Can you get hurt in the wrist when you play with the penhold grip.

Hi Tim,

No, there is no greater danger with using the penhold grip.  Problems with the wrist usually arise when the player has tension in the wrist.  It doesn't matter whether they are playing shaekhand or penhold. Have you had wrist problems?

Strawberry Flick

The strawberry flick is the opposite of the banana flick and involves utilising the wrist to get the ball spinning with topspin and sidespin. Used in conjunction with the banana flick it can be very deceptive. The banana flick is a more reliable stroke and that's why you see more top players using it over the strawberry flick.
