Penhold block

Strokes

Tim Sodelund Asked 13 years ago

Hi Alois! I have a simple question: Can i use the block on the forehand side as on the backhand?

Alois Rosario Answered 13 years ago

Hi Tim,

You can use a forehand block. It is used when yo don't have time to make an attacking stroke and are looking for more placement to win the point.

Take a look at our lesson on the Forehand Block. It will help you with your technique.
