Liu Zihang : Best Penholder style ? Slim pips and spinny inverted

Post by x loop »

This 15 year old kid is ranked #20 in Under 15 Boys.
He is a TPG cPen player.
He mostly uses slim pips to block or chop block with great consistency on forehand as well as TPG strokes on backhand as well to block or chop-block.
In the video below he has two matches, semi-final & final (he wins in straight games)

Red rubber is slim pips
Black rubber is spinny inverted which he uses a lot just to serve & quickly twiddles to re slim pips.
But the interesting thing about him is that he seems to have great anticipation during a rally.
He anticipates weak balls & twiddles & puts away using spinny inverted side (black rubber) with a fast loop kill
