Hwansik Kim explains his 'No Friction Grip' technique, developed to maintain control in adverse conditions like sweaty hands or rain. The method emphasizes specific pressure points, particularly using the support hand's index finger on the trigger guard and the top knuckles of the support hand on the firing hand. This technique aims to minimize reliance on grip enhancers and provide consistent control through recoil by creating a stable platform without excessive friction.
