Some say bench is the main exercise that describes strength,others argue that deadlift is the king of all yet others believe that its pathetic if you can deadlift 500lbs but cant pullup a single one.
I mean even babies do it, right ;)?
Everything i write about pullups is the same for chinups if you can't do them.
False grip: in order to hit you forarms,wrists and tendons more during the pullup motion you use the false grip technique:
Start lightly as this motion is hard for your wrists,try to do this motion with the pullups first.
Flexibility of the wrist is the answer here.
This motion is used in armwrestling too(hook) and well its hard to use it unless you practise it a lot.
Here is pullup routine i used to get to 20 pullups:

I have too much information about pullups i will post it later but now i will try to go with the topic i started which is bodyweight for grip strength.
I will write few more bodyweight exercises that increase your tendons and wrist strength and flexibility:
The Crow:
If you think this exercise is easy i dare you to try it, it is one of the hardest body weight exercises if you do it right.
But first put a pillow in front of you unless you want a bleeding nose.
Shoulder strength, strong tendons,flexible wrists and stable core, and balance is the answer for this exercise.
It works hard on your forearms as well, i highly recommend this exercise to anyone as it damn hard.
Here is basic information about the benefits of this exercise:

The hardest part in this exercise is to be in balance which requires great fingers strength and core.
This exercise is great as a starting exercise for your shoulder routine as it requires great energy.
At first try to aim for a minute total(if you fall you try again untill minute passes) for three sets.
If your arms are'nt straight at the start- it doesnt matter, this exercise is hard and requires practice just like everything else.
As you get stronger aim to straighten you arms,bent you head further and even try to handstand from this position.
The best exercise to prepare for this one is handstand as it strengthens the same tendons and wrist part.
There are many more body weight exercises to increase your grip strength via them but they are much harder like OAP(one arm pullups),iron cross,human flag etc.
Start with the basics: I will write in the future about pullups and body weight exercises as i think i have much more information about them especially calisthenics.
