Table Tennis bats paddles rackets blades

If you don't find the best butterfly paddle reviews here they don't exist anywhere.

It is often asked which is the best blade for Butterfly Tenergy rubber.

When there are so many table tennis rackets for sale on the market and many of which being so expensive it often is important to read around to find what to pair up with a tenergy.  Before we answer this question lets quickly define what a blade is. So many names to use I thought we should start with defining these terms.

What is a table tennis bat?

Basically, a "laminated" wooden racket covered with rubber on one or two sides depending on the grip of the player. This is called either a paddle, racket, blade or a bat depending on where in the world the game is being played. In the USA the term "paddle" is common, in Europe the term is "bat," and the official ITTF term is "racket."

Table tennis rules

Table tennis regulations allow different surfaces on each side of the racket. The different types of surfaces provide various levels of spin or speed, or in some cases, nullify spin. For example, a player may have a rubber that provides much spin on one side of his racket, and no spin on the other side of the racket. By flipping the racket in play, different types of returns are possible. To help a player distinguish between different types of rubber used by his opposing player, international rules specify that one side must be red while the other side must be black. The player has the right to inspect his opponent's racket before a match to see the type of rubber used and what color it is. Despite high speed play and rapid exchanges, a player can see clearly what side of the racket was used to hit the ball. Current rules state that, unless damaged in play, the racket cannot be exchanged for another racket at any time during a match.

Tenergy Club bats directory

What I propose is that we add "child pages" for which rubbers you use and compare how they play on different bats.

This page is a work in progress so there is always more to come!  My new idea is to add titles here that I would like Tenergy Cub members to use as topics.  You can just add a child page using the topic as the title.  I may write some myself.  Topics that will come shortly, include:

  • Which table tennis rubbers are suitable for timo boll zlf blade
  • Butterfly tournament TT bats
