Equipment
I was wondering where i could find a Penhold Racket with rubber on both sides. If not could i just glue another rubber on the back?
Hi Brant,
You can just buy any penhold racket and put some rubber on the reverse side. This is a fairly simple process. Youjust need to decide whether you are after a Chinese penhold blade or Japanese style blade.
You can get the penhold bats from most online shops.
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.

Chinese penhold bats look similar to shahand but with a smaller handle and are generally meant to be used from both sides,
Jap/korean penhold bats have a cork handdle that sticks out and a rectangular head. these raquect do not use reverse penhold banhands and enfacise on speed and attacking with forehand.
Chinese penhold is more modern and has more promise but a good korean penhold can destroy many people if he has good footwork.
