Hi Alois,

why are defensive blades generally larger than the average?

Thank you

Hi Thomas,

It gives the defender more area to get the ball onto which can be useful especially when the ball is coming fast at you.  Also further away from the table you don't need to wield the bat around so fast.

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.
