Hi Alois,

This is Atoms again... How can I improve the grip of my racket?

Hi Atoms,

If the rubber is slippery then try just wiping it down with a damp sponge.  If this doesn't improve the grip then it is time to get a new rubber.

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.

Then don't try to do too much with it.  You won't be able to improve the grip, just wipe it down with a damp sponge.

You could also use protection sheets - I always use them on my bats and every time I play is like I'm playing with a brand new rubber ;)
