Chinese topsheet on European sponge touch
Equipment
Romeo Chua Asked 9 years ago
I used to play with Joola Xplode on a Stiga WRB bat, and my opponents often complained that my balls are too spinny. After I switched to the Hurricane 3-50 (Hurricane topsheet with TinArc sponge), my touch suddenly disappeared. My service always had only a little spin, and my pushes weren't as spinny as before. Is this normal? Or should I just practice until I get the feel back?

Hi Romeo,
I don't know the specifics of the rubbers but it may be a case of allowing yourself more time to adjust to the new rubber.

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.

thanks! are there ways to get one's touch back?
Hi Romeo,
Do a lot of controlled hitting and also I find pushing helps with this as well.
