I like to loop/topspin serves to my forehand and I just find the Rakza Z easier than any other rubber I have used, which is obviously due to the tacky top sheet , high throw and the slower speed. I would have tried the thinner 09C already if it wasn't so expensive and I don't know anyone with...

I have tried Rakza Z and it is the easiest rubber I have used to loop with, however with the 09C I just seem to give my opponents a more difficult ball to handle. I have tried Hurricane 3 in 37 & 39 but still find I play my best with the Rakza Z and 09C. I have tried the Rakza Z in 2.00mm and...

Hi there, I have been playing with Dignics 09C max on my FH for 6 months and although I really enjoy the rubber I would just like a little more control on my loops. I was thinking of going to Dignics 09C 1.9mm instead of the max or trying Glayzer 09C max. I would just like a slightly higher...

You are sanding the blade not the handle? Have a practice go on a cheap generic bat that you can buy at any sports shop!

Wrap some sandpaper/glasspaper around a piece of dowel or plastic pipe that's about 20mm diameter and carefully sand the sharp edges off until it they no longer annoy you. I do it to all my blades, just take your time and I generally wrap the rubbers so that you avoid getting sawdust on them.

Both my Rakza Z still hold the ball after over a year, way more than H3 and O9C

If everyone is doing it, it's hardly an advantage

Rakza Z is an easy transition

I use both H3 37 and Rakza Z on my backhand and both are very similar in control with the Rakza feeling a little softer with a higher spinier arc than the H3

Rakza Z is the obvious answer if you like Rakza 7

My friend just put Rising Dragon on both sides of his blade, but neither of us could come to grips with it and after a couple of outings with it he has put that bat away. Rakza Z is in my opinion way better in just about every respect, it just does everything pretty well with a heap of control.

I currently use Rakza Z and was wondering what are the differences using the RZEH

Rakza Z or Rakza 7 soft, both very easy to use on the BH

I play Table Tennis and Tennis and recently Pickleball. Pickleball will continue to grow because it's the easiest to play of all the racket sports. There is little to no spin involved and most people can get to a reasonable level in a short amount of time. Even playing top level players you can...

Experiment with different rubbers

In my experience the Yasaka and Butterfly rubbers I have are in fantastic condition considering their age and use. The same can't be said for the DHS and 729 rubbers I have which are 'blotchy' and look terrible, however they still seem to work OK, as I can't pick pick any change in performance.

Did you push your fingers into the surface when you were gluing?

It looks like something has been pushing on the rubber for some time, maybe in a case against a second bat? I would leave it for a couple of days and see if it returns to the original shape.

A good way to practice is to find a partner who is willing to do the same. You have two serves each and play the point out as if you were in a match, but you don't keep score, which relieves the pressure. You can ask your partner to serve all the serves to your BH if that's what you want to...

I find the type of glue used can have an effect on the speed and feel of the rubber. I ordered a new bat with new rubbers assembled, the same bat and rubbers as I have been using and I found the feel and speed to be quite different.
