Equipment
Hi PingSkills
After practice with the multi-ball, I should pick up the balls bend down everytime I pick it. It makes my back hurts and makes me feel tired.
What tools for pick that lots of balls? Is there any alternative tools?
Hi Frendy,
Yes there are a few options. I use one that was supplied by http://www.mypingpongbuddy.com.
The other option that I use is a home made one out of PVC pipe with fishing line spaced at the bottom to allow the balls to squeeze in and then not fall out again.
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!

Hello Alois,
Thanks for the link to the "Multi-Ball Picker upper. For $35us dollar's you can't beat that. The Picker upper cost less than most bats/ paddle's/ racket's. I'll order one today!!!

We have these buckets in our club which you can press down on balls so that they squeeze in but don't fall out. It's very handy I think, because you only exert force downwards. With nets and such, there's always an upward or forward motion which can strain the back. Couldn't find online examples though.

I use a Kiwi Ball Picker from New Zealand, which sounds similar to the one Dieter mentions.
