Hello everybody. This session I would like to discuss the key points of looping an underspin ball from the forehand side. I saw many people when they loop, they don't use their waist as much. They only use their arm and their body is disconnected. So this week I want to focus on this point. First, we have to understand when we contact the backspin ball, we have less leverage of the incoming energy like a topspin ball. Now first, when they push the ball to us, we have to use the strength from our legs and hip. And when the ball is incoming, many people just swing the arm back right away. This is incorrect. First, you have to relax the shoulder. Next, you want to keep your elbows close to your body. When the ball comes out from the opponent's racket, I first move my hips and legs. I then turn my back and then I swing back the arm. And you want to rotate forward when swinging at the ball. Some people tend to swing the arm like this or swing too low. What you actually need is to swing backwards. Here, I'll demonstrate. My feet need to press down securely to the ground. My two feet and the knees need to be stable. If I'm up tight like this, I won't make good contact with the ball and my loop won't be strong. No matter if I'm doing a driving loop or a spinning loop, I have to make good contact and brush the ball securely. Please watch. Please watch here. This is another very important point when you loop because the balls are bigger now and it has spin. No matter if we do drive or for looping a spinning loop, we're not trying to contact the ball after it drop below the table. We're going to try to loop the ball above the level of the table. That way it's easier to loop. Please remember this is actually very new technique. I'll demonstrate. Watch here. I wait for this ball looping above the table because the ball is less spinny nowadays. It's easier for me to loop and leverage the energy of the incoming ball. Again, I still need to plant my feet and hips securely and then I turn my back backwards. Then using my back to turn forwards first leading my arm forward to loop. If I'm doing a spinny loop, I can wait for the ball a little bit more, but I don't want to be like the old days and wait for the ball to drop below the table and then loop. That's too late. Even if we can loop the ball over the net, it gives our opponent opportunity to attack us. These days, we can wait for the ball just a little bit to this position and then loop. And if we want to loop drive, we can loop right off the bounce. So some important points to remember. First, our shoulders need to be relaxed. Use the strength of the hips and legs to rotate the back and loop forward. Our hand is just acting as an assistant. When the ball comes, our arm follows the body backwards. You want to rotate the body forward as the body is going forward. At the same time, our arm follows and covers the ball.
