Here is what you will learn in this table tennis boosting guide:

What is table tennis boosting?

Boosting adds tremendous spin and speed to your table tennis paddle.You will be surprised that many if not all top players in the world boost; even locally, based on our own research many local players do boost. When players boost they definitely have an advantage over players that do not, spin, speed, and power are much better with a boosted paddle. If you are a beginner boosting is not yet for you.

How to boost (Step by Step)?

1- Apply one layer of the booster, triple the size of a US quarter dollar on each rubber.
2- Let the booster get absorbed by the rubber, therefore, leave the rubbers intact for 24 hours.
3- Apply another layer of the booster, triple the size of a US quarter dollar on each rubber once again.
4- Leave the rubber intact for another 24 hours.
5- Join the rubbers to the blade using water-based glue.
6- Start practicing and feel the difference. The booster lasts between 6 to 8 weeks.
“Please note that these steps apply to new rubbers; to apply booster on rubbers that have already been glued to a blade, please follow the steps below under the section”How to boost a rubber that already been glued to a blade”.

Which booster do we recommend?

We have tested many if not all boosters in the market, we were not content with the results of any of them so we decided to make our own booster; after 2 years of testing we finally came up with what we believe to be the best booster in the market, Boom Pong. Speed, spin, power, consistency, and VOC free are the main factors that define a good booster, Boom Pong meets all of it.

Boom Pong product details:

• VOC Free
• 100 ML

What is the difference between Boom Pong and the other boosters in the market?

1- You can rely on Boom Pong for speed, spin, and power that will last you between 6 to 8 weeks, many other boosters barely add speed and spin to your paddle, you may not even feel any difference.
2- Boom Pong will give you same results every time you boost, other boosters make your paddle feel different every time you boost; which could result in an inconstancy in your game.

For how long does the table tennis booster last for?

This booster will last for 6 to 8 weeks.

How to boost a rubber that already been glued to a blade?

1- Disjoin the rubbers from the blade
2- Gently rub the glue to detach it from the rubber
3- Follow the steps in section “how to boost” above

Speed Glue Vs. Booster?

The birth of table tennis boosting was a result of the speed glue ban. Here are the reasons why boosting is better than speed glue:
1- Boosters are VOC free, speed glue can be really harmful to players and to the environment (main reasons for the ban).
2- Boosters are applied once every 6 to 8 weeks, speed glue had to be applied every time before practice.
3- Boosters do not shorten the life of the rubbers, speed glue did.

Should you apply the same of amount of booster on both rubbers?

Yes, unless you are looking for more control let’s say on your backhand, then you might want to consider applying one layer of the booster instead of two as described in the first section of this tutorial.

Does the booster work on any type of rubbers?

Whether it is hard or soft rubbers we recommend applying booster on inverted rubbers.
