In this video I demonstrate a very simple technique to loop backspin balls.
I take a look at both the forehand loop and the backhand loop. I also give some tips on how to develop your loops to get more speed and spin.
This video is aimed mostly at beginner / intermediate players who struggle to loop backspin balls.
At the end of the video, you will see some footage of David, aged 75. In our coaching sessions I showed David how to loop backspin with my simple technique and he was soon looping consistently on both his forehand and backhand.
In fact, I think his backhand loop technique is now better than mine!
