Best equipment for offensive player.

pongsakwst · Jul 13, 2014

Hi there,

I would like to play table tennis again after quitted more than 10 years.
But equipment I know unable to find anymore, so please kindly suggest me best equipment for offensive play.

vvk1 · Jul 13, 2014

Depends on how good you where 10 years ago, and just how rusty your TT skills are now. Why not asking some players at a TT club to play with their bats, ideally, some one same level as you're now, in order to get a feel at what you like and what you don't like?

Well if you want to know what equipment is best for offensive style, may i suggest buying cheap set ups on Colestt to test out? Or just pre assembled bats and work your way up like i did.

Butt Stallion · Jul 14, 2014

for topspin players all wood blades, for allround players carbon, this is my personal advice. Rubbers is up to you, dont go with to soft rubbers, it should be something between medium soft and medium hard. Try some rubbers at youre club and you will see what kind of hardness suits you, tell us which rubbers you played and we will find something for you. Everything here is very subjective, so you have to find it out by yourself.

The bat I just made and posted 9 pics is from Coles. I should be low end of OFF range suitable for many offensive styles and cost less than a sheet of modern rubber.

what type rubbers did you use?tacky chinese or european/japanese?

no matter what... tenergy is best for someone who has attained good technqiue

aznalanx32 · Jul 14, 2014

The Tenergys are very good for attackers. It is a Japanese rubber.

I know tenergy is very good rubber but it depends on your

dont start with tenergy cos they are way too expensive. there are many other options like rakza 9 or 7.

tabletennis11.com · Jul 16, 2014

Rakza 7 would be a pretty good place to start, it has good spin and control and reasonable pace. Maybe look at a good control blade like a Stiga Clipper CR or something like that just to get good control with pace so you can get consistent again. Important even when playing offensively to get your touch back and of course adjust to the changes in ball and game rules etc. 10 years is a long time!

vvk1 · Jul 16, 2014

IMHO, Ragza 7 is too hard for someone who has not played for 10 years. Something like Xiom Vega Europe is much easier to get back in the game with.

mahomedy13 · Jul 16, 2014

then get the rakza 7 soft

TTnerd · Jul 17, 2014

Easy: DHS Long 3 or Stiga Rosewood + FH: Hurricane NEO 3 provincial or Tenergy 64 + BH: Tenergy 05 if you play long distance or Some medium rubber if not, for example Joola Explode Sensitive

marici22 · Jul 17, 2014

How about DHS Long 5?

I used to play with Japanese equipment, Panther bat MarkV and BlackPower rubber from Yasaka brand.

Would not recommend H3 to a person who hasn't been playing for 10 years, nor would I recommend it at all personally. Then I wouldn't recommend Tenergies too because their problem is that they cost a lot and if you still need to get the hang of it then you wouldn't get all you can get from those rubbers.

Léo tennis de table · Jul 18, 2014

I think the rubber DHS are very much like the H3 and TG3 with Tenergy is great

mahomedy13 · Jul 18, 2014

u used mark v before,so i advise going for mark v hps or a rakza 7.these are similar to mark v but faster.
