Changing rubbers
Equipment
Ivandri Lowell Asked 13 years ago
Hi Coaches, since my coach told me that my bat's rubber is slow, I'm now considering to change my rubber, so I want to ask, how will changing my rubber to a new one will affect my playing and how to differs good rubber and the one that is not?

Hi Ivandri,
A faster rubber will make the ball travel faster and it will also make it a little easier to play your strokes without effort.
One disadvantage is that you will find it harder to control the ball so don't get anything too fast.
If you stay with a well known quality rubber you will be OK.

Make sure you buy a table tennis bat that is suitable for your level and allows you to develop your technique. For your first bat we recommend the PingSkills Rook, and when you upgrade to a custom bat we recommend the PingSkills Touch with Mark V or Rakza 7.

Not necessarily. It may lead to less spin if it is really fast.
