How do I use the flared-straight handle of my ping pong (table tennis) racquet?
I bought a butterfly kenji paddle and it comes with a unique flared-straight handle style in which one side of the handle is straight and the other side is flared (concave in the middle).
I want to know the logic behind this and also how to use this grip to get the maximum out of it?
The sculpted handle is designed to keep the bat stable in your hand. For instance, a straight handle doesn’t keep your bat from sliding out of your sweaty hand. The curved side goes “down”, and the straight side “up”. This designates which side of the bat is the backhand and forehand side: you won’t be “flipping” your bat. The anatomic and flared handles provide the same type of stability in your hand, without limiting you to using a single side on the forehand and backhand. Of course, flipping only comes into play if you have different rubbers on either side of the bat. Hope that helps.
