You're a terrific teacher. Your advice, your spoken delivery, your demos--perfect. I'm lucky to have the best tennis instructor in my city, and this tip --and all the tips on your channel-- are precisely what he teaches. I replay your videos to cement what I learn in my lessons.

Let me know how it went

[@user-en9tf9lz3g]

Great video. What are your thoughts on the rolling ball retriever that was shown in the video. Is it better than the tube retrievers?

[@MeikeBabelTennis]

Yes, soooo much faster and kind of fun.

[@user-en9tf9lz3g]

@@MeikeBabelTennis You mind sharing where you got it and the name is the brand? Thanks!

[@stephenericwalsh]

Any thoughts on the amount of turn you can comfortably do if you are left eye dominant but right handed?

[@MeikeBabelTennis]

To the extend that you can clearly see the ball turn as much as you can

[@stephenericwalsh]

@@MeikeBabelTennis Thank you!

[@circuitdesign]

The two-handed backhand being like a left-handed forehand seems to be controversial, where other coaches will say it is NOT like a left-handed forehand because the mechanics are different. Can you comment and elaborate on this? Great lesson, by the way! 👍

[@MeikeBabelTennis]

It’s not the same exactly. But you do want the extension of your off arm and the “left-handed” forehand drill is a great way to feel that extension. In that it is the same as a true forehand where you also want as much extension as possible. Think Alcaraz forehand.

[@circuitdesign]

@@MeikeBabelTennis Thanks for the answer. That makes complete sense. Tennis players are always striving to get good extension off both sides. (And if they aren't, they should be.)

[@KAmusic715]

I was going to ask the same question. After spending a year trying to think about which arm should lead the backhand, I’ve chosen to focus away from that and your 3 cues-including the extension one-don’t require picking one arm over the other. Your lessons are the best Meike, always simple and fundamentally sound!
