Hi,
Thanks for your interest. We have a lesson available on our Youtube channel which will be useful for you. It shows you the basic techniques of the penhold grip and also it will show you the similarities of technique between penhold and shakehand.
Take a look at Penhold Techniques for Table Tennis. After watching it you will see where you will be able to relate the rest of our lessons to your penhold game.
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.
