About table tennis rackets

(Added later: You can tap the surface of the board with your hand. The crisper the sound, the harder and better the elasticity of the board, and vice versa. Knock with one hand, and don’t knock with the other hand. When you are free, hold the handle of the racket at the same time to see if it vibrates when you hit it. You can also pinch the board or the layers of wood on the side to see if it is soft or hard. Note that it is good to have a crisp sound when you hit it. , but it doesn’t feel good if it is very thin. It should be crisp and stable, giving people a strong feeling.)

According to what you said, it depends on the sound of the table tennis racket blade or the sound. I dare not say how to judge the performance of a table tennis blade by tapping the ball board, for fear that it may not be accurate enough. But you can buy products from big brands, and their quality is good.

The following is information on how to choose a blade and rubber for your reference. You can choose according to your playing style, it's quite long. . .

Modern table tennis emphasizes speed, accuracy, ferocity, change and rotation. Although the size or strength of these factors mainly depends on the level of technology, it is also closely related to the tools. The development history of table tennis proves that the improvement of rackets directly promotes the change and development of technology. Simply put, a racket is composed of the following three parts:

1. Wooden racket: The quality of the racket will vary in softness and hardness due to different wood types. The slightly harder wood is suitable for fast attack golfers, while the slightly softer wood is suitable for loop and chip players.

2. Rubber: There are two types: front sticker and reverse sticker (long rubber is a type of front sticker).

3. Sponge: There are thickness, softness and hardness. Thick sponges will be faster than thin sponges. Since everyone's hand feel is different, when choosing the softness and hardness of the sponge, it depends on personal feeling. Generally speaking, there are fewer users of sponges that are too hard, and young golfers are more suitable to use slightly softer sponges, because this can improve the feeling on the hand when hitting the ball.

When choosing a table tennis racket, everyone needs to decide which racket is suitable for them based on their own playing style characteristics. What is especially important is the choice of rubber. The following is a brief introduction to five different performance rubbers. Features:

Positive rubber - short-grained rubber, characterized by good elasticity, fast speed, stable hitting, and difficult to spin. It is suitable for fast attacks close to the table, especially left-push and right-attack methods. It is a straight board. The rubber most commonly used by fast break players. If you feel that your wrists are flexible enough but your arms and waist are not strong enough, you might as well try a rubber racket that wins with speed.

Reverse glue - The reverse glue itself has a large viscosity, strong friction, and is easy to produce rotation, which better balances the requirements of speed and rotation. Therefore, there are many users of arc type or arc combined with fast break style. At the same time, because the ball is stable and easy to control, it is also the first choice for beginners and the most popular and practical rubber nowadays.

Raw rubber - Raw rubber is rubber with upward particles and a diameter greater than its height. Its characteristics are that the ball sinks and the ball spins weakly. Because raw rubber has the effect of reducing rotation, it is especially easy to control the ball. For players with both sides of the horizontal stroke, if they use reverse rubber for the forehand (looping) and raw rubber for the backhand (quick dial and short swing), they can achieve different effects on the ball and cause discomfort to the opponent.

Long rubber - This is a kind of rubber with fine and long particles, covering a thin sponge. This kind of rubber can cause the ball to rotate abnormally, such as using long rubber to rub the opponent's backspin ball. , the ball flies back with topspin; when you block the opponent's topspin ball, the ball flies back with downspin; when you cut the opponent's looping ball, the return ball will spin more, but when you cut the opponent's normal pull ball, the return ball will not spin. When playing with this kind of rubber, the opponent will make many mistakes and it will be difficult for you to master the ball, which greatly reduces the viewing and entertainment value. Therefore, it is recommended that young people or beginners should not use it until they are old and can no longer run.

Anti-arc rubber - "Anti-arc rubber" is a rubber specially designed to deal with looping balls. The surface of this rubber is non-sticky, smooth and slightly astringent, and the ball is hit at a slower speed. , The arc is short, and it sinks and erratic after landing, making it difficult for the opponent to judge. It is especially effective against loop balls.

Introduction to the world-famous table tennis rubber cover

In a narrow sense, rubber cover is a set of rubber and sponge pasted together for sale; broadly speaking, DIY sponge and rubber paste on It is also often called rubber. Usually foreign brands mostly use rubber covers, while domestic manufacturers not only produce rubber covers, but also sell rubber and sponges separately.

