Hi guys
several years ago I saw a match and the chinese guy won. then I decided to play with the penhold grip. I learned it by my self with no trainer and I can almost do all the shots and now in the college championship I got beaten in the semi.
I want to improve my play but there is a problem. table tennis grib is only shakehand in my country. no bode knows how to play penhold and I don't find any body to train me. I asked a lot and went to several trainers but no body helped
so do you think I should change my grib and start over with the shakehand ?

Hi Ahmad,
Stay with your grip. Theree are not too many differences with the penhold grip i nthe basics.
Take a look at the lesson on the Pnhold Grip that we have. Here is the link.

I saw the video a while ago
but I have a problem with the reverse backhand topspin
I'm tall so I can't start from below the table height
I will try to practise it and try to get down with my legs a little
wish to see more penhold videos from pingskills
thanks for your help
