Nice video - I wonder if you could create videos showing the steps / drills to work on from a swing rebuild perspective? Less so for back hand / forehand for me, but where I have injured my left knee, I can no longer land my server on my front foot, you would think it is easy to just land on both feet, but I also don't have the same explosive strength in my legs, and it has thrown everything off in my service action. To have steps to build a serve from scratch would be amazing, as it would for other strokes, specifically for less advanced players.
Hey Simon just as an FYI: coach Rick Macci is teaching exactly the same style BH for the exact same reasons. (First hand experience btw) Keeping the racquet head up, just above the wrist will allow the racquet head to “flip” naturally and get under the ball as the forward swing begins. Solid content as always!!! Thank you!
This was really good information. I like how the weight is transferred from back to front. I would like to see how to improve my reflexes at the net, as well as technique.
That’s why I said can I enter as two competitors. I’d play a few guys righty, and the rest lefty. Karue can play, Felix can play, the Swedish Simon can play, Intuitive can serve big and use to play college tennis do knows how to win but is older now, apart from that, most online guys are looking like snacks for my left hand
@@TopTennisTrainingOfficialThere's also the Gladiator tennis guy and I think also the Racquet Flex dudes. So if you count them, we can throw your man Alex, there's at least 5 guys (I would not consider Nick from Intuitive tennis for the reason you mentioned) and it already would be really fun!
I’ve tried 1million different ideas to help my 2HBH and the MOST important thing is to pivot around the right foot. Let your left leg come off the ground if you have to but be sure to pivot! (If you’re a righty)
The Aero is more powerful for sure, and gives you that easy power generation. But, it gave me horrible issues with my arm, elbow and wrists. I’ve heard from numerous people it isn’t a forgiving frame and has caused lots of arm issues with players. The EZone is much more arm friendly, good control and enough power. It’s much more of a control racket, and good for precision
bend or streched right arm in double handed bachand in tennis for me is more comfortable to be bend.But my couch tells me that it must be streched.I need an advice
Hi, so i am what you'd call a counter puncher, especially on my backhand. I like it when the ball 'comes' to me, i would just hit it with open stance or just deflect it back. But then trouble comes when my opponent gives me slice or short (not really an approach) ball. Those two situations made me understand that what i struggle with is the ball with no pace, an empty ball. So, any tips? Thx
Hey Simon, been researching this.all over the net but can’t seem to figure out the concep. But can you go in depth which arm dominates the swing how to train it. My swing still feels unnatural sometimes it’s my non dominant some days it’s my dominant arm
Among other things - great FH, great BH and excellent speed. Dont get me wrong, you're doing great videos and got big knowledge but Chang was some kind exception to the rule@@TopTennisTrainingOfficial
Chang was an exceptional athlete. His speed helped him excel. Without his athletic ability, his technique would never have won him a slam. Technically speaking, he could have been 2/3 levels higher. Djokovic backhand, Agassi backhand, Safin backhand, Nalbandian backhand, those are backhands you want to emulate.
I think your turn your left leg too fast ( watch Jdjokovic, he only turns he left left for replacement), then weight transfer from left to right is not complete

Thanks for watching and sharing that 👍
I love these videos from Simon. Best in the business! Thanks for the help!!
Best backhand vid I've seen, helped me massively, thank you!

Thank you for the lesson! The technique is explained in great detail and very clear. The rest is a practice for me lol
Thanks Simon!
Thanks for watching 👍
I wonder if UA-cam would have a Tennis UA-cam competition where we have singles matches with the many UA-cam tennis content creators.
Sign me up 🤣
Can I enter twice, once with my right hand and once with the left?
He was thinking in the 1st place about Ian from ET & Ryan from 2mntennis.
And forgot about Karue.. 😅😅

That guy Simon Freund would be hard to beat....

Enjoyed this, very helpful
Excellent explanation, thank you !
My pleasure 🙏
Racquet head avoe the grip, right shoulder points to the next, heel to toe weight transfer - lean into the ball.
👍
great video thank you ! what is the slinger bag setting at 3:00?
Speed is 2 dials up from the lowest (8 o’clock) and trajectory is 20%
@@TopTennisTrainingOfficial thank you so much

100%
So many will disagree, but once you’ve got the basics down, uncoiling around the front foot is a game changer
Simón, how do you compare the Aero 98 vs the Ezone 98?
The Aero is more powerful for sure, and gives you that easy power generation.
But, it gave me horrible issues with my arm, elbow and wrists.

the subtitle is very useful. love it
Many thanks 🙏

Whichever feels better typically works better for that person

Get up quickly on those balls to hit it before it drops too low and focus on speeding up the racket head. Rapid acceleration

60/40 for the top hand in general
@@TopTennisTrainingOfficial can you make a short video about it. I think it will help a lot of people.
that place looks beautiful where are those courts?
Antalya, Türkiye 🇹🇷
Are you still doing ITF tournaments?
I’m really thinking about switching to a two hand backhand do you really think there is a big time advantage over a one hand?
Yes 2HBH is quite complicated
For most players, they’ll master the two-hander long before they would master the one hander
Opposite of some of the nonsense coming out of academies in fla. Breath of fresh air really!
Thanks for the support 🙏
At the contact point, the power comes from right or left hand?
Neither, the power comes from the big muscle groups. Rotation, leg drive, weight transfer. The arms are the final segment
Very nice videos, but that audio is very bad, hard to keep the video playing..
Sorry about that, I filmed this video on my phone without my mic.
And it was very windy that day
Why is it that even though I have the right racquet head and the right unit and good power. I’m still not getting it over the net?
Michael Chang was hitting BH this technique you say it's wrong in order to generate power
Is Chang famous for having a great backhand?
Among other things - great FH, great BH and excellent speed. Dont get me wrong, you're doing great videos and got big knowledge but Chang was some kind exception to the rule@@TopTennisTrainingOfficial

Djokovic backhand, Agassi backhand, Safin backhand, Nalbandian backhand, those are backhands you want to emulate.
I agree, but don't understand one thing - how can you remeber Michael Chang? He's over 50 now and you look like around 30:)@@TopTennisTrainingOfficial
idk why in my two handed backhand there is way too much spin, please help, thanks in advance.
I think your turn your left leg too fast ( watch Jdjokovic, he only turns he left left for replacement), then weight transfer from left to right is not complete
Can you hit a backhand better than me?
Not for beginner.
That’s right, it’s not. Plenty of other lessons on our channel for players just starting their backhand journey.