Regular glue: The rubber of positive glue is the most important part that determines its performance. Classified according to the characteristics of rubber, the following common series are:

1. Friendship RITC802 series

Produced by Tianjin 729 Company. This series of rubbers includes three types: RITC802, RITC802-1, and RITC802-40. Among them, 802 and 802-1 are small-grain positive rubber. 802 has a comprehensive and balanced performance, with good speed and rotation. It is the most popular plastic for amateur players. 802-1 emphasizes more on speed and is relatively closer. The traditional positive rubber style is fast, the attack ball sinks, and the ball pull is relatively ruthless, but the rotation ability is slightly weak. Both types of rubber are sold as single rubber and rubber sets, and the prices are relatively economical. 802-40 is a large-grain positive glue that meets the requirements of arc-shaped positive glue. It has excellent overall performance and is often used by professional players, including Liu Guoliang in his later years.

802-40 has a strong ability to create spin, and its attacking power is greater than that of 802 and 802-1, but its sinkability is not very obvious and the ball path is more straight. It is difficult to buy single rubber for 802-40. It is usually sold in the form of rubber, and the price is slightly higher. There are two versions of the rubber, Japanese sponge and German sponge. The Japanese sponge version has slightly stronger fast-break performance and faster speed; the German sponge version has a deeper ball attack, greater power, and is easier to exert the power of small loop balls.

2. Double Happiness Series

Double Happiness was once the only choice for professional teams in the early years. Its classic positive rubber works such as 651 and 652, the old versions 651 and 652 before the 1980s and the later PF4-651 and PF4-652 are representatives of traditional positive rubber. The rubber particles have a high degree of vulcanization, small particles, and relatively fine patterns. . These two rubbers have fast ball speed, sinking ball attack, weak rotation ability, and poor ball pull. They are very typical Chinese rubbers, but unfortunately they are hard to find now. The performance of the new versions of 651 and 652 is not as good as before. Golfers who like to play strange balls can also try it. Double Happiness has focused on launching two positive rubber products in recent years: Thunder and Dragon Shadow, both of which are rubber-coated. Thunder basically inherits the characteristics of 652, but it fails to catch up with the former in terms of performance; Longying adapts to the trend of arcing, enlarges the particles, enhances the friction characteristics, and still retains the characteristics of 652 in terms of the gelling properties of the particles. With a little shadow, it can be considered as the big ball version of 652. Players who like to draw small arcs can consider choosing it. In addition, Double Happiness's Yunhai 12# sponge has been a classic sponge for positive rubber fast break for many years. Unfortunately, the output is not high and it is mainly supplied to professional teams, so it is not easy to see on the market.

3. Dawei 388B series

The retro-style rubber is divided into two types: 388B and 388B-1. They are sold in single rubber and rubber sets respectively, and the price is economical. 388B is a small-particle positive rubber. The particles are smaller than 802 and close to 651. The performance is average and the speed and rotation are pretty good. 388-1 is a large-particle positive rubber. The particle size is similar to that of 802-40. The rubber particles have a higher rubber content and are more raw rubber. They are extremely fast and have good rotation ability. It is an excellent fast-break positive rubber, the assault ball is very crisp, and the positive rubber flavor is relatively strong. In terms of performance characteristics, it can be used as a substitute for 652 to a certain extent. It is a piece of positive glue with excellent comprehensive performance.

4. HAMMER series

A positive rubber developed by Aibo Company is very similar to 802-40 rubber in appearance and has similar performance. It's fast, spins well, and is a good positive glue. Hummer is sold with single rubber, which can be used as a substitute for 802-40 to a certain extent. There are three main types of rubber. One is the PILI-4 fast-break sponge equipped with Japanese bombs, which is cheaper. The other two types are Neoneng I generation and Neoneng II generation rubber, which are members of the glue-free Neoneng series launched by Aibo. There are also two versions: Japanese sponge and German sponge. The Japanese sponge version has slightly stronger fast break performance, while the German sponge version is better at catching the ball and has greater power.

