Table tennis equipment is very important because it gives you the feeling and the rotation on the ball.

Xu Xin re-glue his rubber every 4 days. Regluing is important for professional players because it increases the spin and speed of the rubbers. We don’t need to do that. We only need to make a perfect and correct gluing job.

How often do you re-glue your rubber, and how often do you change your rubber

And I change my rubbers every 7 to 10 days depending whether I’m just training or playing the tournaments

When I assemble my rubbers, it’s important to aligned straight against the handle

then I brush the rubber with a roller, to avoid the bubble and to make sure it sticks.

Xu Xin is sponsored by a table tennis brand. So he can change his rubbers every 7 to 10 days. As a regular table tennis player, you should change rubber every 6 months to 1 year of playing.

When Xu Xin puts the rubbers on the blade, he always presses the rubber from the bottom to the top to avoid the bubble.

Top Chinese players prefer using a thick and strong glue. They always use the Nittaku Finezip glue (check price 1/ check price 2). Because this glue is rather strong, and they provide a thick glue layer.

Look at the glue layer. The glue is very important, because if you use a weak glue, then you will lose the spin during your shot.

If you don’t glue correctly, then your shot is not consistent. You don’t trust your equipment. So gluing is very important. If you glue it wrong, then you should remove, and glue it again, and again until it is perfect.

Today, let’s learn from He Zhuojia (何卓佳), Chinese national table tennis player. She will teach you the right way to cut and glue the rubber. This will help you have a nice and perfect setup in table tennis.
