Being able to flip or roll short balls is a necessary skill that is difficult for some players to learn. Often, the problem lies in trying too hard to hit a winner or a really hard shot, using too big of a stroke and not enough footwork.

Focus entirely on position, i.e. placing the ball deep to a corner or at your opponent's body, and not at all on speed. This should be a controlled, low shot, not an attempted winner. Third -- and very important -- move back out quickly to a ready position to attack your opponent's return of your flip.- j9 J5 E0 A% [% B9 t0 i

Move, flip, move again. Keep it controlled, emphasize the footwork, and your flip should earn you many helpful points.

相反,试一下这个三步法。首先:上步靠近球,身体下沉,放低。第二,一旦上步后,把球轻轻挑过去或卷过去。动作要小。重点是回球的位置,例如将球深深地回到一个大角或回向对方的身体,千万别追求速度。这应该是个有控制的低的击球,而不是试图打出一个制胜球。第三步,也是非常重要的一步,快速回位准备进攻你对手对你挑球的回球。

移动,挑球,再移动。控制住球,强调步法,你的挑球就会为你赢得许多有益的得分。 |
