Could you plz design videos specified for penholders. You see, your videos are meant mostly for shakeholders........................so ...............plz.

Hi Sandesh,

The similarities between penhold and shakehand are numerous. The only real difference is with the bachand block. Even the reverse penhold baclhand has a very similar techniwue to the shakehand backhand topspin.

Take a look at our lesson on the Penhold Techniques for Table Tennis.

But it's really difficult to manage the angles yourself. The shakehands grip has a simple hold but the penhold is really difficult, especially with the backhand side. And it's really difficult to manage the angle of the bat that side.

This is where training becomes very important. Angles are a matter of trial and error. With the oenhold you can use your fingers a little more to get the angle right.
