Learning from Penholders
Training
Anthony Capasso Asked 11 years ago
Hi guys,
I enjoy watching YouTube videos to learn from the top players. I use a shake hand grip. I have started to like several pen hold players. Do you think I can learn a lot from them or should I stick to watching just shake hand players? Thanks.

Hi Anthony,
There are a lot of similarities between shakehand and penhold players. It is a good idea to watch all the top players because they will all have lot to show you.

Forehand and Backhand Topspin
The forehand and backhand topspin strokes are two of the most important strokes in table tennis. In lesson 6 you start playing these strokes first by getting someone to throw the ball to you. This makes it easier to get into the correct position and concentrate on the correct start and finish position, and the essential brushing contact. You can then progress to using this in a rally where your training partner learns to block the topspin back.
