We have a short out on the backhand clear (link below) but we can cover both in a longer video in the future. Thanks for the idea. th-cam.com/users/shortsojMxsKVrupE?si=ZVvjREI9pH5oLUjh

If your opponent consistently aims for the forehand tramline, can you stand with your racquet leg slightly ahead if you’re looking to take the return with a forehand defence, meaning you can open your body up to the cross court? Would you still stand with your racquet leg back when defending the backhand tramline? Or does it depend on where the opponent is smashing from on the opposition half?
Very good questions, in regards to the forehand defence. You could look maybe adjust your legs to look for the forehand, the issue with this the opposition net player could see this and give the information to the rear court player, they could I then start to adjust the placement of the smash. If you kept the same stance and racket position we spoke about in the video it’s not to say you can’t look for the forehand but you don’t want to show it. This will still keep an element of surprise to your opposition and still show that you can cover a variety of attack that comes at you. In relation to the other side we still believe that the racket leg should be set slightly back to allow more space on the inside hip, the smash down the tramline on the backhand side should feel an easier shot to cover, the other aspect to consider is the height of the lift, if the lift is flatter then hitting steep down on the inside hip becomes less likely, so you could then switch your legs as you would try and take on the flatter smash and counter. We appreciate that’s quite a wordy response but wanted to provide as much info as possible, if you have any further questions please let us know. We appreciate the interaction and hope you enjoyed the video 👍

Many thanks for taking time to reply with such depth. Really enjoy the videos as I’m always keen to see how I can improve and how I can help others improve. Guess it also depends on what level you’re at and what you can get away with. A video going into depth on feet positioning on both tramlines would be great if possible as I don’t think there’s any out there that I’ve seen. Again thanks for reply though as it answers my thoughts
Love the way by which you break the shots down to the technical aspects and how to prep - its not easy..
Respect

You’re welcome, we can look at another video covering feet position on both sides for sure at some point.
I must look at where the net player's position is, and only do when they're channel attacking. Ok no problem.
It certainly helps you pick the right shot. Let us know how it goes 👍
