How can you add more spin? is it in the rubber of the paddle? or the brand?

Hi Jerome,

There are several factors that will give you better spin. The rubber needs to be reasonable quality with some grip on it otherwise you will not be able to get any spin. The brand doesn't matter, just the actual quality of the rubber.

Then you need to be able to get a fine and fast brushing action on the ball to be able to get spin.
