MrLjpadk11 I never knew hair could detract from a person’s skill, thanks for the insight I’m glad I didn’t make this fatal mistake.
This guy is a genius. Never seen a video so well explained, so technically detailed, so well illustrated with images. Bravo

Yea he said everything except how to actually hit the ball . So it’s useless
Sometimes the KZread algorithm is magic. Been trying to fix my forehand for a while and the only videos I've found are 16 minutes of badly miked lectures. This is high quality stuff. Thanks.
I've been a tennis teaching professional for over 3 decades, and this is, by far, one of the most (if not the most) complete, in-detail scientifically researched, objectively instructional, professionally edited video I've ever seen! Extremely well done, gentlemen! You've made me a devoted follower. Keep up the great job, and THANK YOU for going the extra mile into making such a fantastic video!

You are 100% the real deal. This concept is so hard to understand and much less explain. There is a wealth of tennis garbage on the internet but you are a tennis Guru. Thank you for taking the time to put this together for us mid-levels. Mastering this concept will take your game to the next level. Thanks again!!!
Dude, this video was one of the best ones I have ever watched about instructions here... Great job!

Thanks, Andre!
Content is killer. Can’t wait to play again today! Thanks for the tips man
Wow! You mentioned Rick Macci! I automatically knew that you know what you are talking about, what you are teaching, and what you are doing. Good Professors always use references to prior work, to Top Researches, etc. (Rick Macci is the Numbr One Top Tennis Researcher, Scientist and Teacher. ) And you did just that. You produced almost Scientific and Academic video lesson!
After 10 years of playing tennis. I finally unlocked the wrist lag power thank to this video! For me, it's the hip/chest rotation with relax of the hand (not just the wrist) as well as watching the ball and timing. It feels so effortless to hit the ball. To me, tennis is like, the more you loosen up the better.
I find myself sending your videos to my friends. The best channel on KZread.
I took so many lessons and didn’t get it until now. Thank you!!
One of the best sets of vids I have seen. Professional, technical and really useful. Thanks a lot. Paul.
This video is fantastic. I can tell so much that you guys have really put the work in mentally and physically.
I guess this is the best video on the topic in KZread!
Perhaps the best forehand video I've seen! Great Job!
For the first time ever I finally understand the relevance of the butt cap toward the net concept.
This is really helpful, I've never seen this amount of detail on the forehand!
best video i've seen yet. answers to many questions and makes it easy to practice the motion with logical natural movements versus forced movements that some other videos portrayed. well done
You giving them all of it. Very thorough and good delivery, visuals and effects. 👍🏾
This is probably the most complete and accurate wrist lag explanation video I've ever seen. On top of that it flows and was edited well, great job!
Thank you for this sublime video. It corrected a few things I had been doing wrong coupled with a heavier frame than I should have been using.
I've been looking for a video like this for two years now. I'm going to take these lessons and hammer them out over the next few weeks and see if my forehand improves, and I'll update this accordingly
Thank you so much for creating this video for us tennis players who want to have great success on the court and have fun! I’m a junior player and this really set me on the right path!😁🎾
wow this must be the best video for explaining this topic, well structured and it's only ten minutes long, congratulations!
Best video I 've ever saw about forehand!! I'll try to use these tips tomorrow!! Greetings from Brazil!!

Dude. This was a really quality video, honestly lol. Good stuff, keep it up!
I'm just starting out in tennis and I've got to say this is one of the best, tightest and most technically dense explanations of the use of the wrist lag in the forehand that I've seen. Thanks for the video.
What an excellent explanation! Well done!
Another great one from the racquetflex guys!!

Such a good video and explanation! Best I have seen yet! Congrats!!!
I love the quickfire info and the repeated views it makes your point very clear, great video. Keep it up
Loads of great tips in this video! Nice one.
always great to hear different takes on strokes!
this is my holy grail of forehand technique, great vid!
This is superb content ! I've been learning to get better at playing and my wrist with the forearm have been hurting badly. I've been forcing the shots with too much tension in the grip while swinging. This explains why. The fact that you also provide drills how to re-train yourself is outstanding!
Undoubtedly one of the best informative tennis videos I've ever watched, awesome!
Brilliant! This is something rarely understood of talked about.
One of the best forehand videos I’ve seen. Very clearly & simply explained with great demonstrations.
Dude ! Years of experience .. summarized in this video!! Bravo
Think too, this video is one of the best I have ever watched if it is about forehand technique. Simply and brilliant!
I love the clarity of your videos, brilliant.
This video is the best one on the modern forehand anywhere. Your analysis is clear, concise and the video is excellent too. Great job...thanks!!
Such a good video! Thanks for the tips!
A lot of amazing information in one video. Thank you so much!
Absolutely brilliant video man. I mean I don't even know what to say really. You laid out the information in a very informative and detailed way while keeping it easy to understand and practice, bravo.
Excellent use of video and pictures… great break down!
Racquet Flex - Great job ! I was working on developing some innovative double drills, and on KZread it popped your video. When I saw the title I clicked it ! For a long time I was teaching about the importance of the wrist , non dominant hand, position etc but this is the first video the explains so clearly the role of the wrist . Congratulations !
Best technical explanation of the modern forehand ever. Great job!

