Equipment
I was watching the Kuwait open 2012 table tennis finals in the stadium yesterday and I got up close to Ryu and saw that his blade was not a circle all around,but had like a square looking blade,I am a penholder too so here is my question : Is it better to use a regular circle blade,or use a blade like Ryu's as i am about to make my own racket. Thank you,
Moataz

          Hi Moataz,
Some penholders play with a more rectangular blade. This is especially so for the Japanese and Korean penholders.
It is a preference. If you like the style of the Koreans and Japanese then copy them and use the rectangular blade. If you like the chinese penhold style then use a round 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.
