Strokes
Hi Alois
I know that you should always have a relaxed grip but is it sometimes beneficial to use a firm grip when using LP? For example, might hitting with a firm grip increase spin reversal? Or does the rule of hitting with a loose grip apply to all rubbers in all situations?
Thanks

Hi Jisoo,
When you are punching the ball with Long Pimples, you can have a firmer grip but you can still do the stroke well with a relaxed grip. So I guess the short answer is that you can have a relaxed grip for all of your shots.
