Just wondering what rubber is good and the blade. My friend says long pimple rubbers are illegal in tournaments but i dont really know. What rubber is good for attacking and defence and spin? And are there any good rubber in your store?

Hi Matthew,

Rubber is very much a matter of personal preference.

Long pimples are still OK to use.  You just need to make sure they are approved by the ITTF.  Click on the link for a list of approved rubbers.

For attacking use a faster reverse pimple rubber.  For defense use a slower rubber or even a long pimple rubber.

In our store we have a few rubbers that are suitable for attacking play.  Mark V is a great rubber for learning to attack with.  Once you have mastered that I would recommend you move onto Yasaka Pryde rubber.
