Coaching students who use Chinese rubber

Strokes

Hi Guys, Do you change your coaching advice regarding stroke technique depending on the type of rubber your student uses?  Specifically whether or not they use a tacky Chinese style rubber on a harder sponge v.s. grippy, softer sponge rubber.

 Thanks,

Dave

Hi David,

The players that use the harder sponge rubbers will tend to have a slightly more horizontal stroke and vice versa.

I don't tend to change players rubbers too much though.

Backhand Flick

The backhand flick allows you to attack a short ball. Learn this stroke to make it more difficult for your opponent to stop you attacking.
