Defensive rubbers
Equipment
D K Asked 10 years ago
Hello again
Recently I found out that my forehand rubber is too fast for chopping and it tends to have a very high throw (if I loop,the ball is following the movement of my bat too long. And if I chop, the ball tends to be vertical to the ground. This happens even if I play into no spin ball, regardless of my technique)
How exactly is important what bat I am using?
Should I change my rubber or just my sponge?
If yes, what rubber would you recommend and shall I write which rubbers I have already tried (and rejected) to help you with choosing your advice?

Hi D K,
The rubber will not make a big difference. Just keep working on technique instead.

Choosing a Table Tennis Bat
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.

I know that the technique is much more important,but the rubber should not be ignored completely,shouldn't it?
As long as you have something reasonable it is OK.
