Setup for begginer

Spinlord 2709 · Apr 21, 2019

Hi guys,

My brother decided to start playing table tennis too. I am thinking of what setup could I buy him. He just knows the basics, flat hits and a lil bit backspin and blocks.

Was thinking something like primorac with mark V's. What's your opinion?

Sounds good
Or you could use:
Donic Apple green allplay
Stiga all round classic
Yasaka Sweden extra

You could always obsessive overanalyze everything for 23 hrs a day 7days a week for months on end and settle on the first ten bats suggested.

Get a middle of the road (in terms of speed and spin) high on control and go at it a year or two, then re-assess. Difficult to go wrong that way, but it isn't the only way. Millions of possible suitable combos.

A fan favorite for students here is Sweden Extra with Vega Euro.

Xiom all around S with vega intro 2.0mm both sides. You can also choose Stiga Azalea All with Calibra Spin 2.0mm both sides.

Neottec Magic Control for 19€

I would go with classic rubbers like Donic Vario, Stiga Mendo, Yasaka Mark V or Tibhar Rapid. Your brother can use this setup for at least a year without the need to change the rubbers. With something like Vega Intro, he might have to change the rubber after 3-6 months. If you want to go the tensor route, Gewo Neoflexx 45 or 48 might be a decent choice. (Harder rubbers traditionally on FH, softer on BH)

This should help him, if he is 18 or older.

A lot of good info here. Read the lengthy Intro, 5-10 minutes, well worth your time. Then you can come back here and make a better decision.

Xiom allround s is pretty gd for beginner. Lots of feel n gd enough speed for beginner. Also there is lots of dwell time

Chewy · Apr 23, 2019

An all-round wooden blade.
Xiom Vega Intro, Nittaku Factive, TSP Ventus basic are some good rubbers for beginners.

I personally feel like an allround wood blade with cheap chinese rubber like 729 fx is great for beginners. Excellent control, easy to block and push and it will force your brother to learn proper technique in his topspin strokes

Andre74 · Apr 24, 2019

In a similar situation to yours, I eventually got a stiga all round with 729 FX 1.5mm.
It is helping me hugely with leaning how to do correct strokes as it has a lot of control and no helping power. It’s fast enough for me if I hit hard and well but it has no trampoline effect. I hated trampoline effect when I tried faster rackets, although now that I have developed a better understanding of stroke and racket angle etc.. I am tempted to move onto slightly faster rubbers. I’m not loving the stiga handle though, a bit too rounded and smooth. But the setup I got was cheap enough for me not to worry about it. Statistically, the mark V is the most recommended rubber for people who start learning, I almost got that one but the price and a number of people passionately against it stopped me

DukeGaGa · Apr 24, 2019

Stiga all round classic is a pretty good choice, and after some skill development he could switch to Stiga Offensive Classic if he starts to want more speed.

Myself and two others began with Yasaka Sweden Extra or Butterfly Primorac with DHS Hurrricane 3 Neo. We all agree this was the perfect setup to find our bearings. And very cheap, especially Yasaka. We all used these setups to learn basic looping FH/BH strokes, pushing, spinny serves etc.
