How to Choose a Ping Pong Racket

Finding the perfect racket for your current level can be daunting, but a few guidelines can make it much easier.

Speed, Spin, and Control

If you are a beginner, it is difficult to control incoming spin and return the ball on the table consistently, so rackets with low speed and spin are best at this stage to nullify the incoming spin and learn to rally.

If you are getting coaching, you can jump right to intermediate rackets with more speed and spin since the coach can teach you quickly how to handle it. Intermediate players are more comfortable receiving spin, and generating it on attack strokes.

As you progress to competition rackets, make sure you are already very comfortable with a variety of strokes and spins.

The products I ordered were exactly as I expected and were sent quickly. The materials I ordered were to replace the rubber on my paddle for the first time. I was very pleased with the result and feel I now have more control of my shots.I will definitely be ordering more products in the future from Smash Table Tennis.

Dealing with Mash Table Tennis was a great experience. Finding what I needed online was a breeze, reasonable cost for the product and delivery was fast. Would deal with them again without hesitation.

I think the inventory here is reasonably priced and Arthur is kind and prompt in responding to any queries you may have. He made a few accommodations to make sure I would receive my racket on time. I very strongly recommend people to have a look here for any of their Table tennis related needs.