5.889 Series

Global 889, both Liu Guoliang and Chen Longcan used it in their early years. The spin performance is good, and the attack speed is slower than that of the 802, but the ball is strange and sinks obviously. Golfers who like to hit strange balls can choose it. There is also Xu Shaofa's 889 regular glue, which is similar to Global 889 and also takes the weird ball route.

6. TSP series

Two famous products are TSP Spinpips MD and TSP TYRANNO. Spinpips is the piece of plastic that Liu Guoliang has used the longest, with fast speed and strong rotation ability. It was later banned, and TSP re-produced TSP Spinpips MD as its replacement, which has strong spin but a relatively slow speed. This rubber ball has a straight path, which can better reflect the player's skill in playing the ball. So far, it is still one of the most popular rubbers for professional players. TYRANNO is a new high-energy rubber produced by TSP. It is fast, can attack the ball with force and sink, and has strong spin. But the price is more expensive.

6. STIGA Series

The famous positive glues include Clippa and Radical. The former was once a series of products sold with Clipper Wood baseboards, and Liu Guoliang once tried it. Clippa has a higher rubber content and is slightly more semi-raw rubber. It has stronger spin, faster speed and obvious sinking ability when attacking the ball. Radical is a newly produced internal energy positive rubber. The rubber particles are harder and the control is slightly worse, but the ball sinking ability is stronger.

7. BTY Butterfly Series

Butterfly's regular rubber can be considered to represent the characteristics of most imported regular rubber - there is no strict distinction between regular rubber and raw rubber, and they all prefer half-raw and half-positive rubber. Among them, the main ones that are widely used as positive glue are Challenger (used by Gao Jun), Speedy .P.O, IMPARTIAL, REIN (used by Chen Jing), etc. Among them, the first two pieces have outstanding fast break performance, while the latter two pieces have weirder shots and are often used as raw rubber. RAYSTORM is an internal energy positive glue recently launched by Butterfly. Its performance is similar to TYRANNO and others.

Note: Blade configuration - By the way, the blade configuration commonly used in positive-glue fast-break play. For positive-glue play, a harder seven-layer pure wood blade or a hard board with carbon fiber added is generally used.

The more commonly used configurations include: STIGA Clipper Wood (Liu Guoliang), BTY Clearfield (Chen Jing), BTY SK7, AVOLOX P700, BTY Shamada, BTY Chinese Real, Hongshuangxi Lao 08, 032, Shi'ao De Sword King, etc.

Sponge configuration - In addition to using rubber, you can also use single rubber and single sponge to DIY positive rubber rubber. Generally, it is enough to choose a sponge with a thickness of about 2.1mm and a hardness of about 35 degrees. Sponges that are commonly used and equipped with positive rubber include: Double Happiness 12# sponge, Japanese GP3 sponge, Bomb Destruction King-4 sponge, Bomb Thunder-4 sponge, TIBHAR Thunderbolt-3 sponge, DONIC sponge, German ESN positive rubber sponge, etc.

Reverse glue: Most of the imported reverse glue is made of rubber (referred to as jacket). The characteristics of most jackets are that the sponge is soft, easy to penetrate the board, and the rubber is thin and slightly hard, which is not very Sticky but astringent, the ball is released quickly, the ball is eaten well, the ball is pulled more punchy, and it is more suitable for friction-type loop shots. Domestic rubber sets are just the opposite. The sponge is hard, the elasticity is medium to high, and the rubber is thick and soft, relatively sticky. It can create strong rotation with very thin friction, and is suitable for playing methods with thin friction.

1. Friendship RITC729 series

One of the most popular domestic anti-adhesive products, there are many product models, and generally they have the characteristics of good stickiness and fast speed. RITC729 is a relatively comprehensive anti-glue, which can basically meet the needs of various playing styles; 729-2 highlights speed, has a fast ball speed, and is suitable for fast break and fast arc playing; 729-3 is relatively rare and is mainly used for Rubber for the foreign market; 729FX rubber is relatively thin and has good viscosity, suitable for use on the backhand; 729CREAM is called the premium 729, the rubber is soft and viscous, and can better exert the power of the loop ball; 729-40 is a premium rubber, and is made of high-quality rubber 729 rubber is combined with sponges from Germany or Japan to produce rubber with superior performance (Wang Nan once used it). In addition, there are products such as 729-2000 and 729SST. The HRS high-elastic sponge produced by 729 is cheap and has good elasticity. It is a low-priced sponge with good cost performance.

