The wall is my favorite practice partner! It rarely complains and is always ready to play. I spend on average 2 hours a day on the wall . I practice every thing - serves, backhand, forehand, slices, overheads, volleys, running volleys, running forehands and backhands, approach shots, drop shots. I’m the only one in my club that uses this valuable training tool! Sad ! It’s no wonder their technique sucks! I developed my own techniques because of my training mentality. My Forehand is devastating! My serve powerful ! My Backhand precise ! You need to be an athlete to work the wall ! Most people don’t have the patience for athleticism!

@@gabypaztennis i've only been playing 10 months and cant really practice cuz i only hit forehands when i play and i just do what I know to keep the ball in play...cuz you know i have a teammate and ya can't "practice" in a game. but it would be interesting to see what ideas ya have.
Try doing these exercises. It will help. But start from the mini tennis and feel it first. I’ll be doing more specific drills to progressively get better at this.
I practice often with wall. I use softer balls , go back 6 m, and trie to play topspin with some hight. These make it more realistic and I have the time to use my body more....
This is great, thank you! I used to practice at my local wall (at a football pitch) but the security guards didn’t like it. I may give this another go. 👍
Yeah finding a suitable wall within the city is extremely hard, even so once you find a so precious wall, nowadays with security cameras everywhere, they no use the wall area but u cant play too! 😢 People are so strict now, things go by black n white management rules, no more friendliness and knowing each other in old neighbourhood, those human warmth are gone! Bye bye!🥶
@@gabypaztennis yes the high schools are open for students, but lock the gates soon after sessions are done. Wish the community courts would install back walls.
