Different fh and bh rubbers

Denys Laporte Asked 2 years ago

Hi guys, well done with your site!

In general, should one buy different rubbers for fh and bh.fh is more powerful and less precise as bh is weaker and more control/precise.

Merci

Hi Denys,

Thank you for the kind words about the site.

Initially when starting out I think having the same rubber on both sides is fine.  As you develop your game you can definitely think about different rubbers.  Your thinking of a slower rubber on the  backhand and faster more attacking rubber on the forehand is sound thinking.
