Comment:
After second BH topspin opening ③ (first time against backspin ②, second time against block ④), switch to counter-hit strokes ⑤.
Training partner task is to change randomly his strokes from BH to FH or from FH to BH counter-hit (strokes 4 and 6). Strokes 3 and 5 must follows partner returns in the way that: BH follows BH and FH follow FH. Next series will be other way around: FH follow BH and BH follows FH.
Change pattern every series.
