It doesn’t happen a ton, but every once in a while I’ll miss a shot hitting off the edge of my racket because I can’t quite get there. Also, with really shallow backspin and topspin shots a slightly bigger racket would be better. Just like in tennis, from the late 70s into the 80s the rackets got substantially bigger. Table tennis has seemed to basically stay the same as far as racket size. Any thoughts?
I've been playing table tennis for about 4.5 years now, but going to training casually I never thought of any equipment upgrades, so i went with prebuilt Atemi rackets. When quarantine was lifted in my country half a year ago I started signing up for local tournaments and I've started looking into the TT community and pro play. I've been loving it all and I realized that maybe with a better racket I could play better and train things that I couldn't do with cheaper rackets.
I'm an offensive player, I like FL handles, I'm used to western rackets and I've only used the shakehand grip in tourneys.
Im looking for a 50-100$ racket. I've been thinking about a Zoran Primorac blade, Rakza 7 forehand and Musa 3 backhand. This might be a dumb build, but for the first time I've tried looking into this reddit and online forums and its what I came up with.
Any help and feedback would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!
Claim while you can, i think its a bug

So I've been playing table tennis for the past 2 years using a pre-made racket, and now I'm willing to buy a custom racket, however I'm going on a budget. And my playing style is offensive on the forehand and a bit all round to attack on the backhand. Is this combination of rubbers good? I need those rubbers to do servers extremely well with some killing spinns, and not to much bouncy. QuantityPriceTotal
Is this a good combination?
Thought I'd share this cool quote I found about the birth of real table tennis footwork. Ichiro Ogimura was one of best players of 50s and was instrumental in coaching Sweden's best players, being the catalyst for Ping Pong Diplomacy and helping create the Unified Korean Table Tennis team of both South and North Korea to compete in the 1991 WC. And his advice is still correct, remember to move your feet!

I consider myself as an above intermediate player, I need help in selecting rackets. I stumbled upon these two,
- Donic sensation line 700 (damn it looks cool )
- GKI Kung fu DX
If you have any other suggestion you can let me know.
My play style is pretty aggressive so I think having lighter racket would be useful.
Also can someone tell me what speed, spin, control number means for rackets ?
Racket Fury first 3 difficulties playthrough
The game is crazy in the last 2 difficulties, but this is definitely the best table tennis game I’ve ever played. The only way to beat this is just having a real table tennis table and playing the real game. However, with this you don’t even need to have the space for a table or even a real table tennis partner and you can still play it and practice by yourself. It’s great and I believe this is what’s best about vr gaming (the ability to practice real-life sports and abilities through a game!). I can’t wait to see more well-done vr sports games like this. So far this is the only really good one I’ve played (note: I haven’t played Sparc yet). Holoball and Dream Match Tennis are not as good as Racket Fury. Sprint Vector is awesome too, but way too challenging for my taste. Racket Fury was great though. Anyone with a psvr and with some interest on playing table tennis should try it.
Hey everyone, i would like to buy a table tennis game but i'm not sure whice one should i get, eleven table tennis or racket fury?
i played table tennis about 2 - 3 in my life so i'm pretty bad...
and also non of my friends/family have a vr headset so the option to play with friends doesn't effect my decision.
and totally unrelated are there any billiard/pool games for the quest?

I’m really into ping pong but because of COVID all the nearby parks are closed so I’m looking to see which out of these two are better for online play
Are the physics in Eleven the same as the physics in Racket Fury? Or are they more similar to the "Arcade" physics in Racket Fury? I have heard differing perspectives.
The thing is, I find the "arcade" physics in Racket Fury to feel much more realistic than the "physics" physics setting. I'm considering getting Eleven purely for the multiplayer benefit (there's hardly anyone online in Racket Fury), but if the physics are the same as the "realistic" physics setting in Racket, then I might pass on it.
I was thinking of get either one as my next game. I was wondering what would be the best choice as a table tennis game. Ill even add Racket: NX as a option.
I have been playing table tennis in real life for many years and I consider myself quite good at it. COVID-19 has made virtual table tennis one of the best VR games for workout. I bought Eleven Table Tennis and Racket Fury. ETT definitely has the best physics, but it's less fun than Racket Fury. The biggest problem of ETT is the AI's behaviour, or its playing style. It is chopping all the time, or put it in another way, it adds a lot of spin in each of its attack even at medium level. This makes the bouncing of the ball unpredictable and hard to receive for the human player. Sure I can beat AI at advance level, but I can't do a long rally with it. The rally is usually over within 3 rounds, and then either the AI or me will miss the ball. If you are pretty good at table tennis or other games, you will know the real fun of the game is not just for winning, but also the "flow", which is the heart of many games. The flow creates a rhythm and makes the game immersive. The flow is also like a dialogue between two players, or a tacit agreement beween two partner dancers. To achieve the flow, the player also needs to be able to predict the movement of the opponent and the route of the ball. Too much spin makes the ball too unpredictable, and it will break the rally and spoils the flow.
There are other problems related to this over chopping and spinning. In real life, if the opponent do chopping, I will see his movement and know his direction of chopping, and I know the direction of the spin of the ball. But in ETT AI does chopping in a hidden way. He will do a chopping without a chopping movement. Thus I can't do any predictions. I can only react until the ball has hit my court, and it's always too late. Yes I can still save the ball, as I am really good at table tennis, but it's uncomfortable. It's not the natural flow, and it's not real.
So the physics is realistic, but in real life we don't play table tennis that way, and in that sense it's not realistic gameplay, and it's not fun. In contrast Racket Fury does not have such realistic physics, but it can create long rallies even against strong AI opponents. I also like the training mode of Racket Fury very much, as I can set the landing position of the ball from the AI. This is exactly the same training mode as in real life. The real coach will keep hitting the ball to a certain fixed position for the trainee to develop a kind of muscle memory. This is even necessary for advanced players. And this training p
