If you want to assemble a table tennis racket, you face a daunting task. There are countless combinations of table tennis rubbers and blades for a table tennis player to choose from.
On the other hand, long-time club players or demanding hobby players want to assemble an individual TT racket. In this article, we will show you how it works on our website and what to consider.
When Is a Table Tennis Racket Configurator Necessary?
The development and buying behavior of a table tennis player typically proceed in 4 steps. Accordingly, the playing equipment is gradually adapted to the increasing level of play.
Step 1: Getting to Know Table Tennis as a Hobby Player
Anyone taking a walk in the park or glancing at a school playground will quickly discover one or more table tennis tables. But the chances are also high that you’ll find a table tennis table in your neighbor’s yard or in your own garage.
In Germany, table tennis is one of the most popular recreational sports with millions of hobby players. You can quickly find yourself in an exciting table tennis round at a garden barbecue party. Or table tennis is played during breaks at work or school to pass the time.
At this point, players don’t think much about the table tennis equipment they’re using. They simply grab the nearest table tennis racket, which often has little speed or grip. It’s more about having fun than playing table tennis seriously.
Therefore, for such occasions, inexpensive ready-made rackets or table tennis racket sets are suitable. These can be obtained in the price range of €10-€30.
Difference Between Ready-Made Rackets & Professional Table Tennis Rackets
Ready-made rackets usually have no-name blades and very simple rubbers that cannot be purchased separately. In the best case, the quality of the equipment is slightly below that of professional equipment.
In contrast, professional table tennis rackets are used by all club players up to professional table tennis players. The branded blades and rubbers can be individually assembled. To facilitate the entry into table tennis, we offer professional rackets in the all-round range, which are ideal for learning techniques and offer a lot of control.
Step 2: Ambitious Hobby Players or Club Beginners
Once table tennis fever has taken hold, you will find your way to the nearest table tennis club. The first thing you often hear there regarding the racket you brought with you is: “You won’t get far with this department store racket.” Even without this advice from long-time club players, ambitious hobby players will notice that the nicely packaged ready-made rackets quickly reach their limits in terms of play.
The reason for this is that the quality of a branded or professional table tennis racket is significantly better. It offers more grip and better rebound characteristics. The rubbers for these rackets are purchased separately and glued with a special table tennis adhesive.
