+Mr Pernickety Thanks. I'm glad you are liking the channel. Make sure to take a look at the PingSkills website too and sign up for our free email newsletter with lots of table tennis tips.
Very helpful, ive recently been playing more table tennis since i got a table for free and i recently switched to this grip after noticing the olympic players that used this grip were dominant, and this grip to me is much more versatile and agile than the shakehand, i found your video whilst searching to refine my skills with the penhold and this vid certainly helped me (mostly with the topspin or loop shot, i was pleased to find that i was already doing most of these shots properly) thanks!
@poopootae I'm glad you found it useful. It is OK to have a small variation in grip between the backhand and forehand. As long as it is seamless to switch from backhand to forehand and vice versa.
Hahaha I love how you stay so calm to that little guy saying he is better. He could never know! Matt didn't even play full power, he was just showing techniques. Good video!
@AceofDlamonds Good question. I think if it is played correctly it doesn't put too much strain on the wrist. And when blocking topspin, you do need to counter the topspin regardless of which grip you use.
It sounds like you need to practice this. See if you can get a training partner to play to your backhand and then practice hitting the ball down the line. If it always goes cross court you may have to even aim off the table. Don't be scared about missing the ball, it's important during training to experiment whilst you are learning.
I started out playing table tennis using the Shakehand grip. I recently switched to Penhold. I have always dabbled with Penhold, but finally, I decided that my style dictated that I make the jump to Penhold. My serves are my strength and I can put much more spin on them and have more control using Penhold. Thank you for this video. I am positive that I made the right decision and will continue to practice both grips, but focus mainly on Penhold.
The penhold is a great grip, and much underrated. Having switched you'll get some puzzled looks, and a lot of players asking why on earth you would want to do such a thing. When they see the different variety of spin you get on your loops, chops and top spins, and they have trouble reading it, then you can say "that's why!" Penhold isn't for everyone, but if it feels comfortable, it is definitely worth a try. I find in my local league that players simply aren't used to it and they have a lot of trouble reading what's coming at them.
@liontoxicatorR We don't get much room here to answer in detail. It sounds like this might need a bit of discussion. It might be best if you post a question on our website under the Ask the Coach section!
@vblings The problem is that we are shakehand players so know a lot more about this style of play. A lot of our tutorials are still applicable to the penhold grip as the basic principles do not change.
That's great LAGman91. Keep up the good work! If you can find a table tennis club in your area you should try and join up, it will be a great experience.
Traditionally a penholder would only use one side of the bat. But nowadays most people starting out with the penhold grip are also learning the "reverse penhold backhand" (rpb) which uses the other side of the bat.
@gulligagardinen The main thing to concentrate on is brushing the ball on the side. To get a lot of spin you need to brush the ball and have your bat moving quickly.
@meandonlyme1998 Good question. I'm not really sure how to answer this one. Maybe try posting this on our website under our Ask the Coach section and we'll get a real answer for you!
@argonmeditation Concentrate on your start and finish positions. These are the most critical to get right. You can practice the stroke away from the table just to get the feel of the shot right. Once you get a bit more comfortable go back to the table and try and get 5 on in a row. Work on improving your consistency. Start hitting the ball slowly and then aim for 10 in a row. You can always ask us a question on our website using "Ask the Coach". We've got more room for answers there!
@Kakashinoor Especially with the forehand loop, the principles are very similar for both the shakehand and penhold grips. Try watching the videos on our website about the forehand loop and concentrate on the start and finish position of the stroke. This will be the same and if you can get these right you are well on your way to being able to play it consistently.
@raegiorem If you don't have a table then hitting against a wall can help. In fact if you look at our free lessons on our website, you'll find one called practicing alone. This will give you some more ideas on how you can practice without a table. Good luck!
i just started using penhold grip, i grip more toward the end of handle and spread out the three fingers on backside, and hold the bat somewhat perpendicular to hand. i find this grip very flexible in hitting different ball flights, though not as powerful as the shakehand grip, i can use both bat sides very naturally. the downside is work too much for the wrist, in fact curling fingers only increases burden on the wrist. good work.
Very nice video, thank you! Hard to find good instructions for penholders. A video with advanced pehold serve techniques would be great too. It seems to me that if you are mostly relying on RPB, like Wang Hao, then you pretty much still have the crossover point weakness in more or less the same spot? I am not an expert, I tried both grips, and to me the main advantage of penhold is more control on the spin because of its extended amplitude of wrist movement. I guess, from my limited understanding, one disadvantage of penhold would be for chopping defenders -- looks like that play style is better suited for shakehand?
Great observations. Certainly if you use the reverse penhold backhand then you do have a crossover point. You can still play a traditional backhand with the penhold though. And yes chopping is much easier for shakehand players.
