Shouldnt you put it the other way, ie open it up for FH looping of backspin, and close it the other way for BH looping?
I have seen people change grips before, but usually the other way round lol. I personally dont change grips, except when serving, which doesnt really count as a "real" grip change I guess, since everyone does it on FH serves. ------------- Nittaku Acoustic FL T05 Acuda S2 2.0mm |

Well...for me its easier to loop a heavy chop with a closed position...its a lot easier believe me!! and thats what I have seen on a lot of videos, when the chop is not that heavy I can loop it or atack with the open position, well thats work for me!...thanx for the comments anyway!!...cheers from M�xico!! ------------- TABLE TENNIS...The Fastest Game On Earth!!!!

even some penholders have the habit to change grips slightly. ------------- BL: Yasaka Extra Offensive CP FH: Hurricane 3 Pro BH: Tenergy 05 "Practice is USELESS if you don't understand what you are doing." |

i think i understand where he is coming from.
If its lite backspin, he opens the face, and loops forwards more... If its heavy, he closes it a bit, but loops upwards more. ??? maybe? ------------- Thats not a knife THIS is a knife. Thats not a knife THATS a spoon. |

yea and you also change how tightly and loose you hold the racquet depending on what kind of ball you're getting. ------------- BL: Yasaka Extra Offensive CP FH: Hurricane 3 Pro BH: Tenergy 05 "Practice is USELESS if you don't understand what you are doing." |
