Why shouldn't the ball have a seam?
Alois Rosario Answered 13 years ago
Hi Varun,
They are lower in quality and will not bounce as consistently. They are often a softer ball using less material to form the ball.

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.

Is the seam useful for us?
No, it just makes for an uneven bounce which is not what we are looking for.
