Do you believe that all TT tables are the same and easy to choose, People who think this way usually regret making an expensive mistake that could cost them a lot of money! Please refrain from being that person. Choosing Table Tennis Tables can be a difficult task because you must be familiar with a number of technicalities and parameters. But don't be worried! When it comes to selecting the right Table Tennis Table, we are here to make your life easier. Here are some basic and simple parameters to keep in mind when checking a TT table. So, let's get this started! 1. Area We must consider the dimensions of the table as well as additional clearance in order to play the sport freely and safely. In general, we recommend a mini TT Table for small spaces (up to 1.5 m x 0.7 m). Dimensions of a Small TT Table We generally recommend a medium-sized TT table for medium-sized spaces (2 m x 1 m). Dimensions of a Medium-Sized TT Table You can use the full-size TT table for any surface (2.7 m x 1.5 m). 2. Thickness The thickness of the tabletop determines how well the ball bounces on the table. In general, the greater the bounce, the thicker the tabletop. However, it also depends on the type of playing surface used, which can be either wood or aluminum. If you want to build a mini TT table or a medium-sized TT table, a tabletop thickness of 10mm with a (wooden surface and metal legs) is sufficient. If you want a full-size table, the tabletop should be at least 12 mm thick so that the ball bounces effectively. When the ball is dropped 30 cm above the table on a full-size TT table, it should bounce back to a minimum of 21 cm. However, for competition players, the tabletop thickness should be greater than 22cm. Check out our ITTF Approved Table Tennis Table. 3. Wheels or no wheels? Do you plan to use the space you have set aside for Table Tennis? If so, a foldable table without wheels will suffice. To top it all off, they are nearly 40% less expensive than a table with wheels. If there is a space that is used for multiple activities, such as Yoga, Karate, Zumba, Table Tennis, and so on, it is always a good idea to have a TT table with wheels that can be completely folded once you are finished burning calories on the table. 4. Leg Styles TT tables with wooden legs are commonly sold by local brands. They are a less expensive option, but be careful because they tend to collapse after prolonged use. It is always preferable to use iron/aluminum legs rather than wooden ones. 5. Structure This is the area beneath the tabletop. For the best bounce, it is always best to choose one made of iron or aluminum. 6. Approval by the ITTF/Local Federation The TT table must be approved by either the country federation (FFTT, TTFI, etc.) or the ITTF standard. Always look for it before investing your money down on a TT table. Take a look at Our Table Tennis Table Series. We hope that this new article will help you in selecting the best TT table for you.
