RPB Block
Strokes
Kabeer Sayed Asked 7 years ago
Hi Alois,
I am trying to decide whether I should use a traditional Penhold block or use my reverse side instead.
I realised Xu Xin uses his rpb for blocking as well as looping.
What do you think I should do?
Also, if I should use the RPB, what is the technique for blocking with it?

Hi Kabeer,
You can use both or either the traditional block or RPB block. I feel like the traditional block is a little more stable and easier to learn however if you learn to block with the RPB you can transition easier to an attacking shot if the ball comes to you a little slower or easier.
To block with the RPB you can follow the basic principles of the Backhand Block tutorial.
