The Truth Regarding Table Tennis 101 - Discover Great Benefits Now

By: Nathan Knightley

My father was always a very practical man. One of the things that he told me that always stayed in my mind is that you should always do the right job with the right equipment. I always try hard to live by this maxim in my own projects. I've applied it to everything in my work, as well as most of my hobbies. What I had never applied it to, however, was table tennis equipment.

You see, for a good many years, I have been a table tennis passionate. It all began when I moved to college. I lived in a dorm that had very old tennis equipment in the basement. The table tennis paddles were almost literally falling apart. The boards were uneven, the nets sagged, and every time the ball hit the table, it wobbled. Nonetheless, we had many great games. Around the time that I moved out, the dorm decided to purchase new table tennis equipment. I got to take the old stuff with me, and soon I had it installed in my basement.

I loved playing on that shaky old table, but it appeared like I could just get to a certain level. I never thought it was the ping pong equipment. I thought it was the way I was playing. You see, I was not the greatest athlete. How could I guess that the table tennis equipment was what was holding me back?

In fact, I wouldn't have guessed except that I got to play at an area table tennis tournament. My brother, who is very serious about the game, invited me along. The table tennis equipment there was a very high quality one. People had table tennis paddles made with machinery that I had never seen before. The interesting thing was, as soon as I played on their table tennis equipment, I understood why I had never practiced some of the best techniques.

Learning advanced ball control is impossible on a table that is warped and slanted. Although I had a good game for my particular set of table tennis equipment, when I was playing on a regulation table, my game was off. I don't have to mention that I was eliminated early on. The first thing I did was get new table tennis equipment. You can bet I will do better next time!
