Holding bat Loose and Tight
Strokes
DHS Lover Asked 11 years ago
Hi PingSkills
I want to ask about power of holding the bat
some player hold it tightly and some player hold it loosely
is there any effect when we hold the bat with any power? as my coach never lift a heavy backspin ball with vertical movement but he tight his gip and just topspin it horizontal and the ball still can go up
so it seems like there's the different effect with different power when holding the bat
please for the answer :D thank you

Hi Frendy,
I like to keep the grip relaxed. This allows you to do more with your wrist during the stroke.

Although this is a very simple lesson, the idea applies to every level of player. Developing control and keeping the ball on the table is the most important skill in Table Tennis.

is there any effect with tight and relaxe grip for the stroke ? maybe the power or what ?
I think you can generate more power with a relaxed grip because you can use all of the muscles in your body effectively.
