Imagine owning your own set of high performance custom table tennis paddles. Mix and match the right ping pong rubber sheet with our selection of table tennis blades. Comfort Channels’ quick tips on selecting a good table tennis rubber A recent article from About.com listed the top ten classic rubbers for table tennis and discussed several characters of a good ping pong rubber: 1) Good feel: Coupled with strong speed and spin, a good table tennis rubber sheet will provide feel. The Butterfly brand was used by world class players in the 1970's and 1980's to generate powerful attacks while retaining good ball control (good feel). And today there are still many elite players, such as Germany's Timo Boll, who prefer classic qualities. The Joola rubbers can offer very good feel at some of the best prices for rubber sheets. 2) Spin: There are some table tennis rubbers that can be significantly spinnier but there is a bit of a tradeoff in the short game. A pips-in rubber is a spinny rubber. It is exceptional for looping, driving, serving, and, occasional spinny pushes. Once you get used to the high throw, it is also a very good blocking rubber too. Customers find that spinniness and bounciness makes a pips-in rubber a bit touchy for drop shots and passive pushes. The rubber also reacts to incoming spin more than a classic rubber, so it makes serve returns demanding. Spinny rubbers can lose their "max grippiness" after a few weeks. It remains pretty grippy, but loses its "razor edge". 3) Attacking: A good attacking rubber has more speed and spin than classic type rubbers. They are exceptionally durable, and not "bouncy". When speed glued it gets really fast. Like a classic rubber, it is solid across the board. This rubber seems to really like play close to the table. When speed glued, it is very capable away from the table, but really shines inside 5 feet. 4) Firmness: A rubber that just slightly firmer and a touch more powerful than a attacking rubber, but grips just as well. It is good for the back hand side. 5) Short pips rubber : Coming in a number of versions, the rubber can be used by hitters, blockers and even choppers. Comes in a number of versions, from wider, spinnier pips to more widely spaced smaller pips for more deception. Experts recommend for someone trying short pips for the first time to keep the sponge thin (1.5-1.8mm) and soft (35 degrees or less) for best control. 6) Fast: Fast rubbers are considered the "big gun" of modern table tennis for the last 10 years or so. Used by many top players and almost always with speed glue, fast rubbers can deliver just enough spin to bring the ball down on the table when power looping. Fast rubbers are good for power loopers and probably Butterfly will be the most popular fast rubber. Be careful, hard hitting and fast rubbers could negatively impact your friendly competition or even your friendship. Tables tennis rubbers talk will definitely label you a serious player. 7) Medium hard sponge: rubbers with a medium-hard sponge are comparable in speed and performance to the other types mentioned. This rubber could be used by players of all levels. 8) Sponge: The sponge and also the top sheet can make the rubber a little grippier than a classic. The sponge can be "small cell" meaning it feels soft, but is less springy even when glued, more like a hard sponge. That means it doesn't get too bouncy when speedglued. Very predictable at any speed of impact, you can do everything with the rubber. A racket without sponge is referred to as a hardbat. 9) Bounce: Some rubbers can be bouncy, but still are pretty easy to control. It is also durable. It is better for service return than service, and is only OK for pushes, but it feels so good hitting and looping that it seems a fair tradeoff. Warning: apply speed glue at your own risk - it gets VERY fast, VERY loud, and jumps up to "decently spinny". It never seems to get really spinny, but is plenty spinny enough to hit the table - even on really big strokes. It may make you want to really whack the ball. The ITTF introduced a rule that one side of the bat needed to be covered with red rubber, and the other side black because many players used different rubbers, like antispin on one side and a fast spinny rubber on the other. The rules purpose was to allow opponents the ability to anticipate what was on the incoming ball by the stroke played by the opponent. There are some players that always use one colour rubber on the forehand, and the other on the backhand, even if it is the identical brand and type. Does color of the rubber matter? Well the conventional wisdom is that yes colors do matter, but for some rubbers it’s much harder to tell. Chinese tacky rubbers are typically distinquishable by color; the red rubber is a little less tacky, and the black is a little softer and tackier. The tacky surface slows the ball down, so red rubber will be a little faster than black. Depending on your playing style, a red rubber will allow for speed in the game off the forehand with a red rubber. The raw rubber used to make the rubber topsheets, is naturally tacky and black. The red dye reduces some of its tacky characteristics and softness. For some rubbers, the different characteristics are quite obvious. For example the black ( Friendship) 729 Geospin tacky is tackier than the same rubber in red. However for most Japanese or Euro made rubbers, most of which are inherently non-tacky (but grippy), the differences not noticeable. |
