And the final difference, Liam gives a grimace that puts the fear of God in his opponent, whereas Tom looks like he's just bringing round a home baked cake for a lovely afternoon tea 😂

This was your best video in a long time for me! The elbow out instantly helped me getting the ball over the net and/or deeper on the table. Changing nothing else - it's helping against the robot instantly. It's like I had forgotten to do this?! I'm still getting an arc more like an amateur but right away I am noticing more speed and consistency due to the fact I'm going forward more and that means less hitting the top of the paddle and such.

Appart from the usual great quality of content, I want to say Great video editing in this one Tom! Seriously must've taken a while, good job :)

Such a great series! The side by side slowed down comparison is very helpful.

Hey Tom, love your content, format, analysis, pretty much every thing. Always watch it multiple times, to ensure I don’t miss out on anything subtle. Now to your ask about spotting more, I would point out a couple of things. 1. Liam hits the ball on his paddle on the outside, not center. My guess it increases topspin with longer contact of ball & rubber. Typically I use that for forehand topspin, contact point is much lower/outside of the paddle. 2. Liam holds his breadth & then lets it out as finishing his stroke, kinda like the tennis players that grunt as finishing a shot. I think he is adding core strength using this technique. PS: Not visible, but Liam could be using a unique rubber on his paddle to help with return speed.

Liam's technique seems similar to a backhand flick. Getting low helps me, but I struggle to get that low all the time.

Great video. Liam’s use of the radar arm is interesting. He almost catches the ball.

Very good analysis, useful seeing them side by side

The speed is unreal

Great video, Tom! Looking forward for the next one.

Very instructive. Comparison videos are excellent for providing better context to learning.

Liam's paddle position is more close where yours is more open by comparison, therefore getting heavier spin. love the slow motion side by side comparison, thank you!

Great video as usual Tom

Good analyzing, good stuff

Okay, this tennis backhand tutorial is great and all, but I tried it and ended up hitting the ball into a different zip code! Time to call NASA, I'm serving for space exploration now! 🚀🎾 😄

Another deference is in using of the hand which is without blade, Liam bring it in front before shot and throw it back or side when he shot to help having more speed

excellent backhand topspin

Does the hair differential play a role? Great video.Thanks.

Liam the lion , amazing player

Helpful for me

Thanks!

And I thought my backhand topspin was pretty good till I saw Liam’s 😢

I like yours more than the other guy.

Liam is a lion , and poor Tom is still a cat😂 , will need a lot of practice to even grasp the power and consistency that Liam is doing but normal he is a pro player after all

I don´t think bodymovement means much. Rather it is the arm and wrist that do it all. Of course you need to have the body in the right place, but I see almost no movement of the hip or that kind of thing.

Yes, there are differences between technique . What you don't address and the biggest difference is that Liam has much more acceleration than you. Without the acceleration in his arm, wrist and body he wouldn't be able to overcome the backspin and go over the net. The main difference between amateur and pro is the acceleration in the strokes.

It is a half top spin, very, very fast and powerfull.

Такой если засадишь, никто не примет 👍🎾🎾🎾

Those are very normal chops push why didn't you should with heavy chops

first

Great video. Very creative teaching method! Thanks for the new approach to what has been a difficult shot to hit consistently.