When I was first learning ping pong, my brother forced me to learn the penholder grip. It turns out to be by far the best, as for me, it virtually eliminates the backhand, and most of your movement is in the wrist. Also, you can really put some spin on the ball, and make killer short shots.
@GooGooGaGa10 Take a look on our website as we have a lesson on the shakehand grip. We have also just answered a question via video about changing your grip during a rally so check out ask the coach or our search for the video on our channel. Basically it is OK to have a small change in grip as long as you are not getting caught out with the wrong grip and losing points. Good luck!
@raegiorem it's really a personal preference. What grip do you feel most comfortable with. Another consideration might be which grip can you get the best coaching for where you live.
@David Baile pen hold is an awesome grip. However, looking at the shake hand grip, it has a terribly weak backhand. So as mentioned in this video, try practising the reverse penhold backhand cause it increases your backhand efficiency alot. I am a penhold and one of the best at where i play. Hope you love table tennis too. Good luck
Nice video. However, I have a very unique grip. I hold the paddle with just my pinky and my thumb and I use my other fingers to stablize and keep the paddle flush or as angled as I need it. It works with my backhand which is not a typical backhand. There are several ways but each one has to find there own and what works. You guys should do a video on different paddle types. Thanks and great channel
You need to try and adjust the angle of your bat so you don't hit the ball down. Watch the video and try to get a good picture in your mind of how the stroke is played. Then practice it without a ball (this is called shadow play). Once you feel you've got the stroke correct then try it out on the table.
it took me about 1 summer of practice to get comfortable to play it in game situation - for my friends and it, it tends to generate more power than the forehand (when the forehand doesn't get the left foot power step forward)
@arash1902 the penhold style yr talking about is the japanese penhold style which only has a rubber on one side, in this video they are using the chinese style penhold which has two sides of rubber.
I’ve had a habit of using the penhold grip for my entire life. As a kid I had a paddle that handle was too short for me, so I started holding it like that.
I am looking for a new penhold paddle. I'm 13 years old so would the Japanese penhold be harder for me or hurt my game? Should I just go with Chinese penhold? I'm sort of on the side of Japanese style. Thanks!!
Is there not a reverse forehand? I find that you can generate ridiculous amounts of topspin using the reverse side of the bat on the forehand - can't get it very accurate though.
+TheLivingHeiromartyr I think that is the reason it hasn't become very popular, because the consistency just isn't there. Players can get consistency and power using the standard technique. It is fun to try the reverse forehand though :)
pretty sure the spin is coming for extra brushing. You can get similar from a regular forehand if you just change your stroke. The only use for reverse forehand would be if you have really different rubber on your backhand side to confuse your opponent.
@raegiorem I don't think it is better as such. There are great players who have used the penhold grip and there are great players who have used the shakehand. As you say though, everything requires more practice :) Keep working hard and you'll make progress.
@extremetabletennis16 Thanks for your response. I have never used antispin rubber. It is more of a defensive rubber I think. Can it be used effectively as an offensive drive/topspin?
Hello Alois! I have a question about which penhold grip i should use since I am extremely conflicted between using the japanese penhold and the chinese penhold. I use cchinese penhold when I serve and I switch to japanese when I rally. I tried both chinese and japanese penhold and they both work fine except for reverse penhold backhand which I prefer chinese penhold more. My question is, should I use the chinese penhold or the japanese penhold? I also want to thank you for making a video about penhold techniques since everyone is pretty much doing tutorials on shakehand techniques
Hello PingSkills! I'd just like to ask for some extra tips on the reverse backhand. I hit the ball right on and it keeps flying off the table. Anything you can tell me?
It sounds like you need to get more topspin on the ball to drag it down. To do this you need to hit the ball with a fast brushing contact. Don't hit the ball too flat.
Missing key point: when doing the reverse backhand topspin, it's important to put pressure on the thumb while turning the wrist inwards before contact. You can see many top penhold players such as Xu Xin do this.
Hi, i have big problem... I really like this grip and i would like to learn how to play it, but when I play about 30min with this grip, my fingers and hand hurts massively, I dont know why... this is keeping me for using this grip, that I really like.
How are you going to blame a bat for uncomfortable holding. Your fingers are probably just not used to being in that position or the way its being pressure in weird ways. Either adjust your grip or get used to it. Even shakehand made my fingers hurt when I first used it. Well, not massively. I'm hoping that's an exaggeration or else it's probably your fingers that are the problem.
Hi Alois, I find my forehand to be more powerful and have more spin with the penhold so I'm definitely keeping the grip, but could you please make a vides or give me tips for my penhold inverted backhand. I'm a lefty and I find the face of the bat tends to face left and it feels awkward. Please help!
Hi Terry Curve, We do cover the reverse penhold backhand in this video. We talk a bit about how to get the bat facing toward the ball. Let me know if it helps out.
My left ear learnt a lot from this video.
Yes, I'm really sorry that your right ear couldn't help you with this video. In our later videos we have fixed this :-)

