grip

  1. Is my grip handicapping me a lot?

    I've had no formal instruction. When I pick up a paddle, it's natural for me to wrap my entire hand around the handle. Putting my thumb or index finger anywhere else feels weird. I use the same grip for both forehand and backhand. Can I improve my level while using this grip, or is it...

  4. Pro Players Not Using Grip Tape

    Hi, I have just been wondering abour why we don't see many pro players using grip tapes on their blade. I use one and i don't feel like i've comprimised anything by using it, and it gave me the benefit of being less worried that my blade slides in my hand (never been a big issue for me) and it...

  7. Grip change

    My coach has suggested that I use a lower more relaxed neutral grip. He wants the V between my thumb and forefinger to be lower down the handle. When I do this my thumb isn’t on the rubber and my forefinger just about is, admittedly I have small hands. I’ve been testing this out for a few weeks...

  10. Shoes that don't lose grip?

    I'm looking for table tennis (or any kind of shoe) that are lightweight and that I hopefully would be able to use for over a year? I have a pair of wave drive 6 or 7 and a pair of butterfly energy force. After about 6-12 months of using them for 3-4 times a week the grip just gets worse and...
  11. Penhold backside fingers

    Hi everyone! I'm a C-pen player, and I'm wondering if I should have only the fingertips of the ring and middle fingers touching the back of the racket (like Wang Hao), or have them all flat out (like Xu Xin). The reason being is that I position the back fingers like Wang Hao (backhand...

  13. Share pics of your penhold grip: rpb, tpb, jpen, pimples twiddling etc

    I primarily play rpb penhold, and given that most information is Chinese, and that is penholders are constantly seeking innovation in terms of our grip, a thread seemed appropriate. Atm, I still block using tpb, but primarily avoid this stroke, playing a much more ma Lin and Xu xin inspired...

  15. Would a grip tape help me find the anatomic feel on a flared handle

    Hi folks, So I went back to use my ZJK ALC after been working on my technique for few months now. I noticed that I'm so comfortable with my anatomic handle that I've trained with than the flared handle I have on ZJK ALC. My question is would a grip tape just help me find again the comfort of...
  16. FS Rasant Grip and bluefire JP01 turbo cut small but like new

    Just like the headline says - both rubbers are cut to 15 x 15 cm and will thus fit on most blades if you stretch them a bit. And let´s face it, on most levels it is of no importance if they´re just that little bit smaller ... I´ve played with these for about 3 hours each. Sensible offers...

  18. Why do some rubbers lose grip with a bit of moisture?

    I recently got andro rasant and powersponge but I'm noticing its very different from the 2nd hand tenergy I bought. The topsheet is uhmm kinda smooth? It loses its grip when there's a bit of moisture on it so I was wondering if this is normal or not. This never happened with tenergy. Thank you

    Hey. What are the important points to consider for a penhold grip compared to a shakehand grip? How important is the wrapping of the thumb and index? How does it effect the stroke? What about the other fingers: can you for example RPB with straight fingers or is there a definite reason why...
