I break down when to use each grip, their strengths and weaknesses, and which pros are using them effectively in today’s fast-paced game. We start with the Continental grip, ideal for players who value consistency and versatility. I then move into the Eastern grip, a go-to for players who want more topspin and deception. The Semi-Western grip is all about maximum spin and aggressive baseline play, while the Pancake grip is a specialized tool for fast counter volleys at the kitchen line. I also walk through essential tweaks like using a trigger grip for better feel and how you can make micro-adjustments with your thumb to switch grips on the fly—especially useful during rapid exchanges. Whether you're an intermediate player looking to refine your technique or a beginner trying to figure out what grip works best, this video covers everything you need to improve control, increase spin, and dominate the kitchen line. Learn how the pros adjust mid-rally, and start incorporating these grip changes into your own game.
