Changing Grip
Strokes
syed suhaib Asked 12 years ago
I started playing TT with a penhold grip and now find my backhand very restricted and find it difficult to change to the shakehand grip. How can I change and what would you suggest I do. Thank you!

Hi Syed,
If you haven't been playing for too many years you can think about changing your grip. The main thing you will need to work on is your backhand technique. Take a look at our lessons on the Backhand Counterhit.
The backhand is the main difference between the grips. Once you make up your mind stay with the grip and focus on improvement.

Snake Shot
A snake shot is a type of stroke which is specifically used against a drop shot. It is usually loaded with a heavy spin so that the opponent finds it difficult to counter. The type of spin can be backspin, sidespin or topspin depending on your choice. You need to make a movement after hitting the ball to confuse your opponent.
