….great fun! Good Fall memories to help get
me through the Winter :)
Thanks for making this video, Clay. You’re a great teacher.
Hello!
Let me know what is happening with my elbow during the backhand movement:
when it is fully bend? when is it totally extend?
