How to Select the Table Tennis Racket

January 12, 2015 JammykCric

Table Tennis is also known as Ping Pong, it is a sport played by two or four people. Table tennis is administered by International Table Tennis Federation (ITTF). Players use a wooden racket covered with rubber on it to hit the ball on a hard flat surface table. The racket is also referred as bat or paddle. The wooden portion of the racket is called as blade. Table Tennis Racket is made of various kind of wood with different surfaces. Player select the racket with a variety of rubber on its blade for different spin and control.

Table Tennis is a very popular game these days and its popularity creates more confusion to select its equipment. There are several features to keep in mind while selecting a table tennis racket. The primary components of the racket are Blade, Blade handle and Paddle rubber.

Before evaluating the racket one should identify the level of the game as he/ she is a beginner, professional or a veteran player. A beginner is the one who wants to play table tennis for fun. Indeed table tennis is an exciting and thrilling game. So the beginner needs a basic racket to start with.

A professional player is the one who plays in a competitive manner. The player needs a racket according to the level of the game. Professional player need a racket with power, control, accuracy and spin on the ball.

As people get physically and mentally relaxed by playing table tennis, so some people use to continue playing it after their retirement age also. Such veteran players need a bat with less power and less stroke. So they need a racket according to that requirement.

Now we will focus on the main aspects one should take care while selecting a racket:

Blade: The blade of the racket plays an important role in the game, the surface of the blade hit the ball while playing. The blade is made of wood with the coating of rubber. The coating of the rubber makes no divergence to the beginner but it creates a massive difference for a professional player. The weight of the blade is an important feature of the racket. It varies to between 70 -100 grams. The spin of the blade depends on the weight of the blade, if the blade is light weighted then it is appropriate for a fast game which is preferable by the beginners. The professional players need force and energy so they prefer a heavy weight blade.

Blade Handle: The handle of the racket is the part which is in the hand of the player. Player should be comfortable to hold the racket. There are various kind of grips available in the market but the most commonly used are shakehand grip and the penhold grip. If the player holds the racket as he is shaking hand with someone then the player should go with shakehand racket and if the player holds the racket as he is holding a pen then the player should go with penhold racket. There are four patterns of blade handle flared, straight, anatomical and conical. Many players believe that flared handles are easy to hold. Straight handles are known for their defensive game and backhand strokes. Anatomical handle is like as flared handle but has a segment in the middle that better fits in the hand of the player. Conical handles are preferable by the large hand s players.

Paddle Rubber: The rubber of the blade is responsible for the feel and response of the ball. The rubber of the paddle maintains the speed and control of the racket. A thin rubber is appropriate for the players who need control of the ball and the player who prefer the speed need a thick rubber coating.

These are basic characters one should determine while selecting a table tennis racket. The kind of racket that a player select depends on his comfort and the level of the game.

It is important to choose the right table tennis blades for your playing style. Your style of play will help to determine which blade that feels good in your hand and you can be confident that it will be right for you. Every player plays differently and has different ability on either section. There are several things to be considered when choosing your table tennis blade:

1) Weight of the blade

2) Stiffness of the blade

3) Thickness of the blade

4) Speed of the blade

5) Balance of the blade

6) No of layers/ply

7) Combination with Rubber

8) Handle Type of the blade

9) Price

10) Conclusion

1) Weight of the blade:

It can be divided into two parts:

A) Lighter

B) Heavier

A) Lighter table tennis blades will give you more swing and slower spin and speed. It is suitable for all-round or defensive playing styles.

B) Heavier table tennis blades will generate more power and gives maximum ball speed. In physics terms, momentum is equal to mass multiplied by velocity, So you should look for heavier blade that produce a swing comfortably and higher speed to spin ratio for topspin attacking shots. It tends to be faster and suitable for offensive attacking players.

2) Stiffness: It is important to consider the stiffness of the blades. The stiffness of the blade refers the amount of elasticity or flex the blade has.

A stiffer table tennis blade will usually be faster and provides you more speed and quick balance reaction.
A flex table tennis blades are provides you more control.

3) Thickness of the Blade: Thickness is generally defined into three parts-

a) Thinner b) Thicker c) Thickest

Thinner blades are less than 6mm and suitable for looping.
Thicker blades are 6 – 7mm and used for driving.
Thickest blades are 7mm or more and used for blocking.

Thickest blades being used for blocking is that any attempt to block the hard loops initiate at the higher levels of play requires the face of the blade to be as closed as possible.

4) Speed of the Blade:

It is important to choose the right speed of your blade to suit your playing style.

It can be classified into two parts:

a) Faster Blades

b) Slower Blades

The faster blades provide you more speed and control on ball. It is suitable for aggressive players.

The slower blades provide you amount of time of the ball is in contact with the rubber and giving the more spin on the ball. Players who use more spin also tend to prefer slower blades. It is suitable for more defensive players.

5) Balance of the Blade:

The balance of a blade mention to the center of gravity of your table tennis blade is closer to the handle or top of the racket head. It can be classified into two parts:

a) Head Light b) Head Heavy

Head heavy blades produce the more power on shots. It is suitable for topspin or counter attack players.

Head light blades produce the quickest racket acceleration.

6) No of layers/ply of the Blade:

The two things are important of the layers of your table tennis blade.

a) First thing is the number of layers

b) Second is what type of materials is used for the layers of blade.

The number of wood layers of a blade generally ranges from 1 to 7.
5 ply blades are the most common in the all-round range.
5 plies of blade are used for looping while 7 plies of blade are used for blocking and driving.
At least 85% of the blade thickness must be natural wood. The other 15% of the blade can comprise layers made of such materials such as carbon fiber, glass fiber, titanium or aralyte.
Carbon fiber is used to make the blade harder and faster, as well as facilitate the blade to have a better sweet spot.

7) Combination with Rubber: The selection of table tennis rubber is important to match your blade and suits the play of your style. There are 3 main differences you need to be aware of-

a) Thickness of the sponge b) Pimples Out c) Pimples In

Table tennis rubber is available in different thickness of the sponge. A 2.0mm or 2.5 mm sponge will be more suitable for an attacking and offensive style of play, while a 1.0mm or 1.5mm sponge will suit more defensive players.

Pimples- out Rubber have facing outwards the playing area which means that the smooth side of the rubber is attached to the sponge.

Pimples -In rubber type, players get more effective hitting area so table tennis balls observed more area of contact. It is generally designed for advanced players who want to play a particular type of play. The good combination of rubber gives you good control and can help to develop your strokes.

8) Handle Type of the Blade: The choice of handle type is a personal decision. The size and shape of the handle that feels best in your hand is what you should use. There are three main types of handle:

a) Flared b) Straight c) Anatomic

Flared handle is also called concave handle are the most popular. They allow a loose grip with less risk of the blade slipping out of the hand during play than the straight handle.

Straight handle are the second most popular type of grip with layers of all styles and more admired with defensive type players.

9) Price: You are looking for a table tennis blade that suits the way you play and the cost you are willing to pay for. Expensive blade is not surely better but the cheaper blade may have just the right selection of characteristics that suit you best. If price is important factor to you select a blade before looking at prices.
