penholders

Hi, I am seeking advice due to a lack of a coach. Currently, I play penhold with a grip similar to Felix Lebrun's, though slightly extended but not as much as Dang Qiu. For the most part it looks like this: However, yesterday while playing I decided to try the Xu Xin grip with the straight...

Hi fellow table tennis enthusiasts, I play penhold, and I noticed the forehand of Xu Xin and Liu Guoliang differs very much in how they look and their technique. I see Liu Guoliang with a very loose wrist, almost limp with his racket creating 90 degrees with his arm. On the other hand, Xu...

Anyone know professional players with penhold grip (japanese penhold or chinese penhold with rpb, tpb or rpb block, don't matter) with blocking style? If have amateurs, send too.

Hello fellow PENHOLDERS I was wondering what is your go too backhand rubber that you use daily... I would like to know the hardness also, would like to get a general consensus on what people prefer and choose to use for Rpb. From what I have seen the consensus is between tenergy and Chinese...

I've tried looking up answers but I get nothing, you guys would be the best help I'd hope as there are many penholders on this site :)

Reporter: We believe you have an excellent understanding of how to play against the penholder style. Can you share with us your experiences? Kong Linghui: Penholders in general have weaker backhands, although the Chinese are different than the foreign players in this respect. Our players have...

This is a question for my fellow penhold players what type of blade do you use and what kind of rubber and sponge do you guys use?

Whos your best penholder of all time?
