Rubber speed control

Equipment

Hey!

So recently I got to try two different rubbers, which are both marked faster than my current one. I really liked both of them, and I didn't feel like they were hard to control or too fast. Some of my fellow team players said that it was too fast for me, but I'm quite sure they were judging from the numbers for speed on the package. 

Should I buy rubbers for my own preference, or listen to the other players?

Hi Lukas,

Always go on what feels right for you.  I think it is important though to not get anything too fast.  This leads to lack of control and often your strokes being compromised.

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!
