Advantage of tacky rubbers
Equipment
Dhruv Maniar Asked 11 years ago
I was wondering what is the advantage of tacky rubbers ober non tacky ones?Will it help to return the ball with a loop from a lower height than usual non tacky ones?Does the ball spend more time on the bat in tacky ones? What kind of sponge should accompany a tacky rubber for mad spin?thanks.

Hi Dhruv,
It is just a matter of preference. You can do most of the things with non sticky rubber as with sticky rubber.
Usually the tacky rubbers have harder sponges. Again it is a matter of what you like. I quite like a tacky surface with a softer sponge.

Tone is in Your Fingers
There's is an old saying about guitar playing - tone is in your fingers. And If you've ever seen a really good guitarist play an old guitar then you'll understand how true that saying is. I know we go on a lot about this topic but it is so true. Once you've got yourself a decent bat, it's no longer up to the equipment, it's up to YOU!

Are tacky rubbers recommended fr beginners
They are OK for beginners. The more important thing is the speed of the rubber.