Wow this is premium stuff right there! Nice job and thx.
A to Z explanation and proper technique on the tennis forehand-Great job!
This is an amazing piece of information. I would love to have more.
Phenomenal video. The biomechanics explanations makes it all make sense.
The best of this video is that I can see the contact point from different angles. Thank you so much for your content
So glad I found this channel! Amazing breakdown
This video is by far the most helpful, detailed, and clear instructional video I have seen, and I have been working on this shot for several years! I changed my grip a while back, and this has cleared up several areas of confusion for me. Very, Very well done!! I don't know if you are doing any tennis instruction or coaching, but it seems to me you have a real gift for making the process clear! Great Work! I am a now a subscriber for sure!
Great content, plethora of useful information, much appreciated
Great all round coverage of the concept!
This is deep analysis I never had in youtube. Thank you.
Dude..!! This was intense..!! Thank you...will watch over & over & OVER,..till I get it..!!!
Very good video. Well thought out and presented.
GREAT video. The way you repeatedly rewind and replay the swing really drives the point home about how loose the wrist can be to get good wrist lag.
Damn. The most articulate analysis on this subject I’ve seen.. and it’s coming from someone who has a heck of a forehand. Quality stuff
This is the clearest advice I've ever heard on the forehand
Best video on the forehand lag. Great job, guys!
Probably the best explanation on how to use the forehand and why. Great job.
This is the best tutorial for the modern forehand I've come across. As an old competitive player from his high school and college days 20 years ago, I've had to breakdown my fundamentals to add the new modern mechanics. I've watched many videos and but I only fully understood how to remake my shot with your instruction. Thank you!!! 🙏🙏🙏
Excellent explanation and examples. Very, very helpful.
Wow. Just wow. What a video. Superb explanations. Thanks so much!
years later, i still come back to your content to freshen up. thank you
First video of yours that i saw, loved it! Looking forward to looking through your channel 💪
Best forehand vid on KZread. Great analysis!!
Liked and Subscribed!!! By far the best explanation & instructional video on tennis forehand. I'm so glad youtube algorithm worked because I just spent the last 3 days watching countless videos about forehands to no avail! Look forward to the others 👍👍
A ton of useful information, and yet succinct. Great stuff.
Excellent video man! Loved it! Brilliant. Keep up the good work
This is the best forehand video i have ever com across
AESTHETIC THUMBNAIL. Awesome vid! Gracias
This is the first video I watch on your channel. That's amazing! One of the best videos about the matter, really. Thanks a lot for this guys.
Holy crap. This is hands down the best tennis instruction video on youtube I've seen so far! Thanks for the great advice man!
I have watched many videos on hitting forehands like Federer. This is the first one I have seen that addresses grip pressure and relaxing the wrist. Well done. I am now subscribed.
I'm yet to find a better forehand video....great content and the delivery too was so on point too!
I have never seen such a well explained tennis class. Excellent, thank you very much.
Mission accomplished. This is precise and explanatory. Thank you.
This is so intuitive.
excellent video..I'm constantly told that i'm holding the racquet too tight or too loose despite never dropping my racquet . Your video makes it very clear about how the wrist should work with the racquet to get the best forehand and exercises to practice the techniques...I am looking forward to using all these instructions!
Fantastic video. Very well done
Yo this video is amazing because the way youre teaching the wrist motion in the forehand is not strict. Many videos are very strict with rules that “you must do” when really it depends on the ball you get. Great stuff!
Entertaining and informative, keep up the great work man!
I have gone back to tennis after 5 years of not holding a racket. I used to just hit my forehands flat and after wanting to learn the modern tennis forehand, I am glad I found this video. My friends are amazed at my new modern forehand and I can easily hit the ball with so much pace effortlessly. They thought I had a secret tennis coaching but I tell them to watch your videos. Thanks a lot! Much respect and gratitude from your student in SE Asia!
Nicely done man. Details thoroughly covered....love it. 👏👏👏
Amazing thanks, i just figured out that it was important for me to have my wrist in a little bit of extension for my swing so I didn't frame the ball and got a string face open longer, I needed this to ensure I wasn't crazy. Thanks so much!
Man, really nice and useful video. Love the content and the editing style. Thanks!
What Amazing coaching!!! Special and rare complete instruction
Sick video. Love the way you've approacher this. Loving the tunes on your videos too. Watched a bunch of videos trying to explain this. Absolutely top job.
Wow! I've heard so many people talk about this, and I've tried to incorporate it for the last few years. But you did an amazing job of breaking it down in this video. NIce work.