2. Butterfly series

The imported rubber cover with the highest market share only has rubber cover and does not provide a single sponge. The products are known for their wide variety. Famous ones include the Bryce series, Catapult series, Sriver G2 series, etc., which are internal energy series, and the Sriver series, which are non-internal energy series. The sponge of the butterfly cover is usually soft, very flexible, and has good elasticity; the rubber is usually hard, not sticky but relatively astringent, and the ball is released quickly. But there are also products with sticky rubber, such as Tackifire series and Flextra.

3. 999 series

There are two series: Global 999 and Sanjiu brand 999. The stickiness is very good, but the speed is relatively slow, which is suitable for arc play with thin friction.

4. Double Happiness Series

Double Happiness's Cyclonus series is one of the best-selling domestic anti-glue brands. It is divided into three types: Cyclonus, Cyclonus II, and Cyclonus III. Cyclonus is an early work and is now rare. The latter two are now the mainstream. The Cyclonus series has good spin and fast speed, which is very suitable for the feel and habits of Chinese players. It has superior performance in looping balls and is chosen by many professional players. Among them, Cyclonus II is designed for fast arc play and is used by Wang Liqin; Cyclonus III is designed for fast arc play and is used by many players such as Liu Guozheng and Guo Yue. The Cyclonus series is sold with single rubber or rubber sets. The rubber sets are also divided into the legendary national brand Kuangbiao, the provincial team Kuangbiao and the commercial version Kuangbiao. The first two are not for sale exclusively for the national team and the provincial team. They can sometimes flow into the market through certain channels and are more expensive. The latter is the mass-produced version of the rubber that is available on the market. Double Happiness's Yunhai series sponges are also very popular. Among them, Yunhai No. 20 sponge is equipped with Cyclonus III, and Yunhai No. 22 sponge is equipped with Cyclonus II, both in orange and blue. In addition to the Kuangbiao series, Double Happiness has also launched G666 (used by Wang Hao), TNT and other anti-adhesive rubbers, which have a good reputation.

5. Palio Series

Palio is one of the emerging manufacturers that has been more successful in rubber application. In terms of sponge configuration, it prefers the characteristics of imported sponges, which are light, flexible and transparent. Palio's Macro rubber, which is manufactured in Germany, has excellent performance and takes into account the advantages of domestic rubber and imported sponge. The CJ8000 series is cheap and high-quality. It is the lightest among domestic anti-adhesive products and can already compete with 729 in the low-price market. In addition, Palio has worked hard to develop a series of internal rubber rubber in recent years. The more famous ones include: AK47, HK1997, HADOU (overbearing), etc., with excellent performance and moderate price. It occupies a mainstream position in the domestic internal energy rubber market. Palio's SP series sponges are cheap and high-quality, and they are also very good domestic sponges. Their performance is closer to that of Japanese sponges.

6. STIGA series

STIGA has two most famous backhands. One is the STIGA MENDO, which Liu Guoliang has long used as a backhand. It is more suitable for pen-hand shots and horizontal hits. glue); the other one is INNOVA, which is known as the lightest reverse glue and is generally used on the backhand.

Carbo is a rubber with added carbon and has a good reputation.

7. YASAKA series

The most famous rubber is Mark V, which was once used by top players such as Gaiting and Ma Lin. Mark V rubber is light in weight and good at catching the ball. Compared with Japanese rubber, it is softer and easier to control, and is more suitable for the feel of Chinese players. Mark V2 is the internal energy version of Mark V. In addition, YASAKA has also launched two mid-to-low-price rubber covers, ERA and ZAP, which can be used as entry-level backhand jackets.

8. DONIC FORMULA series

There are three types: F1, F2, and F3, all of which are internally rubberized and have decreasing sponge hardness. The F series rubber has a metallic sound when playing with it, is easy to pass through the board, and has good strength. It is a very typical internal energy rubber. The rubber of the F series is very brittle and easy to break, so it is a consumable product. DONIC sells separate sponges with good performance. 9. TIBHAR series

Same as the bottom plate, the price is relatively expensive. The more common ones include: torpedo rubber, lightning strike rubber, infinite rubber, etc. TIBHAR's lightning sponge is also sold in single sheets and has good performance.

