Return Boards
Discussion
John Wampler Asked 13 years ago
I recently saw an add for a table tennis return board. I cannot afford a robot at the moment and people aren't always available to feed me balls. Is a return board a worthwhile investment?

Hi John,
I have tried a return board once and i was surprise at its usefulness. It was good for hitting straight balls. If you put any sidespin on the ball it is difficult because the ball will spin off sideways.
I found it good to hit topspins and you could also get it going sideways so that you can do some side to side footwork.
