Changing grips

Strokes

Lukas Oberbanscheidt Asked 13 years ago

You made a video about serving with penhold and playing with shakehand. I found a way to change it very quickly. So is it legal to serve with penhold and play with shakehand?

Alois Rosario Answered 13 years ago

Hi Lukas,

It is legal to change grips but it is easier to just modify your shakehand grip slightly by taking your three fingers off the handle when you are serving and then out them back straight after you serve.

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.
