Hi Hrishikesh,
Keep the grip as light as you possibly can without losing grip of the racket. In our video on Get a Grip we do a demonstration of how tight to hold the bat.

Backhand Topspin Against Block
We delve into the essential techniques for executing a consistent backhand topspin against a block. We cover three critical aspects:
- Foot Position: Ensuring a stable and balanced stance to facilitate quick movements.
- Start Position: Positioning your racket and body correctly to initiate the stroke effectively.
- Finish Position: Completing the stroke in a way that prepares you for the next shot.
Additionally, we discuss how to adjust your bat angle if the ball goes long, emphasizing the importance of maintaining the same start and finish positions without coming across your body.
