Hi Andrej,

Here is one we have made that is on our Youtube channel.  Penhold Techniques for Table Tennis.  It will give you some good information of playing as a penholder.

I was recently in Slovenia and can honestly say that your part of the world is very beautiful.

Backhand Topspin Against Block

We delve into the essential techniques for executing a consistent backhand topspin against a block. We cover three critical aspects:​

  1. Foot Position: Ensuring a stable and balanced stance to facilitate quick movements.​ 
  2. Start Position: Positioning your racket and body correctly to initiate the stroke effectively.​ 
  3. 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.​

Whether you're a beginner aiming to build a solid foundation or an advanced player looking to refine your technique, this comprehensive guide is designed to enhance your game.

I really enjoy the game much more so with the penhold.  The great shots with penhold, to me, are more satisfying then when using shakehand.  I don't know why, but I feel like I'm cheating when I use shakehand.  I too would like more penhold videos.
