@vagabondjx 3 года назад

after hundreds of dollars on coaching, and countless hours watching videos and doing analysis, this is the single video that fixed my back hand!! I seriously want to know where you teach so I can come in person as your videos makes the most sense for someone like me who has to understand the physics of how things work! The lightbulb moment is when you said the back hand rotation is not like the forehand where the none dominant shoulder points forward at contact! Me trying to over rotate was the main cause of the miss-hits!

@danyarbrough828 3 года назад

I watched your video and then put your advice into action hitting against my wife today. I was more consistent and had more power and accuracy. Dozens of instructors, over the years, have told me the two-handed backhand was just like a left handed forehand. Thanks for explaining the differences. I have a league match tomorrow against tough opponents, and I’m looking forward to implementing your advice during that match.

@darnellcaballes 3 года назад

yup I used to do this too! was taking the tip “hit more lefty fh for a better 2hbh” too literally. eventually found that there are many elements of the fh that don’t fit in the 2hbh (like “pat the dog” and being more open at contact)

@LetsBuildThatApp 3 года назад

I'm understanding the shoulder lean and racquet drop after rotation now. Thanks for tips on the following through and left foot placement after the swing. I usually feel like I'm going to fall after a hard swing but this stabilizes the stance a lot.

@WikiPeoples Год назад

Seriously the BEST explanation I've found. You did right to point out that this is NOT like your forehand shot. Most of us learned first to forehand, so its natural to be trying to use similar technique. Explaining it like you did was super helpful, including making clear that we're not expecting any kind of lag in this shot, it's strictly a power from rotation.

@albertlee5439 2 года назад

@espressodawn4000 3 года назад

I've been trying to mimic Djokovic's backhand, but I'm one of those people who is doing it wrong. I did feel my elbow jam up and while I was holding my racket up like Djokovic, my dominant shoulder wasn't dipping low enough. So I tried this today and it improved/fixed my 2HB, giving me a little more power... I was hitting 2-3 ft behind the baseline, with the intention of getting my balls into into No Man's Land. Before, I was hitting the ball with mixed results, getting some into the service box areas, some into no man's land, and moon balls to the fence. But today, I was able to get the ball a lot more consistently into no man's land and much less into the service box areas. I feel my elbow jamming less and my upper body rotating more.... Thank you for another brilliant video!!!

Best explanation and yes two hander is not non-dominant forehand and if u treat it such, you will have wrist and back pain issues as u try to generate power. A backhand is a backhand non dominant arm ( Right for a lefty and left for righty) does have a role to play in it.

@LaBambaCL 3 года назад

personally, my 2hbh improved after gradually shifting dominance to the non-dominant hand. you can see this in many pros who have great 2hbh's -power, spin, directional control. but you can also see many great 2hbh like nik describes. try both, see what benefits you more :)

@YongPet-xp8uf Год назад

Hi Nick, many thanks for your videos, your approach of explaining and analysing things is indeed unique - hats off. One question: do we have any evidence that, for a right-handed person for example, a two-handed backhand is stronger than hitting a forehand with his left hand? (but holding the racket as if he was going to hit a two-handed backhand - so no need to worry about switching grips). A fair comparison in my opinion is to try to compare your normal backhand with your normal forehand but with different grip (and not with a forehand with your left hand - here I assume that with practice, just like Nadal, and ignoring grips, one can have two similar forehands).

@princessoftennis5539 3 года назад

Wow, thank you so much for the useful video!! I was too helpful.

@muyu69 3 года назад

Great stuff. 0:53 you said straightening (or levelling) the leaned shoulders "will naturally drop." In slow motions, however, the left shoulder stays higher than the right shoulder even at the time of the contact. When the drop happened 1:08 , the left shoulder is still clearly higher. I don't think it was "straightened." Rather, the drop happens while the left shoulder remains high. So the drop motion has to be caused by something else, which I suspect is the preparation for the hip rotation. Do you agree or disagree? Besides, I agree with the main point of the video. If we set up the racket in backhand like forehand, the angle between the torso and the racket face would be very different, and you can't make proper contact.

Could you explain when you are supposed to start rotating on the backhand? Why do we need to delay the rotation? Is it to make up for the fact that our hand would be further back than if we were doing a wrist lag on the forehand?

@ceejay257 3 года назад

Is racquet drop natural or do you have to force shoulder to tilt?

@tunguyen825 3 года назад

Hi coach, do you know why most pro don't use a "dog pat" motion in their backhand takeback? (only see Nadal does this) With the racquet on edge at takeback, we can't generate much topspin compared with closing racquet to face the ground.

@DeceitfulDestiny 3 года назад

Wow, amazing breakdown. Love this channel!! So would you recommend against incorporating lefty forehand drill to get feel on your backhand?

@IntuitiveTennis 3 года назад

In that context yes, but generally it’s ok to develop the left side of body by hitting forehands

@GeneralRock114 Год назад

What would you say is the ideal racquet SW for a person using a two handed backhand???

@vanlendl1 3 года назад

I am trying to learn a lefty forehand since about ten years. I always played a single-handed topspin backhand. I never liked a both-handed backhand. The idea with a lefty forehand was at least to be able to attack shorter balls. It is very risky to attack short balls with a single-handed backhand. Especially down the line is difficult with a single-handed backhand.

@nc4310 2 года назад

This lesson is so good, resolving my puzzles. Only that Djokovic's style with the racket backswing from high to low movement feels very unnatural to me. Nadal and Sinner's backhand style is a better fit to me: it is just a simple, leveled backswing with no or very little high positioning. can you comment a bit on this?

@LaBambaCL 3 года назад

watching several pros, i see a variety of 2hbh takebacks eg. vertical looping, fognini is fairly level takeback, and certainly a great 2hbh.

@Fruitmandje20 3 года назад

My 2 handed backhand is my biggest weapon. As I'm 6"5, my movement is my weakest point, so I try to implement the open stance in situations where I have less time, like djokovic does sometimes as well. Do you have any tips for generating power and maintaining a relaxed two handed swing while doing this open stance?

@ramonl6047 3 года назад

Hey Nikola, on a two-handed backhand your dominant arm is barely doing anything because the take back is initiated by your shoulder turn (your backhand stroke). The one-handed backhand, on the other hand, uses the arm more, especially recreational players (I'm a 3.5, probably a weak 4.0 if improve my backhand). I think that's the reason why I developed tennis elbow because of poor technique on a one-handed backhand, too arm(y), in combination with poor footwork. I decided to switch to a two-handed backhand. My question is how many balls does one need to hit to develop a shot, e.g., a two-handed backhand? I think I played my last match this year, it is getting colder. The reason I ask you this is because I am planning to compete in a tournament next year, just a bucket list nothing more.

Hey Ramon, just giving my experience. To improve my serve I practice serving about 400 serves every week. The whole summer.

Two things: 1) is that YOU crushing left-handed forehands??? 2) On the two-hander, is each arm doing equal work, or is one arm "stronger" in the stroke than the other? Asking for a friend, as you know I have a one-hander :)

Nadal I think has one of the most effective backhands. In my experience in playing tennis, the majority of players have a harder time returning topspin than a more flat backhand.

@imateapot51 3 года назад

You obviously can not turn your left shoulder more forward because then the right hand would no longer be holding the racquet. But that is not a reason to make your right arm dominate the shot.
