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.
