Two Handed Forehand-the Future of Tennis !!!

[ByeByePoly]

For a healthy adult male to go from 1hfh to 2hfh is like trading your Porsche for a Toyota.

Worse ... it's like a sex change

 

[Curious]

All great inventions seem to come from Poland! Inertial tennis and now this one!!

 

[ByeByePoly]

@Gregory Diamond ... since your hand is good enough to hit some FHs, you should go to left hand bottom, right hand top. Your arms and hands will work together more naturally that way. I assume you have already built up left side from hitting 2hfhs. If not, maybe some left 1hbh drills.

It’s the new wheel-free carriage, it goes 0-60 as fast as OP can beat a dead horse.

It is impressive he learned to hit it. Have you tried? I did last week, and it is pretty hard. My left arm/hand was running interference.

I often demo it to beginners, especially kids, who can’t control the racquet face (offhand on top), with the intention of later removing the offhand.
my kids started like this, but now hit a 1hfh,... when they actually play (which is not often )

I could probably play with it, but would probably tend toward a more precision game,... and would definitely have to stand in close to take everything on the rise, to counter my shorter reach.

I tried it but two handed forehand with crossed hands is much better.

So why not do a cross handed two handed forehand on the other side as well?

Reminds me of the old joke:

How many disabled Polish hands does it take to change a forehand?

 

[Gregory Diamond]

Because left hand is weaker than right hand and you would have to switch the hands. If your left hand was equally strong it would be a real possibility.

I didnt get an answer on which ITF you won and what is your name?... So I can check it

If your left hand is not equally strong, then it sounds like your hand is disabled

I have two disabled hands. It is the reason why I have won so many tournaments.

It's not that hard to figure out.

If Nadal can win matches using his not too good forehand then with two handed forehand he would be unstoppable.

Umm, ... you're out of your mind ...

And please, stop projecting your 'epiphany' onto the rest of the tennis universe

Could you show me players who play forehand like Nadal and are high on ATP ? His forehand is primitive but he is so strong that it doesnt mater. His backhand is even worse.

Apparently, my initial assessment was correct.

You should try again. You probably learned while hurt and were protecting right hand.

I would have to train the left side pull ... my guess is it would take a long time. I could pretty much hit it in the court consisently my first try ... but very weak because left arm prevented right arm fh. I think it would be the perfect time for Jolly's medicine ball. But NO!!! I already have a 2hbh to work on.

The great thing about the 2hfh is that it forces me To use your core to swing (vs just the arm). And like the 2hbh, you can disguise change of direction because one hand can focus on supplying pace, while the other hand can focus on late/early racquet contact and spin (ie windshield), and really forces you to focus on footwork, because your footwork has to be be precise (no reaching, off balance, off the backfoot 1hfh).

While not new, I do bet the OP has good footwork, and if he is winning is likely more attributed to his footwork than his “revolutionary” 2hfh.

Well paint me green and call me a paraplegic. You’ve just gone from “all of YOU have a disabled hand it’s BAD” to “I have TWO disabled hands and it’s GREAT”

My footwork is excellent but it wouldnt be enough to win so many tournaments. It is really difficult to make an error playng two handed forehand if the ball is within the reach so I can plan very complicated actions on court. I try to use the strength of my opponent to generate angles. I am the wall for his balls. He is the engine and I am the driver.

I have two disabled hands but it is not my choice. If two handed forehand works for me it would work for healthy person for sure.

Bold proclamation since he doesn't believe in the split step.

Yea, it is. He is from Poland, over 55, and you can guess his first name.

We established before that split step is an unnecessary effort.

Does it disable the feet?

What do you mean "we" white man?

[Gregory Diamond]

In some sense -yes. It deprives the brain of oxygen and your feet are disabled on the highest level. We all know what split step is for but we should consider whether the cost is not too high. I dont do it but I am almost always where the ball is.

How does it deprive your brain of oxygen? Your brain always gets a study supply of blood flow, as does your heart. Even during the widespread vasoconstriction that is associated with exercise and sympathetic arousal.

Even more so, split stepping activates the leg muscles and increases the rate of venous return, so if anything you'd be increasing circulation and improving blood flow

The same you can say about running but you know that at some point you cant run any more. I like to play with players who use split steps. It is almost a guarantee of winning. What is good for professionals very often is a great error for other players. Nadal is the best example. People who try to copy his way of playing cant achieve anything.

That's called muscle fatigue, not cerebral hypoxia. You say things with conviction but then when someone points out that you're wrong you double-back

During last ITF tournament one of my opponents decided to play two handed forehand in the future. Next Saturday -beginning of National Championships. I want to win because I dont like to lose.

Two handed forehand is a great chance for all disabled people( I mean all people who use only one hand though they have two).

I am making progress in that matter. This needs more conceptual work. Probably the only solution will be to change tennis rules and remove serve from tennis. You cant force children to be disabled.

I practiced two handed volley today. It worked really well. I have been stupid for years. I tried to play one handed volley knowing that my right wrist was injured and knowing that I had two hands. It was not the best time of my life.
