http://www.fuzzyyellowballs.com. The Windshield Wiper Forehand is a variation of the classic tennis forehand, and it is the "go-to" stroke for many pros on tour today. The key to learning the Windshield Wiper is to alter the way you swing up at the tennis ball and then follow through – not just tack a winshield-wiper finish onto classic forehand mechanics. …

depends on the situation. it’s good to have more than one forehand in your arsenal so you can choose the most appropriate shot in any given situation.
is it better to just use a WW forehand in a game, or should you also include the classic forehand?
Hi blue. Extreme grips tend to make it easier to create topspin because of how they affect your swing plane — it’s more comfortable to have a relatively vertical (vs horizontal) swing path w/an extreme grip. Swinging up = more brush, which creates topspin. And as you say, an eastern makes it easier to hit flat cuz the swing path tends to be more horizontal. Keep in mind that theses are general guidelines — you can hit w/lots of topspin w/an eastern or hit very flat w/an extreme grip.
Is it true that a semi-western or western grip is better when you want brush on the ball to generate topspin and an eastern grip is better to hit more flatly. I felt that when you want to brush from low to high across the ball the semi western feels better than the eastern and it seems impossible with the continental grip. What do you think?
both… his forehand is tough to nail down.
does federer use windshield wiper or classic?
Hey i was wondering which grip is best to use with the windsheild wiper forehand. Semi-western, western, eastern? What do you suggest?
Ryan, perfect technique alone is NEVER going to guarantee you a spot on an ATP tour. Learning great technique will only get you to the intermediate level at best. Pros like Federer know the importance factors like strategic ball placement, the precise amount of pace and athleticism needed to counter a certain shot, having great court dominance over the opponent are a few examples. There is much more depth in tennis than merely knowing the right way to swing around a racquet.
There’s really no advantage in a two handed forehand, because the forehand is much more effective in the controlling the ball more so than the backhand, players use their other hand in a two handed forehand in order to perform a “forehand” with the other hand, your primary hand is there to add stability, not to produce more power like many assume.
I’m wondering if theres gona ever be nething on two handed forehands?
Hi queen. I’m not 100% sure what you mean? Perhaps you’re hitting some balls in the center of the strings and others closer to the frame. That will definitely make contact feel different.
Great tip!! i’m sure i make this mistake,some balls seem alive when i hit them and others feel dead(if you know what i mean)thanks.
well it’s important to understand how your swing path affects how the ball travels — that allows you to modify your swing depending on the situation and create variety in your game.
ah.. I see why that piccard guy was getting antsy in the last video now. I see the difference in swing patterns now.. I just don’t see why someone has to point it out. *shrug*
thanks for the video
His follow through is a little bit different. He starts to bring the racket across his body, left to right, but then the racket releases over his head. So I can see how it looks kinda the same but the mechanics of Nadal’s reverse finish are a little bit different from what I’m demoing.
I think Nadal does that when he needs to whip his racquet over his head; for whatever reason he pleases. I think as you develop a mastery of the game, you tend to create your own playing style that suits you best.
great great video. thanks
i mean like ill give u the vid personally? or how?
if you’ve got a video on youtube i can take a look
hey erm ive been playing tennis since i was 5 and in the sch team and now in high sch doing well in tennis…i like got injured at my shoulder for 5 months. now when i play i totally forget the basics:( could i take a vid and show u if my forehand is the rite one and if its windscreen stuff and all? ists hard coz ur a lefty
kinda funny, that awkward follow through you show at 3:25 looks an awful lot like Nadal’s forehand
i’m curious to explore this area because i might be messing up my forehand the way u explained in the beginning doing a normal forehand but is finishing with a ww style, because i feel my 2-handed backhand penatrates the court more then my forehand
yeah but when they do it the racquet head finishes down by their ankle
no there isn’t really a risk of injury if you do it correctly. pretty much all the pros use this shot as their standard forehand.
Also, isn’t this shot not such a great idea because of the risk of injuring your arm on the follow through
