Hi Coach, I was wondering if you could tell me the types of handles and their characteristics? E.g., the difference between a flared and a straight handle, and things like that?

Thanks, Andrew

Hi Andrew,

There are straight, flared and anatomic handles.  They are just for personal comfort.  Some people feel like one is better for attacking and one for defending.  I don't feel that is the case.

Choosing a Table Tennis Bat

Make sure you buy a table tennis bat that is suitable for your level and allows you to develop your technique. For your first bat we recommend the PingSkills Rook, and when you upgrade to a custom bat we recommend the PingSkills Touch with Mark V or Rakza 7.
