Hi Alex,

The choppers use inverted rubber on the forehand so they can generate their own spin and also attack if they get the opportunity.  They would use a 2mm sponge or if you are beginning perhaps a thinner sponge to get more control on your chop.

I have 1,8 mm rubber on defensive blade, works just fine. Usually defenders take tacky rubbers to generate more spin.

there are also special inverted rubbers designed for FH chopping.  Xiom Yanus DF, Butterfly Tackiness Chop and TSP Trip Spin Chop being three examples.
