Balle [qui imprime] un mouvement de rotation sur elle-même. La rotation peut se faire vers l'avant [...] c'est la balle brossée ou liftée. La rotation peut se faire vers l'arrière [...] c'est la balle coupée. Enfin, il existe aussi un effet de rotation latérale (de gauche à droite ou vice versa) - pensez au mouvement de la toupie qui tourne; c'est la balle coupée mais animée d'une rotation latérale, utilisée lors du service [...] il y a tout de même une limite à vouloir donner de l'effet à ses balles. Vous risquez de vous retrouver avec des balles animées d'une grande vitesse de rotation mais un peu courtes [...] Pour comprendre ce qui se passe, comparons la balle à effet rotatif à la balle frappée à plat [...] 2, record 2, French, - balle%20%C3%A0%20effet
