Poly ball equipment combination

Equipment

 I’ve been reading all kinds of articles and test reports regarding the upcoming new poly Ball. Compared with the celluloid ball, many showed more different details then just similar roundness, hardness, bouncing, etc., indicating that performance is not such as the ITTF likes to promote. Of course the athlete will adapt but what is to be expected from the rubber and blade manufacturers, will they come up with the miracle combination and make existing combinations obsolete in short time.

Hi Rene,

I don’t think there will be any need for a change in rubbers or blades.  The manufacturers will probably come out with new equipment to convince players they need to change but I don’t think it will be very different at all.

Yes, just read that.  Good to get some publicity.
