Hi coach, 

I have few questions.

1.What is the diference between a high throw angle and low throw angle rubbers? How to play with each of them?

2.Which one is better/easier for looping, topspin? 

Thanks for answer. Wish you a nice day. Thomas

Hi Thomas,

The High Throw angle rubbers tend to be able to lift the ball more off backspin.  The low throw angle rubbers the ball comes out flatter.

For looping the high throw angle rubbers tend to be better.   They are my preference anyway.

Also be awate that the blade has its own throw angle as well. So if you pair a high throw rubber with a high throw blade, you get an extra-high setup. If you mix a low throw blade with a high throw rubber, you get a neutral setup. Etc.
