wawrinka backhand grip

He prepares pretty similar to Federer, by resting the racket on a "tabletop". It's seems one commonality that almost all pro's have in their forehand takeback is at some point they all get to that super closed racquetface position. As Carol mentioned, seems like the extension of the thumb parallel to the handle gives much more support and stability to the wrist in zeroing in on the strike zone with proper racquet orientation, all resulting in much better direction and consistency. I'd much rather teach people to move forward to catch the ball on the rise, at the same time allowing them to transfer their weight forward as well for additional power and stability. Well- described, clear and helpful- Thanks!

Ian is the only one I actually do. 10 !!! Thanks. I might add that with the more fluid backhand stroke you teach, esp. I was wondering why you kept putting your right hand into your pocket. Excellent video thank you. The NY Times actually had a great piece on his backhand last year. Follow through: don’t use a short, tight, choppy follow through anymore! Find out how to move your feet to deal with those tough, high shots. I believe this to be crucial to a successful one handed backhand. Moving up or back so ball is played somewhere between shoulder and knee puts you on the path to be consistent and more power each time you hit the ball. You're too kind, Rick. Stan is the man of the Winter so far…. I absolutely love taking the ball on the rise. Thx for the informative video. I have been told that the left hand should stay on the racket all the way up to right before you make contact.

I think your tips and lessons are extremely well presented and easy to understand. He plays with what he likes. Correct me if I'm wrong but I make an effort on my one handed to open or explode through my chest which results in both arms lifting high to shoulder height. Especially the one about contact point.

I'll work on your 3 tips. Wonderful lesson. Muchas gracias. Like the way it linked to the way Stan hits the ball. Will try the follow through. But the wrist is definitely bent up towards the outside of the elbow. Just the info I needed. Good review. Nice! In my opinion he won by keep his strokes as deep as they could go while Djokovic landed more at service line. Thanks. Actually, I'd say it looks a lot like Djokovic's (barring the footwork, of course). Makes a lot of sense. Work with the Essential Tennis Team in person!

Look forward to apply the lesson on the court. Thanks for the positive feedback. Ian Nice lesson gives me a few things to work into my game as I try and develop more spin on the backhand side. Ian, Thanks again…Glad that Stan is keeping the one hander in the Top 10! Another good video – 3 things that I'm sure will help me with my backhand, which has become a more dangerous weapon and with these additional tips will make it better. thank you Jim. I think this is a valuable tool in my tool box for my students and myself as well. You even have it in your pocket while hitting. I use a one handed backhand and struggle with timing especially if the opponent has hit a shot with heavy topspin. You really have a talent for breaking down what can be complicated mechanics into easy steps to follow. They both use semi-western grips while hitting relatively flat. I recommend any comfortable variation of the "eastern backhand grip". Thanks Ian. It's often a great approach shot when hit cross court with depth. EXCELLENT LESSON THANK'S SO MUCH. i see Wawrinka actually in a continental, though it's high in the bevel, but not quite an eastern BH grip, in slo-mos of him! Glad you enjoyed it, Carol! Dr. Mohan George. Ian. Thanks. Thanks. The three pointers you suggest will help me avoid that rushed and jammed feeling. what grip do you recommend for the one handed backhand. I don't see anything fundamentally different, although his preparatory loop backwards might be more compact that usual. Thanks for the tips. It would be much easier to see from the side. When it comes to still making a good swing on the run I find that a lot of it boils down to coordinating correctly between the upper and lower body. On my forehand, it's definitely easier. You are so right about positioning. very helpful! This is also perhaps the simplest thing to remember of all when it comes to backhands — the BACK in BACKhand is all about showing some back to the net before making the shot. Take another look at the lesson and see if you don't agree. Contact point: I’ll how you how to “make a fist” at the ball so that your contact point is further away from your body and more out in front. I noticed you sometimes had it in your pocket and other times it was just at your side, and it would have been nice to see a bit of an exaggerated counter balance arm raise, especially for people just learning the one handed back hand. Against a lefty that habit sends your shots to the lefty's forehand. I hit the Slice and a very good forehand. You make it very simple and easy to understand, thanks Ian, keep up the good work!

Many people demo the 1H BH with a linear movement of the racket, but your third tip about the buttcap is KEY. Other pros use it too. You are absolutely right, Peter! I've found that this helps me to time the strike better and so hit in the zone, out in front and with a relaxed follow thru. Thanks a lot! Many thanks for this, Clyde.

i find that in my own game sometimes especially on the serve I do not grab the racquet with my left hand after serving (im right handed) so I end up not having the ability to switch to the correct grip for the next stroke. Good demo, but you forgot to show the 'short hop' technique which should be taken a bit lower, no? Heck, Federer hits his forehand with more topspin with a strong eastern grip! What stands out most to me is that he doesn't have the typical ATP loop. Do I need to turn more sideways going into the stroke?

