What side of the bat do you use for what?

Hi,

I was just wondering if there was a reason why the table tennis bats have different colours on each side.

Does it mean one side is grippier?

Does it mean you use one side for the backhand and the other for the forehand?

Thank you in advance,

Hi Aishmiken,

The colour of the rubber doesn't make any difference to its performance.  Most pre made rackets have the same rubber on both sides just the colours are different.

Choose your favourite colour for each side.

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.
