Sponge and Rubber Thickness
Equipment
Sharlynne Go Asked 13 years ago
Hi,
I am very new to table tennis. I visited a website that sells equipments.
It is clearly written that sponge thickness is 2.0, but why are there 1.5... rubbers?
Aren't sponges part of rubbers?

Hi Sharlynne,
THere are different options for the thicknesses of the sponge. The thicker the sponge the faster and more spin you will get with it. Manufacturers juts offer them in different thicknesses for players that want to get different effects with the rubber.
It just adds to the confusion.

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!
