Holding the racket

Jeff, is penhold better than shakehand hold , i tried to learn penhold but at time of pushing the ball i push it outside the table .. can u suggest me some tips

Hi Sanket,

If you are finding it difficult with the penhold grip then give the shakehand a try.

They both have their advantages and disadvantages.  Therefore go with the one that feels more comfortable for you.

At the top level, more players are using the shakehand grip now.

Take a look at our tutorial on Get a Grip for some tips.
