Hi,
I'm currently playing in the amateur league in a European country and boosting is regarded as illegal due to the rules.
But as far as I understand many players in Asia and even the top professional players are playing with boosted rubbers. Some rubbers are even not playable if not boosted like H3.
Why is boosting not made legal again because the health aspect of speed glue is not an argument anymore. Also, many players are already boosting their rubbers. If you want to play by the rules, you have currently a disadvantage because you can't play Chinese Rubbers.
On the other hand if it is illegal and planed to be so. Why is it not more penalized?
The current state just feels awkward and gives an unfair advantage for players who play by the rules. In my mind, if it's illegal then enforce it for every player to the same degree or just legalized it, so every player are on equal footing again.
