Timo Salmi Asked 7 years ago

Hi Guys,

I have played now Rakza 7 1,8 mm and thinking to change it to Rakza 7 2,0 mm. Can you tell me is there a big difference between these rubbers when playing? I mean pushing, looping, blocking and so on?

Best Regards

Timo

Hi Timo,

There certainly is a noticeable difference between 1.8mm and 2.0mm. As you have used the 1.8mm for a while I think it will be fine to switch to the 2.0mm version, especially if you have good control and are now looking for some extra speed. So based on your play and interest, I'd suggest you give it a go!

Hi Jeff,

Hi Jeff,

I have now played 2 weeks with rakza 2,0 mm in my FH and its so good. I can make better serves,topspins,blocks... I have now won opponents that I never won before. After few months Ill try that 2,0 mm instead of 1.8 mm in my BH.

Thanks

Timo

U actually have a better control on 2.0mm rubber and generates a lot of spin and speed due to thickness, so 2.0mm is better.

So maybe to backhand also?

Backhand depend how good u make use of ur skills in backhand. It is good to have 2.0mm rubber as backhand or u can take pimple rubbers but u must make a good use of it because the whole game mostly depends upon ur backhand.what ever may happen , for me, 2.0m  rubbers have a lot of benefit but u must have a proper control because may face the lack of control on their 2.0mm rubber and if u have a good control ...then people must be afraid of u.
