Hi Alois,
This is Atoms again... How can I improve the grip of my racket?
Hi Atoms,
If the rubber is slippery then try just wiping it down with a damp sponge. If this doesn't improve the grip then it is time to get a new rubber.

Then don't try to do too much with it. You won't be able to improve the grip, just wipe it down with a damp sponge.

what about that free racket?

Sorry Antonio,
We don't have any free rackets.

Hi Coach Alois,
I changed my black rubber to Dawei 2008. It's a very fast rubber and it has very good grip too and it has improved all my serves and my backhand smash,topspin,chop and sidespin flick.How can I maintain it's grip besides using a damp sponge and rubber soap?

Just use range damp sponge to clean it. When you are not using the bat use a cover to store it. Also make sure you keep it away from direct sunlight. This is a big killer of rubber.

You could also use protection sheets - I always use them on my bats and every time I play is like I'm playing with a brand new rubber ;)
Cheerios,
