Hi Alois.

I saw a video of Ma Long teaching some strokes & his Grip.

He said I put my thumb on the rubber for the backhand and my racket won't wobble.

And It's easier to adjust the angle of the bat.

But the point is there that we have to change the grip fast.

I use a same shakehand  grip but my backhands doesn't have enough control and accuracy .

Can I use this little change of the grip?

I feel comfortable with that.

Hi Ali,

You can try to make the small changes.  It does get players a bit confused sometimes if they can't change quickly enough.

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.
