Oh damn. Thats interesting. Well I was wrong then!

I still wouldn't say no cork is better, since for companies it would be a waste of time, but they still add them. Why? Because it has a use.

Well anyway it's really up to the player

I guess cork is there for added stability, but kills forehand backhand transition.

Makes sense, so having and having not would provide useful.

Yesterday's complete video on jpen grip by Kim Taek Soo:

I know this video it will be better on a thread of jpen grip, but is is also without handle cork, and is complimentary to videos posted above.

It is a pity youtube does not really translate nothing into English.

Follow up question: how do you guys take off the cork? Hot gun? Chemicals? Razor blade? Sand paper?
