Hey folks.
I've recently switched my forehand rubber to Hurricane 8 mid-hard which is a tacky rubber. I've played with it for about a month. But I am not feeling that I have the same confidence with this tacky rubber as I had with my non-tacky rubber. I think that I am not able to get the strokes right.
When I loop the ball, it rises too high and goes out of the table. When I loop with a bit less power, it sinks into the net.
When I hit a flat smash, the ball goes straight and outside the table. It does fall straight onto the table like it used to be with my non-tacky rubber.
I love the lifting capabilities of tacky rubbers so I intend to use it and power is no issue. I'm pretty strong you see .
I would love to hear your advice on using tacky rubbers and changing strokes accordingly. Thanks
