In another thread gwenved made a brilliant suggestion that, since equipment doesn't matter, everyone in the world could standardize on one blade and a choice of two rubbers. Like they do in sandpaper, or hardbat, or big ball. I love the idea, and it started me thinking about how it could work. It can't be a $150 butterfly bat or that would price out most of the world. Same with rubbers, no dignics or national blue sponge h3. And it wouldn't be right to eliminate defense, or para, or any whole classes of players.
So if ITTF put you in charge of choosing the only one blade and two rubbers allowed in the entire world, what would you choose?
