Unglued rubber
Equipment
Romeo Chua Asked 10 years ago
I wanted an upgrade for my bat, since I have learnt the fundamental strokes, so I bought Yasaka Mark V to replace my tensor rubber. I removed it gingerly as you demonstrated on your video. Halfway through removing the rubber, I remembered I did not have glue with me 
. So I removed it entirely, and placed it on again. I needed to kinda stretch the rubber. To my surprise, it didn't come off! Probably due to the glue. Is it alright for me to play with a bat like that?

Hi Romeo,
You will probably find that it will come off pretty easily once you start playing with it. It is better to find some glue and glue it back properly.

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.

I see. But what will I do if the back of the rubber has damaged sponge? I heard that re-gluing damaged sponge will cause it to be uneven.
It depends how damaged it is. If it has tears in it or pieces out of the sponge then you are better to get a new rubber.
