Penhold

Strokes

I've noticed you use the shakehand in your videos.  I'm somewhat new to the game and find the penhold grip a bit more comfortable.  Are most of the videos as shown equally relevant for penholders, or are the styles for both hands too different?

Hi Tom,

We have a video that will help you to understand the relationship between the two grips.  Take a look at Penhold Techniques for Table Tennis.  Let me know if this helps.

Strawberry Flick

The strawberry flick is the opposite of the banana flick and involves utilising the wrist to get the ball spinning with topspin and sidespin. Used in conjunction with the banana flick it can be very deceptive. The banana flick is a more reliable stroke and that's why you see more top players using it over the strawberry flick.
