Hello Sir,

This is Mudit Sahai from INDIA.

I have been playing Table Tennis from last 2 years and have been using STAG POWER DRIVE PLUS which is a good customised BAT promising speed,spin of 85 and control 90.

I had been thinking of changing the backhand rubber with MARK V rubber but after watching the video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ts15JPS1K-w) i got a doubt on it that shall i replace the rubber on my same blade(wood)or should i get a completely new blade and rubber.

Hi Mudit,

I think putting Mark V on a pre made bat is OK in a lot of cases.  I don’t know the quality of the blade you have now.

I have seen the PingSkills Rook with better rubber on it and it works really well.  I would say, give it a try with the Stag bat as it seems to be at the higher end of their pre made bat range.

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.

But be careful while removing an old rubber from a pre-made bat. When I tried to do that with my old Atemi bat it turned to be impossible without damaging it, the glue was so sticky.
