hi Sir alois, why wang hao didn't use the traditional backhand he always use the reverse backhand... I like the wang hao style.. :)
Hi Alex,
You can generate more speed and spin with the RPB than with the traditional penhold backhand. That is why, when they get the opportunity they will use the RPB in a lot of cases.
When playing penhold players it is important to remember to first analyse your opponent as you would if they used any grip. What are their strengths and weaknesses? A common weakness of penhold players is their forehand block especially against a slow spinny topspin. Their backhand may be a weakness if they use the traditional style, or you may wish to explore the crossover point if they are using the reverse penhold backhand.
