Hi coach,
I am just a beginner, and i am planning to buy a racket, so what are the characteristics of a good racket?

Hi Sharlynne,
For beginners, it's important to have a bat that has good control so you can develop your strokes correctly and build up some consistency. You also need a good quality rubber that is grippy so you can generate spin. Table Tennis is a game of spin and you need to learn about it with a grippy rubber. There are a lot of good options.
We recommend the PingSkills Rook.

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!
