I mean… I generally say you can broadly either use a ping pong loop or a tennis fh to do a successful pb fh drive. This video seems to be an abbreviated tennis fh (you're wrist lagging with basically an abbreviated backswing). My comment would be if you come from tennis use an abbreviated version of your fh (presetting paddle down VS a modern fh load is a personal balance between power/spin/accuracy). Agree that for tennis players < 4.5 the preset you demonstrate here probably correct (same for 2hbh drive). For ping pong players just use your fh loop. If people come from neither this is great tho!
Imo you get a lot more power and topspin if you cock back the wrist, and whip through the shot. Only downside is that amateurs struggle to time the contact, but it definitely makes your drives so much harder to return back
Tennis player I know uses a cocked wrist and has the best drive I’ve ever seen in person
Awesome Vid, Mr.T!!!!
Why don’t you want to cock with your forehand?
I love your videos the best. Short and sweet and clear. Thanks.
