Equipment
Hi alois,
i just bought a Double happiness Skyline 3 tg3 rubber with special chinese sponge number 21 which the color is blue (just like the china national team sponge)
i want to ask you what's the different between chinese and european rubber ? because i use tenergy 05 fx for my forehand now
regards,
Adrian
Hi Adrian,
The Chinese rubber tends to have a harder sponge. The blue sponge tends to be quite hard. With the harder rubber you can bush over the ball a bit more whereas with the softer sponge you can hit through the ball a bit more.
There's is an old saying about guitar playing - tone is in your fingers. And If you've ever seen a really good guitarist play an old guitar then you'll understand how true that saying is. I know we go on a lot about this topic but it is so true. Once you've got yourself a decent bat, it's no longer up to the equipment, it's up to YOU!

If budget is tight do you prefer lower priced European rubher or a better Chinese rubber ? I am playing tt from last 4 years and I am an aggressive player.
Go for whatever feels right but the Chinese rubbers do tend to be a bit cheaper.
