Would you guys consider making a video that's just you two playing a practice match with a nice court level camera? Would love to just watch you guys hit for an extended period of time.
💯💯
Is that a yes? 🙂
I wanna see you guys go at it too 😁
Would want to see this!
Try this one. th-cam.com/video/Pa-c4rlHuUo/w-d-xo.html
Nobody explain how to strike a tennis ball like you guys, you are by far the best and on top of that you talk the talk and walk the walk. Love you guys!
Thanks so much Raudel!
I spent weeks on the wall honing in on this technique. I then took it to the court by myself, dropping a ball and focusing on the technique. I ingrained the muscle and mental memory for it, then applied it in my first game with friends. I made some beautiful powerful returns and the power, spin and arch of the ball travel was impressive. At one point I got super aggressive and thought the ball was going to the fence for sure, but it took that beautiful dive to the ground and stood in play. Very satisfied with the results. Thanks for the breakdown and great method of instruction you deliver.
Excellent breakdown of the modern forehand. You're a great teacher.
Some of the best information on swing fundamentals, as usual.
Super well explained - scientific and yet simple!
Awesome lesson. Thanks a lot for sharing! I'm going to practice it tomorrow in my recreational weekly game with a friend.
Amazing video, thanks very much. Can't wait to try tomorow!
Such fresh technical information, thank you, loving your lessons!
Amazing explanation of a highly complex movement that I have struggled with for years !
Another great video guys. Your approach with the science behind it really helps me “get it.”
Tried the drills a few hours ago and already improving. Thanks.
This is by far the best forehand tips I have got so far on TH-cam! Great job!
You make it sound so easy by breaking it into doable steps...can't wait to try it out...Awesome video!
Best video so far on youtube. Like your breakdown on the misconception of Low to High which causes a lot of problem / makes it difficult to change when it becomes a muscle memory.
I love you explanations. I shared your videos with Essential Tennis and they were impressed too.
Brilliant explanation. Thanks.
This lesson (more than a simple video) has all that been lacking in my tennis. Thanks from Brazil, u guys are really great.
The way you explain things makes so much sense, excellent instructing/teaching methodology and skills.
Love the detailed explanation!
The loose racket at tip you give is amazing. Totally freed my forehand up. Thanks guys!
Amazing video as always !!!!!
Best tennis instruction videos on YT by far. Keep it up!
Very tactful and passionate teacher. You really understand the common problem of junior and club players. We need people like you. Your video really helps. Thank you
absolutely thee best breakdown I have Ever seen. Wow.
Excellent , well explained info. I’ve taken a lot from your instructions
Just too good! Tomorrow I'm gonna implement it on the ground. Then see your video all over again. By then hopefully, I'll have incorporated it in my drills. Thanks a ton.
Very good, I learned many things for perfect foreand.
YOur best lesson to date for my. thank you.
You guys produce fantastic instructional video. Keep up the great work and hope you guys are having fun playing and teaching tennis!
Very likely the best video I have seen on how to generate topspin while destroying the myths surrounding the racquet lag and wind-shield wiper. Just awesome content!
great video! will try on court tomorrow:)
Great video thanks for what yall do!
Guys, thank you for you positive energy, smiles, and, most important, for the great training content! It is logical and clear and it makes complex tennis motions absolutely understandable.
By following your advices and drills I was able to improve my game significantly and even teach my friend from zero to a reasonably good forehand.
Many thanks. Will recommend you to everyone I know 😁
Awesome stuff! You're an amazing teacher! We're lucky to have you. If I lived anywhere near you I'd be paying with pleasure to have you as my coach/teacher.
Same here, same here.
Great instruction... thanks!
This channel is great, I love it. Thanks for the awesome videos!
provide easy-to-understand information And it's the most natural body language. I love it.
Nice clear explanation.
Perfect. Thank you!
Great! Thank you!
Well just signed up!! Got an opportunity to see the brothers in person. The videos are great, but in person is another level!!! Starting a new journey now and looking forward to another level of play.
Beautiful explanation and demonstration. Well done!
Teacher thank you very much for the great video.
I have a lot of difficulties of modifying my forehand!
I live in Brazil and my city has few teachers.
Therefore, I have used your videos to instruct me.
You are, by far, my faorite tennis channel. Not only your tennis level is excellent, but - this is very, very rare imo - you are able to explain how you do it, your path to your final technique, etc.
Thank you =)
Great video. I watched this and took it to training yesterday - having just received a new racquet. What a revelation, Snap speed, tons of top spin and consistency. As ever one of the best tennis instructors on TH-cam
Fantastic!!! Thank you!
Really love the video quality and content that was produce each time ! :D Do you have any videos on how to hit a FLAT single handed backhand to destroy opponent?
I have struggle with my forehand all my life, it is simply a wild card. I have a one handed backhand of a 5.0 and a forehand of a 2.5. I have been watching TH-cam videos trying to find a fix and I think your videos are the very best I've found. The season is over now in Michigan but I will be using your videos to try fix my forehand next season. I just bought a ball machine and will use it to practice and record myself until I achieve a forehand similar to yours.
Next gen forehand video would be amazing
Great video guys!
Hey guys! Thanks for watching - I'm glad you liked it!
Great video 🎉🎉🎉 again
hi, can you also talk about the movement of bicep curl in the forehand? I feel this movement is very useful when hitting sharp angles to move the ball drop short. I never found any video talking about this movement. is it a legitimate technique for forehand?
