Best grip for looping

Post by Fahriye »

Is Asian grip better than European grip for looping ?
Do you think Asian grip is far more versatile than European grip
Please note : This series of postings for best grips for specific strokes is not meant encourage you to switch to a different grip. Because every human has a natural grip that they can perform the best overall. For some it is European grip. For some it is Asian grip. American grip is a bit more complicated. I will explain this separately later.
So for most players it is a choice between Asian grip and European grip. Most Asian grip players can also play decent European grip but sadly the opposite is not true.

Not just better .
Actually far superior both on forehand & RPH backhand

On RPH backhand , because of built in natural hook loop action & also very deceptive as to whether going down straight loop the line or cross court hook loop
