Switch to a custom-made bat

Adam Hossain Asked 7 years ago

I have only just finished my first table tennis racket a Palio Expert 2 (recommended by Expert Table Tennis) and now I'm thinking of getting a Pingskills Rook. But I'm not sure if I should go to a custom racket now that I've finished 1 premade. Should I go for a custom bat if yes I MAY get a Pingskills touch. Unless I don't like it. (My friend has it and my coach has a custom made bat of her own). So maybe I'll try each of theirs see who's I prefers.

Hi Adam,

I think you are probably ready to move to a custom racket.  Just make sure you get something that isn't too fast to start with.  Hitting with a few different bats if you have the opportunity, is a good idea to get the feel of what you like.