Basically, when a lefty plays a righty, the lefty is used to that matchup and the righty is not, so the lefty has the advantage.

Great video!!! thanks.

This demonstration is not good. Thanks a lot.

But I like the way you break it down to 3 things to think about.

Now I understand that they're both equally as good. , would continental also work ?. Great tips. His forehand is a less wristy, more muscly, more western, bent arm version of Federer.
Great Video Ian. Very helpful. Most pros would continue to let the racket drop and the loop it up under the ball. I'll actually be coming out with a grip video soon, Jesus. You say semi-western, everyone else is saying western. I find myself putting a lot (too much) side spin on my one-handed bh and I assume that is coming from hitting too close to my body and not extending out to the ball at contact. Very kind of you, Roger. Many thanks Ian. Only so many points I can make before people tell me that I'm "talking too much" . I'll actually be publishing a video that talks about grips very soon. Great questions, Graeme. It seems I have no choice but to swing while my body is still in motion. First of all, it's important to realize that hitting while on the run is NOT a bad thing in and of itself. One question, what grip should you use for the one handed backhand? What grip did you use in this video? Click Here! Sure, just search "federer slow motion backhand" on Youtube and any of the videos will show this. As a righty we are used to hitting our forehand down the line and backhand cross court to get to the other players backhand. I liked the way you simplified the techniques which will make it easier for me to focus on a limited amount of variables. Controlling the ball machine with a remote controller? Thanks. Thanks Sal. regards Gennady Utchitel Clear instructions and excellent video of Wawrinka to illustrate. Perhaps "cocked forward" is not the best expression, however. On some of the shots players bodies were arched away from the net- should you try to finish with your body arched towards the net? Informative, brief, and good presentation on your part. Please show the backhand grips! Want to hit your backhand on a dime like Stan? Keep those videos coming. Here one strikes the ball at about shoulder high with backspin. Many people aren't able to separate the two so when their feet are moving frantically their arm, hand and racquet does as well. I have a question about hitting on the run. The other I see Stan doing which is a foundation is his shoulder turn and non hitting hand holding the racquet until the point of initiating the forward swing.

Thanks Ian, I've been hitting 2 handed backhand, but I will start practicing one hand since I feel more confortable with… thanks for your advice. His arm is bent through the stroke and his grip looks like semi-western, or even a little farther, like Djoko, but he doesn't prepare the racket as high. Just awesome, Ian. (I think of making a fist at the ball, squaring up to the ball and going vertical for the topspin and finish as simultaneous. Ian – Good points for the 1H BH. I am also a left handed older player (59 yrs) and have used your videos to improve my game immensely. Very useful lesson. One thing that no one talks about in this stroke with regards to topspin, is the rotation at the shoulder that takes place during the stroke. I think this is because I don't move the raquet all the way round to the proper eastern BH grip and only going as far as continental. Thanks for the great lesson on one-handed backhand. Those are all great tips. Also, in the northern hemisphere playing in the afternoon, the sun is in a righty's eyes on the serve on one side of the court, but it is never in the lefty's eyes on the serve. I am going to try it out in the a.m. Love these videos really help with all aspects of my tennis. Taking it one step further than Federer it seems. However, almost every time you cut to the reverse camera position I freaked out because the really good angle for learning was the side shot. Stan's backhand would be nice to have, but so would yours. Taking the ball too close to the body and decelerating/stopping on follow-through are major causes of lateral epicondylitis (tennis elbow). Thanks, Bill. I am a 68 year old v. passionate basically doubles club player. Carol. When the ball waist level the net limits your ability to blast away. I use the one-handed backhand, but I'm not sure if I use enough of a backhand grip. When I am hitting my 1H BH well, it is l o o s e, with that racket rotated outward, palm close to facing upward, butt cap as you described.
Your fellow on-line pros are advising that on the one-hand backhand, the racket should finish with the racket parallel to the baseline and high above ones head. Thank you for your great, but not too wordy, lessons. You look like you're a great player btw! Ian, can you emphasize on contact point as to hit flat or hit top spin for the one handed backhand shot . All these many years of high level club and tournament tennis and various tune-up lessons, it was never pointed out about the positioning to get the right consistent contact point height-wise. the kick serve, Volleys, forehand and foremost the backhand, which was my biggest weak point ever since.
