Alternate bat weight

Equipment

Thomas Kunzfeld Asked 8 years ago

Hi Alois,

I use a Stiga Allround Classic which weighs 75 g. Now I ordered a second one of the same model as alternate bat from a huge table tennis supplier. I asked them to send one around 75 g, so that the two bats feel similar. But they have sent one which weighs 95 g.

Would you advise to send it back and ask for a lighter one or is this exaggerated?

Greetings from Germany

Thomas

Hi Thomas,

That is a big weight difference.

I would contact them and see what they can do.

Tone is in Your Fingers

There's is an old saying about guitar playing - tone is in your fingers. And If you've ever seen a really good guitarist play an old guitar then you'll understand how true that saying is. I know we go on a lot about this topic but it is so true. Once you've got yourself a decent bat, it's no longer up to the equipment, it's up to YOU!
