That is a pretty good way of putting it!Yes you are doing it consiously thats really good for you I see lots of players who fail to understand that proper equipment magnifies your potential in an "analogical manner" (I believe one cannot accurately measure it but I will give it a try below) and they change equipment after some devastating losses instead of focusing on quality training
So if a player with poor or ineffective technique lets say produces (hypothetically speaking) 1000rpm in his topspin and a tenergy rubber gives 20 % boost his topspin will have 1200 rpm
A player with perfect technique will produce double or even triple that amount lets say 2500 rpm (hypothetically speaking again) with a tenergy he will produce 3000 rpm
Quite devastating difference.
Now a good player with a 5 % boost (a cheap crappy rubber compared to the tenergy) will still be better in his topspin, the difference will be that with the 5 % rubber the good player will probably need not one but two topspins to penetrate another's player defense and finish the point, so he will still be better no matter the equipment but it will be harder for him to finish off a point.
peace!
