Everything you need to know about how to hold a pickleball paddle — all in one video. We break down every major grip style including the Eastern forehand, Eastern backhand, Continental, Hybrid, Semi-Western, and Western grips, so you can find the one that fits your game.
Whether you're a beginner figuring out the basics or an advanced player looking to fine-tune your technique, grip is one of the most overlooked fundamentals in pickleball.

Beyond grip style, we dive into one of the most underrated techniques in the game: grip position on the handle. Choking up toward the throat of the paddle gives you faster hand speed at the kitchen — and yes, you can still hit a two-handed backhand from that position.

On the flip side, hanging off the bottom of the handle at the baseline unlocks more plow-through, more spin, and more power on your drives. Small adjustment, massive difference.
Your grip is the only connection between you and the paddle — getting it right changes everything. If you've ever searched how to hold a pickleball paddle, this is the video you've been looking for.
