Different Ping Pong Paddles

The ping pong paddle, also known as a table tennis racket or bat, is the essential equipment used in the sport of table tennis. It typically consists of three main components: the blade, the rubber, and the sponge. Each of these parts contributes to the paddle's performance in terms of speed, spin, and control.

PRODUCT INTRODUCTION

Sponge-sticked rubber racket

There are two main types of sponge-sticked rubber rackets:

"Anti-loop" sponge rubber racket

This racket is a piece of rubber with a smoother surface (slightly astringent) pasted on a sponge with a loose structure and low elasticity. Its performance is basically the same as that of the sponge-sticked "long" rubber racket. The difference is that the "anti-loop" sponge rubber racket can add rotation, the ball runs slower and the arc is shorter. The ball suddenly falls after reaching the high point, which is more obvious when cutting loops. When blocking and attacking, the ball does not rush forward, and sinks quickly after landing on the table. This racket is mostly used by athletes who combine cutting and attacking. But some all-attack athletes also use this racket. (II) Sponge reverse rubber racket The rubber surface of this racket has greater viscosity and strong friction: In addition, the rubber particles are inward, the rebound force is small, and it can "eat" the ball. The sponge reverse rubber racket can actively create rotation changes (such as using serve and rubbing to make rotation changes; loop athletes pull true and false loops; defensive athletes slice and spin or no spin, etc.). But the hitting speed is not as fast as the sponge positive rubber racket, and it is easier to "eat" the opponent's spin ball when returning it. This racket is widely used by attacking players who mainly use rotation, players who mainly use cutting, and players who combine cutting and attacking. Attackers use harder sponges, while players who combine cutting and attacking use softer sponges.

Rubber racket

This racket has less elasticity, slower hitting speed, and is easier to control the ball. When receiving the opponent's spinning serve and rubbing the ball, the ball control is more stable. However, it is not easy to create strong rotation, and the speed and power are not too strong when attacking. Therefore, except for a few defensive athletes, attacking athletes rarely use this racket.