10. Aibo series

Beijing Aibo Sports and Nippon Bomb jointly launched a variety of internal rubber sets made of Japanese sponge domestic rubber. The main anti-glue products include: Veyron, Thunder, Magic, etc. The internal energy technology of Aibo sponge is relatively outstanding, but its matching performance with rubber is slightly inferior, so the overall performance of the internal energy rubber is still unable to match that of foreign products. Its reputation in the domestic market is slightly inferior to that of Palio's internal energy products.

German single sponge - the current sponge market is basically dominated by China, Japan and Germany. Domestic sponges are mainly represented by Double Happiness, which has been introduced sporadically before. The characteristics of the German sponge are that it has a pink-smooth feeling on the outside, is relatively thick, has very good toughness, and can penetrate the ball deeper. Compared with Japanese sponges, German sponges are not very violent, but are more solid and can better utilize the players' own strength. Representative works include: TIBHAR's lightning series, DONIC series single sponge, ESN cheetah series sponge, German wordless sponge, etc. You can often see an internal energy sponge from Germany's Tension on the market, which is moderately priced and has good value for money.

Japanese single sponge - Japanese sponge is characterized by its lightness, violence and soft elasticity. The representative works mainly include: bomb series, including the Destruction King series (this series is better for eating balls), thunderbolt series, carbon particle series, etc.; cherry blossom series, which uses different colors to distinguish the hardness of sponges; tulip series, etc. The GP series sponges launched by Golden Palm Company, which introduced Japanese technology, also have the characteristics of Japanese sponges, are relatively low-priced, and are common low-end configurations.

Raw rubber: There are relatively few models of raw rubber. Many imported raw rubbers have the characteristics of half raw and half regular. They can be used as either regular rubber or raw rubber, and have the characteristics of both. .

1. Friendship Series

The two types of raw rubber produced by 729 Company are relatively famous. One is the 563 series, which includes small particles of RITC563 and large particles of 563-1. This series of raw rubber has the strongest flavor and the rubber particles Translucent, soft, thin base, and extremely malleable. The 563 series rebounds quickly, has strong sinking properties, and has obvious reverse rotation. It is a very classic raw rubber. The other one is the 799 series, which is a semi-raw and semi-formal rubber. The raw rubber taste is not as good as that of 563, but it is usually used as raw rubber. The 799 return ball also has a more obvious sinking ability, and its ability to create spin is stronger than that of the 563, making it suitable for a more stable style of play.

2. TSP series

The most famous one is undoubtedly the TSP SPECTOL, which Wang Tao uses with his backhand. The sponge configuration is thicker, and the bounce is relatively stable; the particles are thick and short, and the ball speed is very fast; the ability to create spin is strong, even better than many domestic plastics. It is a type of raw rubber that is frequently used by professional players.

3. Other series

Many half-raw semi-positive rubbers in the Butterfly series, such as REIN, can be used as positive rubber, and some people use them as raw rubber; Stiga's Clippa and TSP's Tyrannosaurus also have obvious The characteristics of raw rubber; Dawei's 388C and 388C-1 are also very good raw rubber; DONIC YANG particles are relatively slender and soft, known as "small long rubber", and have relatively good anti-rotation and rebound sinking properties. Obviously; XuShaofa988 is also a relatively famous raw rubber, and its performance is also known for its weird performance; among the raw rubber equipped with internal energy sponges, Aibo's Kunpeng raw rubber is more famous; Double Happiness has recently launched Shining raw rubber.

Long glue: Long glue can be used with a thin sponge attached or without a sponge. Recently, many foreign manufacturers have launched long-lasting rubber sponges with internal energy. I personally have a conservative attitude towards this.

1. Friendship series

The more famous long-term rubber products of friendship are 755 and 837. Among them, 755 has harder particles and is better at attacking. 755 Faster is the long rubber used by Deng Yaping in her backhand. The 837 particles are softer and finer, so they control the ball better and are more stable for chipping.

