Backhand for J-Pen
Strokes
Moises Moises Asked 6 years ago
What is the best way to attack from the backhand using a Japanese penhold grip paddle?
Alois Rosario Answered 6 years ago
Hi Moises,
The Backhand with the J-Pen is a very big stroke that is taken from outside the line of your body to give yourself some space to make the shot.
Start outside your left hip and finish up at head height similar to the finish of the shake hand backhand topspin stroke. In our tutorial on PingSkills Penhold Techniques there is a section on Japanese Backhand Technique where you will get some more hints.

Stop Coming Back to Ready Position! Do This Instead…
Most players are told to always return to the ready position after every stroke but that might be hurting your game. In this video, we reveal a smarter way to recover:
✔ Track the ball immediately after your shot
✔ Move your racket into position for the next shot instead of blindly resetting
✔ Improve your timing, balance, and flow during rallies
Whether you’re a beginner or advanced player, understanding this subtle change can have a big impact on your consistency and speed around the table.
