Edge tape
Equipment
Abhiram Reddy Asked 12 years ago
Sometimes i hit the table and end up damaging the racket ply.I have seen edge tapes applied only to the sponge and ply of the racket in pre-mades.But i have covered up the side of the topsheet (ensuring that the playing surface is free from any tape) as well with a cloth tape on my custom bat. Is it Legal to do so.Will it affect my game in any way say like the rubber slowing down or not bouncing enough or anything like that?

Hi Abriham,
You are allowed to do this. Before a match though the umpire may peel the edge tape back to check the sponge and rubber under the tape but they will stick it back down again.
It won't effect your rubber at all.

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!
