Hi I've been curious recently about the 85% wood rule when making table tennis bats.
Why is this in place and has there been anyone campaigning to try to allow bats made from more materials such as graphite?
All other racket sports have long since moved from wood to metal to carbon fibre or other such material why not table tennis?
Hi Phil,
I haven't thought about this. I don't think there is much of a push to do this.
I wonder what others think about the idea.
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.
