Hi , Coaches , 

Can you say when purchasing new rubbers which way do you go as a moderate newbie i look at the different thicknesses & a" MIST " arises, is the choices too much or do they all have a purpose?

regards Phil.

Hi Phil,

The thicker the sponge the more spin and speed you will be able to generate.

I would go for a slyer type of rubber and go for a 2mm thickness.  We put 2mm Mark V on our rackets for players similar to you.
