Illegal Rubber

Hi PingSkills!

I've heard that you cannot bring unapproved ITTF rubber to competitions, so I was wondering, should I stick to my old bat, the one with the approved rubber on one side? Or do I need to change the rubber on the backhand side? Or can I.. get away with illegal rubber at school or local tournments?

Thanks!

Hi Yu,

It is better to get used to playing with legal rubbers.

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.

Ohh. Okay.Thanks!
But the.. thing that covers the bat when you buy it has this ITTF logo and "Authorized Racket Covering" on it so I'm not so sure...