You two have the best tennis videos on the web. Plus the obvious joy you get from smashing balls is infectious
Hi, love your video's and how it incorporates science and theory into the movement. would love to see more video's on 2hbh and shot timing
Thanks for the video suggestion Flixt!
Hello coach , I tried your training method on myself and it works well my forehand has improved a lot .thank you very much for your training tips. I have a good level of tennis now thank to you
Really good. Thanks
Exelente explicacion !!!!!
U guys just are the best tennis channel ever on yt
Use full video thanks sir
Step 1 the backswing: such a good explanation from you ! Strings at 3 o’clock and the rest of the swing fell into place with a loose grip. THANKS . It puts the wrist in supination and then pronation automatically
great content!! could you consider making a video specifically about the looseness of the wrist on the FH?
Awesome video, again! Thank you! My pet peeve is the coach who keeps telling us everything we know is a myth and that tennis is intuitive. Nothing in tennis is intuitive. It’s learned behaviour built up by incremental steps. If tennis were intuitive we wouldn’t need any coaches like you to show us how it’s done. A kick is just a kick and a punch is just a punch AFTER you’ve mastered them! 😭
Thank you .
Very nice share thanks
I recently discovered these motions by accident after many years of trial and error. Thanks for putting this together to help countless current and future players elevate their game. On to the next skill gap. :D
Great explanation. As a physician you really understand the biomechanics well👌👍
Al lot of thanks.
U explain really well 👍👍👍
DEAR SIR, THANK YOU SO MUCH FROM THE CORE OF MY HEART👍👍👍👍
Simply the best 🎾
Best tennis channel by far
More on Next Gen please. Great insights. Keep it up!
awesome!!!!
Amazing Vídeo!!!! Saudações brasileiras!! 🇧🇷
What a great drill~~~!!!!👍👍
A more detailed video on the next gen forehand would be awesome guys!
You guys are awesome
Another great video!
Let me remind you that you have promised a long time ago to make a video which explains how does Federer switch his grip from continental to eastern while preparing for the forehand.😀
Yo I want to see this as well!!
He just pivots the racket with his non-hitting hand (left hand), as he begins to bring the racket back. He postpones squeezing the racket grip with his right (hitting) hand, (and thereby also waits to separate his hands from the racket) until he has the grip pivoted the exact amount he wishes (which turns out to be an eastern grip). It’s the exact same story with his switch to his backhand grip (which is basically an eastern backhand grip, but for a slight diagonal shift, slightly separating his index finger from the other fingers. Were he to stand holding the racket in a strict Eastern backhand grip, with his hitting hand’s base knuckles all on bevel 3, blocked together, as if he’s holding a lantern with his arm fully extended, directly out in front of him, the racket face would be at an exactly 90° angle sticking out to the left. But with his modified eastern grip, it adjusts the angle that his right arm and the racket make another 30 to 40 degrees AWAY from his body. It makes an obtuse angle.
This allows for better whip into the ball, which means more power and more spin. But you didn’t ask about his backhand, I’m just remembering, so I have no idea why I’m still talking about this.
So, anyway, just know that he’s not keeping his left hand on the racket when he brings it back cuz he thinks it looks good, that hand is entirely in charge of getting the racket to the proper grip position! Who’da thunk it??
@@microphoner1 Thanks for elaborating on that. One can also notice how he opens his fingers to make more space between his index and the rest of the fingers.
Thanks. 👍👍👍
Great video playa 🍿
Thanks
Amazing video. The mistakes pointed out here are true and seems like these are exactly the faults I’m doing
Excellent 🎾
Thank you!!
u guys are awesome
I am glad you didn't recommend Nadal like forehand which I see a lot of players are copying. I think that forehand is something that can be used if you are scrambling but not as an offensive shot.
i would definitely like a video on next gen forehands
Would you make a tutorial on how to slide on court specifically,forward and sidewards (hard court)
nice video
That was very well done, clear, and demystified some of the BS surrounding topspin and forehands.
The new logo and title card is looking 🔥🔥🔥
What are you thoughts about the next gen forehand vs the modern forehand?
The swing path you are illustrating appears to be the "outside in" approach. For the sake of argument, how does this approach compare to the "inside in" swing path to generate massive topspin and pace?
Great instruction .Just watching you know this is the exactly correct pathway towards a heavy quality forhand , sort of slapping the ball ( pulling across body) yet at contact rapidly rolling the strings over the top of the ball for top spin. Unfortunately it won’t be easy to break the habit of trying to brush up low to high.
What grip did you use? Will it work with a western grip?
I have a question: is it correct to say that the forehand swing is in fact a semicircular movement where the initial part up to contact with the ball is linear and immediately before the windshield wiper movement begins?
You have world class strokes. Have you played professionally? I love how you explain things. I particularly like your last tip, using the topspin pro, the proper windshield wiper motion, and your so good explanation of the inherent advantage of the straight arm forehand.
Great to show it for lefties too
Mantap.......good.👍👍
Thanks for the video. I have been trying to change from the “low to high” to the modern forehand. However my wrist seems to be hurting a little so not sure if I am doing it wrong.
If it hurts you’re doing it wrong. Stop. The wrist is fragile. Need an on-site coach to help you. The wrist must not be completely relaxed or you risk hyperextension. Do not actively ulnar nor radially deviate. A minimal amount of passive is ok but must be careful.
@@Johnstage thanks for your reply. It’s an art to get it right and I guess everyone’s body is different
@@mybluesky123 if you watch the slow motion, Federer and Nadal wrist are not actively moving prior and during contact.
What string tension do you guys use on the Blade?
I use around 50-52 while Daytri uses 48 on his pro staff 👍
