Equipment
hi sir alois... why defenders used a normal inverted rubber on there forehand and what mm sponge does have in a normal inverted rubber? thanks in advance...
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.
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!

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.
