Hi, Alois

I got my LP, Stiga Destroyer, but, I got a little bit confused, because, someone told me to check if it is legal. I don't know how. Please, could you tell me is my rubber legal to use?

Second thing: if I remove topsheet from sponge (I have 1,5 mm sponge), and stick only that topsheet on the blade, is it legal to do? Thank you

Hi Sasha,

The Destroyer is legal.  You can check it on the ITTF website, ittf.com.  You go to the Equipment section and then go to the Racket Coverings link to check all rubbers that are legal.

OK, but, what about second part of my question? Can I remove the top sheet from the sponge and place it on the blade? Basically, I want to know is it legal to transform LP with sponge to OX version, if I successfully remove the top sheet, can I play with it on some f.e. official ITTF tournament? Thanks

I dont know, Hang Hao seems to use a butterfly sriver with a brycle sponge. As far as I know you cannot buy them.

Sasha,

No you have to use it as it is manufactured otherwise it is not approved.

I get it. So, if I want to play with Destroyer OX, I have to buy it that way. Thank you so much
