Hard or soft wood

Equipment

Jethro Jet Asked 11 years ago

Hey pingskills!

What is a better wood when it comes to good control and speed? Is it hard wood or soft wood? Thanks in advance! :)

Hi Jethro,

For more control I find softer wood better. For more speed the harder wood is often better. However, you can get a faster rubber on a softer blame and still get a lot of speed.

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.
