Think of the swing as a inclined wheel that spins on an 8 - 2 o'clock axis

do not stay vertical thru swing ...tilt the torso so there is an inclined axis to the swing ...and let the diagonal swing plane impart topspin

For even more enhanced topspin, stop the arm at full extension and let CF pull the racket head across the body ...do not use the wrist ...let the racket whip across via CF .....NOT via muscularity of the wrist or bicep ...wrist should be relaxed

Note lean-back posture in the BS...maintain this thru out swing (lateral side bend) for enhanced topspin