2. Dawei series

There are two types: 388D and 388D-1. The latter has recently been rated as one of the domestic long rubbers with the best overall performance, with excellent offense and defense.

3. Double Happiness series

Double Happiness's early C7 and C8 were dubbed "super long rubber". The particles are slender and soft, with good anti-rotation characteristics and good for chipping. Strong rotation. The newly released C7 and C8 particles have become thicker, shorter and harder. They have good transferability and I personally think the control is better. They are considered to be more reasonable among the Double Happiness refurbished series. Double Happiness's recent long-glue products are mainly Yunwu and Yunwu III. The particles are long and soft, and the base skin is extremely thin. The reviews are pretty good.

4. Other long glues

For example, TSP's CURL (used by Zhu Shihe), TIBHAR's GRASS, JOOLA's POKER, etc. are more expensive and not cost-effective. Among the domestically produced series are XuShaofa's 989 and Aibo's Tianlang Long Glue, which also have a relatively good reputation. 979 produced by Tianjin Sanjiu is a medium-length rubber with good attack and easy control, making it suitable for beginners.

Arc-proof glue: It can be said that the least number of players use arc-proof glue, and the most famous one is Cai Zhenhua. There are very few models of anti-arc glue, and the only ones known so far are Youyi’s 804 and Aibo’s Demon Fox.

Introduction to the world-famous table tennis blade

Finished racket:

The so-called finished racket is a racket that has been sold as a set with the blade and rubber attached. Scholars use it more. The author recommends Tianjin Friendship Company's 729 series of finished products. Its price/performance ratio is higher among finished products. The price is generally tens of yuan, and its performance is sufficient for beginners. Since the technical style has not yet been formed, beginners can first buy a 729 finished racket and concentrate on practicing their skills. After reaching a certain level, you can then DIY a professional blade according to your own needs. This is a more economical and affordable equipment route.

The most distinctive feature of the 729 finished products is the Quintessence of China series, which uses Peking Opera facial makeup as the parquet handle. The overall look is very beautiful and the performance is also good. In addition, there are children's rackets specially designed for children and so on. In addition, some imported brands, such as Japanese Butterfly and Swedish STIGA, have also produced some finished rackets. The price of these rackets is generally tens of yuan, but the price-performance ratio of the 729 series is still a bit worse. Double Happiness once launched the Cyclonus series of high-end finished products, using Cyclonus series professional blades and Cyclonus series rubber for sale. The price is generally three to four hundred yuan, which is relatively low cost performance, and the overall combination is not reasonable, so it is not recommended to buy.

★ Imported bottom plate:

※ BUTTERFLY (Butterfly) Japanese brand

Famous for its rich products, its market share is one of the best among major brands in the world. Famous athletes also use butterflies to a considerable extent. Butterfly has an extremely wide range of blade models, covering the needs of various playing styles. Butterfly is also the first manufacturer to develop carbon rackets. Representative works include CLEARFIELD (used by Chen Jing), ADOLESCEN (used by Li Ju and Zhang Yining), Putan (used by Primorac), Kong Fangtan (used by Kong Linghui), Jin Zeshu, CYPRESS, etc. Butterfly likes to name its racquets after famous athletes to bolster its publicity. However, amateur golfers should not be superstitious about this. For example, the newly released Glinka Carbon and Ryu Seung-min single cypress have mixed reviews and not many positive reviews.

※ STIGA (Stica) Swedish brand

STIGA has the world's first-class bonding technology, and the blades it produces are known for their sufficient strength and occupy a considerable share in the national team. Large usage ratio. STIGA also pioneered the WRB technology and CR technology with hollow handles, and is one of the manufacturers with the strongest R&D capabilities. The representative works mainly include: Clipper Wood series (used by Liu Guoliang), OC series (used by Wang Liqin), Tube series, White Diamond and Red/Black Carbon King, etc. The newly launched "Crystal" and other new material blades are also very popular.

※ YASAKA (Yasaka) Swedish brand

Famous for making arc boards. Representative works include YASAKA EXTRA (used by Gai Ting, Ma Lin and Wang Hao), YASAKA OFFENSIVE (used by Li Jing), etc. Recently, soft carbon products represented by YCA have also been very popular, setting off a craze for carbon soft boards.

