wrist goes into extension AND ulnar deviation at start of fwd swing ...this is key for effective topspin

Note right leg moving behind left ... this shot is being hit down the line

Having good success with new fh swing …ie strings face down and swoop up to vertical at impact … also try to keep right foot back (thru impact) to stay on the ball longer ..drag right foot post impact before coming around

Stop the rotation of torso at impact and fling arm fwd ... do NOT continuously rotate torso in tandem with the arm swing post-impact
