Twiddle for smash

Hello I've seen most of the professional players twiddle when they start smashing. Why do they do that and should we do this as well? Thank you in advance.

Hi Jeypi,

A few of them do that because they have a harder rubber on the backhand side and like the feel of the smash with the harder rubber.  I don't think it is necessary for most of us.

Tone is in Your Fingers

There's is an old saying about guitar playing - tone is in your fingers. And If you've ever seen a really good guitarist play an old guitar then you'll understand how true that saying is. I know we go on a lot about this topic but it is so true. Once you've got yourself a decent bat, it's no longer up to the equipment, it's up to YOU!

I read somewhere that most players actually have hard rubber on their forehand and twiddle,because their backhand is softer,but MORE BOUNCY to compensate the fact that forehand can always get more power than backhand due to pure human body limitations.
What doyou think about this?
