Hi Indip,

Take a look at the lesson we have on the Penhold Techniques for Table Tennis lesson we have. This will show you the penhold backhand technique. You can also take a look at the Reverse Penhold Backhand which is a more difficult stroke but something that you can look at introducing into your game.

Anticipation

How is it that a player can always seem to get back those extremely fast topspins? Is it their incredible anticipation? The key to good anticipation actually lies in tracking the ball well. When you watch the ball closely your peripheral vision will pick up your opponents movements and with lots of practice those signs will help you anticipate what your opponent is going to do. This happens naturally with lots of experience. So it it your job to ensure that you are tracking the ball really carefully.
