Well I know that the pingskills touch is a bat with changable rubbers, but is it possible to change the rubbers on a pongskills rook? and by the way what type of bat is the rook? is it off,def or all? and what type of rubber is on it? thanks in advance:)

Hi Samuel,

You will be able to change the rubber on the Rook but not as easily as with the Touch.

The blade of the Rook is between an Allround and Defensive speed to give you really good coontrol.

Choosing a Table Tennis Bat

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.

The glue used to stick the rubbers on is a bit stronger than what is used for a custom bat. This means it is a little bit harder to remove the rubbers. It certainly can be done, but just requires a bit more care and effort. 

The bat uses ITTF approved Lion 5 2mm rubbers on both sides. The overall ratings of the bat are 7 for speed, 9 for control and 9 for spin. As always though ratings are hard to compare between products. 

We are very happy with the PingSkills Rookands think it is a great bat for learning how to play Table Tennis.
