Hi coach, I wonder if it's worth to practice RPF style( w/ high spin rubber) and pips-out rubber on the usual forehand side. It's like you can either hit the ball with the pips-out rubber or the high spin rubber of your choice in your forehand.

Hi Fuenia,

I think you mean switching rubber on the forehand with the penhold style.  I think this is a good variation if you an manage it.  It will certainly confuse your opponents if you can make some long pimpled strokes with the forehand as well.

Also I have found this site selling very cheap TT equipments,http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Butterfly-SUPER-ZL-table-tennis-blade-Zhang-jike-FL-shake-handle-36541-1-pcs-Table-tennis/2031933365.html    I am really confused why their prices are almost 70-80% off compared to the normal price in USA and Japan,