Dev!
Yep u can. That's the traditional Korean/Japanese penhold grip. (The first time Japan and Korea actually AGREED on something). Plus that's what I use!
yaaaaah keep it up bro
Very helpful, ive recently been playing more table tennis since i got a table for free and i recently switched to this grip after noticing the olympic players that used this grip were dominant, and this grip to me is much more versatile and agile than the shakehand, i found your video whilst searching to refine my skills with the penhold and this vid certainly helped me (mostly with the topspin or loop shot, i was pleased to find that i was already doing most of these shots properly) thanks!

BEAUTIFULLY DONE, i wasnt much of a penholder fan. but after trying this my penholder technique increased quite a bit

@vblings The problem is that we are shakehand players so know a lot more about this style of play. A lot of our tutorials are still applicable to the penhold grip as the basic principles do not change.
I am playing table tennis about a month, I learnt the penhold 1 week after I started and noticed that my reactions and strokes have greatly improved!
That's great LAGman91. Keep up the good work! If you can find a table tennis club in your area you should try and join up, it will be a great experience.
wow great video, I am now so much more confident with penhold, can not wait for some basement table tennis!

@kingspartan375299 To put sidespin on the ball you need to brush the ball on the side of the ball. This will get the ball spinning around.

@liontoxicatorR Great. I'll tell Alois to watch out for your question.
@Golden2Talon Yeah sorry about that. We are getting better at producing our videos now so hopefully all our newer videos have better volume levels.
@raegiorem it's really a personal preference. What grip do you feel most comfortable with. Another consideration might be which grip can you get the best coaching for where you live.
Sound quality is a real ear killer for headphone users.
Thanks for the feedback Hirobian. On all our newer videos we have increased the sound quality.
That is good new! :)
Thank you very much for sharing this knowledge and doing it in a way that's easy to understand
You're welcome.
Amazing video, i was about to try shake hand grip, but now i can try reverse back hand with the pen hold grip
@wesley621375 It's in there from about the 6:00 mark.
@pingskills Okay,il be posting on the forums shortly.
@NC56Fiesta Your welcome.
@herlequin We don't use the rating system that the US does.
@kevtyan If you've only got rubber on one side then you won't be able to play the Reverse Penhold Backhand.
As both Alois and I are shakehand players, we are going to be making a lot more videos using this grip.
Gracias por compartirlo. Desde Gran Canaria, España!
You are welcome.
This video was very informational
I'm excited to try them when I go practice on Monday. :)
Great to hear queensalvatore. Good luck with your training session on Monday.

@Zkayber We actually have a video on how you can practice alone. Go to our website and check out our lessons page, you'll find it there.
Thanks for the lesson and suggestions!
@arash1902 the penhold style yr talking about is the japanese penhold style which only has a rubber on one side, in this video they are using the chinese style penhold which has two sides of rubber.
I was wondering how to put right and left spin on a ball while using the penhold technique???
@Zkayber Great. Make sure you check out our website too. Just Google for PingSkills!
This is VERY helpful thanks👍🏾
It helped me in my school table tennis matches

If you think the Japanese style suits you better then go with that.
If you want more power, use JPen. If you want more flexibility, use CPen.
I'm a former jpen player and the rpb on the cpen is very deadly. I recommend cpen
Is it possible to execute a chop using the penhold grip? I've never seen any penholders chopping
Thank you Brother, this video helped clear things up with me about pen hold grip. May you always follow GOD's guidance brother, keep safe
I'm a penholder :) . Great video, thanks a lot.
Thanks a lot for sharing this, it was very helpful.

+MophisGames That is strange. It sounds like you might be holding the bat too tight. Maybe try focusing on keeping a relaxed grip next time you play?
PingSkills I dont gold it too tight, i have just bad bat.
+MophisGames I see. Then it sounds like you need to get a more comfortable bat. I hope that will solve your problems.
