Eillon Amancio Asked 8 years ago
Hi Alois and Jeff, I live in the Philippines. What's a good starter racket aside from rackets that are cheaper than your Pingskills Rook or rackets that are below the $40/₱800 price range? Pls. reply specifically because I'm looking forward to buying a cheap starter racket this Christmas.

Hi Eillon,
I don't have any recommendations but other readers may know what is good in the Phillipines.
Make sure you also watch the Choosing a Table Tennis Bat video.

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.

Don't buy cheap racket bcoz we cannot give garenty when they may brake or the rubber may loose grip.
buy a good racket such as GKI , PINGSKILLS touch/Rook , Stiga

Go for Pingskills Rook. As a beginner, you need to learn proper techniques, and spin is essential. Cheap rackets may have very substandard rubbers which can't produce much spin, and hence compromising your progress in table tennis.

Yes ...that's absolutely correct Beneze.
