Hello sir,

With the introduction of the plastic ball, what difference would it make while playing against a phantom? Should the waiting time be more or less as compared to the old ball?

Hi Uditi,

It may be a little slower to come through after bouncing but it is very marginal.

It is something that you will get used to in a very short amount of time.

Alois,

Do you think that it is OK to use celluloid ones for robot and multi-ball and plastic ones for match play and regular practice?

Hi Ilia,

I think once the plastic balls become more affordable then it is best to use plastic for both.  Thill then, I think it is OK to use Celluloid for the robot and Plastic for single ball practice and matches.

Everyone can tell which ball is plastic by touch as plastic balls seems heavy while playing than celluloid balls.

For Ball If you used them all In that case you should try Stag 3* Peter Karlsson ball.

But I personally use Xushaofa and they are the best.
