In the survey I did a while back, a few people asked about proper grip techniques and positions.
It can be a tricky subject because most people don’t realize that the way you hold the paddle at the beginning of the point is usually not how you’re holding it when you actually hit the ball. Plus, most paddles don’t have the octagonal base like a tennis grip, so it’s a little harder to gauge the angles of the paddle relative to your hand than in tennis or badminton.
In this article, I’m going to tell you about the most common grips I see players use across the country, how to tell the difference between them, and which one NOT to use if you’re one of those people who “Doesn’t Have a Backhand.”
