Reverse penhold forehand

fuenia godly Asked 10 years ago

Hi coach, I wonder if it's worth to practice RPF style( w/ high spin rubber) and pips-out rubber on the usual forehand side. It's like you can either hit the ball with the pips-out rubber or the high spin rubber of your choice in your forehand.

Hi Fuenia,

I think you mean switching rubber on the forehand with the penhold style. I think this is a good variation if you an manage it. It will certainly confuse your opponents if you can make some long pimpled strokes with the forehand as well.
