Naming the Penhold Grip Used by Félix Lebrun and Dang Qiu
Hi everyone 👋
I wanted to start a discussion about finding a consensus on naming the penhold grip used by players like Félix Lebrun and Dang Qiu. This grip is characterized by having no fingers at the back of the racket, providing more control but less power.
We've seen different penhold styles before, such as the "J-Pen" (popularized by Ryu Seungmin and Kim Taek Soo) and the "C-Pen" (popularized by Wang Hao and Xu Xin). Now, it's time to name this distinct grip style.
I propose calling it the "European Penhold" (E-Pen) or "Modern Penhold" (Mod-Pen). What do you think? Do you have any other suggestions?
I'd love to hear your ideas, and maybe we can set up a poll with the best suggestions!
