I want to find out how to do a pendulum and a reverse pendulum serve in pengrip. I tried searching on YouTube but it is always in shake hand.

Cheers!

Hi Yunge,

You can watch the tutorials on YouTube for Shakehand players.  The only difference is that you don’t have to change your grip at all to make the serve.  You can just use your normal Penhold grip and then apply the same principles as we show you.
