Best flooring

My question is what type of floor is suited for table tennis?

Hi Joseph,
Something that isn't too hard on the legs is best and also something that has grip.
Wooden flooring is probably the most common flooring used. Try to avoid concrete floors as this is really hard on the feet and legs.
I like the rubberised flooring. We have just got some in the PingSkills shed. It is quite expensive to lay however but it provides a soft surface but also great grip so you can move easily.

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.

For the benefit of legs and feet in my experience it is advisable to choose the right shoes for different floors. On concrete I prefer handball shoes because they have better cushioning than table tennis shoes.
