Hi Alois, I have a couple of questions:

Is it necessary to have a good bat and good rubbers to generate spin? & Could you tell me please which brand u think is better: Cornilleau or Joola

Thanks Alois for all your answers

Hi Arturo,

Yes it is very important to have good rubber to be able to generate spin.  However you don't have to have the best rubbers.  Just something with a bit of grip on the surface and a decent sponge under it.

Both Cornilleau and Joola are good brands.  It just depends on what you get from their range.  They both have a range of equipment from beginner to advanced.

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!

Ok thanks. 

And other question: Does Jan Ove Waldner still playing table tennis as a professional?

PD: I think he's the best

Hi Arturo,

I don't think he is playing now.
