Re: Best forehand rubber type for an older player
If he top spins (or loops) a lot from his forehand , he should use some sort of spinny inverted rubber.
You can start with an inexpensive rubber
If he never learned to loop, spinny inverted rubber is a big liaibility. The only other logical option is short pips with sponge
On the backhand the ONLY logical choice is some sort of blocking type long pips.
Not spinny inverted. Not anti spin. And most defintely NOT short pips
