Hi guys.......anyone train with a return board before? I mean the bounce, speed and what is the board material made of. Does it have a piece if TT rubber sticking on the board, or can I use the same material as the TT table to use as a Return board? Just wondering?

Wonder if we can DIY ourselves, 729FX do you know of anyone whom would like to dispose of an old TT table. We could use the material and place 6 pieces of rubber together. What do you think. Hmmmm I may know someone whom might not have any use of a TT table. Well wish me luck in findind one it will be a good practice partner if no one is available to play. Sometimes the itch to hit some balls may be unbearable.

Well, Hurricane, good luck in your return board project. Will collated some old rubbers from now on for your project. I used to give away old rubbers to school-going children who cannot afford to change their rubbers and was still playing with worn-out rubbers.

Cheers.
