Strokes
hi
At the moment i play chinese penhold. I have seen videos on the japanese pengrip.it looks very similar to me. is this true? And also , i am mainly a defensive player that plays alot of spin shots and serves and attacks on my forehand with a lot of topspin when i can. which grip and blade would be more suited to my play?
thanks
Hi Harry,
Both grips are legitimate and can be used for th etype of play you are talking about. You need to put both of them in your hand and see which feels more comfortable. This is the main difference.
Once you've mastered the start and finish position of the forehand topspin, you can start to focus on finer details. In this video we talk about the position of your legs, weight transfer, varying the finish position, incorporating footwork, the use of your wrist, and the angle of your bat for the stroke.
