Sorry I meant do you have any videos for the pen grip backhand. If not can you explain how to do it for me.

No problems. The Reverse Backhand with Penhold is very similar to the Shakehand Backhand. The basics are the same. The main thing is to get the starting position right. This can be awkward, but you need to get the bat flat facing to where you want the ball to go. From there it gets a lot easier. Look at the Lesson on the Backhand Topspin as all the other points are relevant for you. We will try to do a Lesson on it in the next few weeks. See how the two shakehand players go with it. It may be worth a good look.

Thanks a bunch. The advice helped me a lot with the backhand. I was wondering where i could find a Penhold racket with rubber on both sides, because i primarily do the reverse backhand.
