Strokes
How does Ryu Seung Min play with only one side of his racquet? And what kind of racquet does he use?
Hi Joaquin,
He uses the Penhold grip. Take a look at our lesson titled Get a Grip to see how to do this grip.
We also have a lesson on using this technique on youtube. Take a look at Penhold Techniques for Table Tennis. This will show you more about the penhold grip and the strokes that you can do with it.
He uses a traditional penhold bat which is rectangular in shape.
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.