※ AVOLOX (Avalla) Swedish brand

It has an absolute market share among the previous generation of professional players. It is rumored that it is specially designed for the Chinese national team. It is produced by Swedish STIGA for its feel. It is famous for its softness and is more in line with the habits of Chinese athletes. Representative works include P500 (used by Wang Nan) and P700 (used by Wang Tao). In recent years, the AVOLOX brand has gradually declined, and the quality of its products is very unstable. The AVOLOX blade that has been tested by the Japan Table Tennis Association is also branded with the NITTAKU brand and becomes Nittaku-Avolox. It is said that its quality is better than ordinary AVOLOX, and the price is also more expensive.

※ TIBHAR (tall and straight) German brand

It is famous for its exquisite workmanship and balanced performance, but its price is also relatively expensive. Representative works such as Sam Carbon Emperor, four heavy artillery series, bomber series and so on.

※ DONIC German brand

The price is slightly lower than TIBHAR, but it also maintains the advantages of German products with excellent workmanship. Representative works Powerplay, Ultra Power, etc.

※ JOOLA (JOOLA) German brand

It is famous for its novel design. Representative works such as K series, PANTHER (Black Panther), etc.

※ DAKER (Dhaka), KOKUTAKU (Oizhou) Japanese brands

are famous for making single juniper rackets. They have specially launched horizontal single juniper and center straight single juniper to meet the needs of Players with different playing styles need it. Representative works such as DAKER70, DAKER90, KKT3008, etc.

※ NITTAKU (Nitagu) Japanese brand

Representative works such as Manchester (used by Waldner), tile carbon, etc.

★ Domestic blades:

Double Happiness (DHS) - one of the earliest table tennis equipment manufacturers in China. It once produced classic products such as Laoshunfeng, Lao 08, and Lao 032. In recent years, the performance of the blade has been relatively average. Products with good reputations include Tiangang series, Kuangbiao series, etc. The new Cyclonus King blade is rumored to be used by Wang Liqin and Wang Hao.

GALAXY—currently one of the brands with the best reputation for domestically produced blades. Known for imitating famous brand products. Galaxy has imitated the structure of many classic blades, and the imitation works should be said to be very successful, basically replicating the style of the original works. The level of violence is usually slightly less than the original, but the feel is more intimate. Famous such works include T series, K series, etc. Galaxy also has many good original works, such as the Big Mac series of veneers made of single-layer AYOUS, which has become a substitute for cypress veneer at a lower price; the H series is famous for its thickness and is suitable for single-sided play, etc. Galaxy is also one of the domestic manufacturers that provides personalized customization and racket repair and modification services. Galaxy's blade design is simple and elegant, its workmanship is second to none among domestic rackets, and it is the king in the mid-to-low price range.

SWORD - one of the three major brands of domestic blades, together with Galaxy and Pario. Shiaode has relatively strong R&D capabilities and is famous for its independent design of new material base plates. The King of Swords series, Crazy Sword series, and RG Extraordinary series blades independently designed by Shiaode have all achieved great success. In blind typing tests conducted by professional players, the performance evaluation exceeded that of imported blades. In terms of quality, it can be said to be the pinnacle of domestic rackets. Shiaode also provides services such as racket customization and racket repair and modification.

PALIO - the first domestic manufacturer to design blades for 40mm balls. The shape of the racket produced is slightly longer than that of conventional rackets. It incorporates the advantages of Japanese rackets to a certain extent and has greater killing power. The appearance design is relatively bright. The R5 and R7 blades that Pat Leo hired from Sweden in his early years have become hard-to-find classics. The more successful products in recent years include LGL (imitation of the racket used by Liu Guoliang), V series, S series, etc. Most of the products are known for their high quality and low price.

XIENTING - one of the earliest domestic manufacturers to sell soleplates separately. It once occupied an absolute market in the amateur world. In the early years, the pure wooden baseboards produced by Xi Enting were of very good quality, with rich product models and high cost performance. In recent years, Xi Enting has mainly entered the mid-to-low-price market, and the carbon and ceramic material rackets it launched are still very cost-effective. Xi Enting used laser sculpture technology, and the base plate produced has quite exquisite decorative craftsmanship.
