Hi Pingskills,

How does Zhang Jike hold the bat? I noticed that he doesn't hold it in the way you have shown us in your video for how to hold a bat.

Hi Nasko,

It is a similar grip.  He tends to have it a little more of a backhand grip.  This is very slight though.  The basic grip still applies, you can modify a grip to suit your game but don't go too far from the basic.

Forehand Topspin Variations

A great weapon is being able to vary the amount of speed and spin on your forehand topspin stroke. By making your stroke more vertical and brushing the ball finely, you can generate more spin. For more speed you need to swing more horizontally.
