Why use a cpen paddle over a shakehand paddle?

Sahun Hong Asked 15 years ago

Is there any distinctive advantage to using a cpen paddle for rpb style of play, instead of a regular shakehand paddle? I currently use a shakehand paddle and it seems to work fine for me.

Thank you !

Hi Sahun,

It is a matter of preference.  Some players like the shorter handle.  If you like the shakehand bat then go for it.
