Question
Hi, I am a table tennis player who plays alot with friends.  I am pretty serious about table tennis though. I have researched about buying a blade and rubber, but that is too espensive and too professional.  i read that you recomend Stiga rackets. But in my view, there are liek 2 kinds of rackets.
A hard one, with very thin rubber and a spongey 1 with thicker rubber.
What are the advantages or disadvantages of these two types?

Answer
Hi Henry,

As for the thick rackets, it's perfect in spinning and screwing, but it's a bit heavy. However, most players use it.

As for the thin rackets, it's perfect in hitting strongly, but sometimes when you're playing you lose control of the ball so it repels really strongly.

I recommend the "thick-rubber" rackets.

Have a great day.

Yours Sincerely,
Macarious Abadeer
