Hello Alois , I have seen your video about table tennis rubbers and your advice was to replace rubbers every 3 to 4 months and your test to check whether it is time to change the rubber by rubbing the tt ball on the rubber.my rubber is quite old but it has now got into the tune of my playing style but the ball doent grip anymore.what do u think-should i change the rubbers or leave them?

Hi Swaroop,

You should change them if you are looking to develop your game.  If you can't generate spin it will make it difficult to develop your strokes.

A solvent if the best solution.  You still have to progress slowly.
